joint chiefs of staff chairman mike mullin has said that kandahar is as critical to the mission in afghanistan as baghdad was in iraq. later we'll be joined by dexter filkins and greg jaffe who have just returned from reporting in the region but i'm pleased to have general david petraeus. >> pleased to be with you, charlie. it is the birthplace of the taliban, also where the 9/11 attacks were originally conceived. that's where they were planned. so it has enormous importance to the taliban and to extremists writ large. it will not be a hub-to-hub offensive. this is not going to be something like the clearance of ramadi or, say, southwestern baghdad. this in fact is as much political as it is military, and in fact, that's why it was so important that president karzai went down to kandahar a few weeks ago, met with 1,500 of the tribal elders, leaders, political notables and others, and in fact, heard from them, some of them criticism of the afghan government, criticism of president karzai, president karzai in turn forthrightly -- this was all on the television camera, this was not a hand-picked
