Warlord Baba Jan presses for stake in Afghanistan
At Bagram Afghanistan General Baba Jan hosts US officers and Afghan fighters with mutton and vodka, criticizing the looming loya jirga as neither democratic nor Islamic. He commands about 2,000 fighters north of Kabul near Bagram, works closely with the United States, and seeks a larger share in the new government while vowing no attack on its leadership. His forces guard the base and hold contracts, with Taliban pressure easing after years of front-line combat near Bagram.
