NATO took command and co-ordination of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in August 2003. ISAF is NATO’s first mission outside the Euro-Atlantic area. ISAF operates in Afghanistan under a UN mandate and will continue to operate according to current and future UN Security Council (UNSC) resolutions. ISAF’s mission was initially limited to Kabul. Resolution 1510 passed by the UNSC on 13 October 2003 opened the way to a wider role for ISAF to support the Government of Afghanistan beyond Kabul.

The aim of this operation? Good question…
I hope that someone knows the answer. Its strange that everytime peace is needed, someone starts a war. Obviusly this is not a war, is a “tactical action to prevent war”.
I really don’t understand. Maybe I’m the one who don’t want understand, so, someone, pleeeeese, let me know why.
