[edit] Battle of Chora

Hallo Eggy, looking at your username, I understand you speak Dutch? Heb je ergens bronnen voor dat de zelfmoordaanslag op Timo Smeehuijzen een onderdeel was van de slag om Chora? Groeten, Adnergje (talk) 15:58, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Elsevier wrote an extensive article on the Battle for Chora. The fact that a suicide attack took place right before a major offensive might suggest it's the starting point of the offensive. To give a first blow to the Dutch troops in the region. http://www.elsevier.nl/magazine/artikel.asp?artnr=186291&jaargang=64&week=1
or if you do not have a premium account uruzgan.weblog has the same article: http://oruzgan.web-log.nl/uruzgan_weblog/2008/01/uruzgan_het_gev.html
The same point was argued by an American war correspondent/blogger David Axe who was embedded at Kamp Holland in TK during the offensive. He wrote alot of articles on the fighting on his blog: http://warisboring.com/ EggyNL (talk) 14:33, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
