395684 04: General Babajan, a commander in the opposition Northern Alliance, speaks with a reporter October 9, 2001 at a position at the Bagram Airbase 30 miles north of Kabul in northern Afghanistan. American forces may use this position for military and humanitarian operations, if General Babajan's troops can--with U.S. help--force Taliban fighters back toward Kabul.
