The U.N. reckons Marjah has the world's highest concentration of opium production. So Operation Moshtarak is more than a military offensive; it is also the biggest counternarcotics operation ever attempted. It marks a new emphasis by the White House and the Pentagon on choking off the Taliban from their drug funds...
...sophomore certainly held up her end of the bargain. Cao took the first set, 6-4, and battled in a second-set loss, 6-3, setting up a super tiebreaker. Juricova pulled away for a 10-4 win, but Cao proved that she belongs on the national stage...
