Maps of Insurgent Activity in Afghanistan
Frontline has a map of insurgent activity in Afghanistan by group. The groups shown are the Taliban, the Haqqani Network (Wahabbi Afghans who fought against the Soviets and later along side the Taliban), Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (the semi-independent Pakistan branch of the Taliban), and and forces loyal to Gulbuddin Hekmatyar (fought against the Soviets, the other Mujaheddin leaders, against the Taliban, and later fought for the Taliban).

I can understand low risk"-- that's the area the Government controls -- and I can understand high risk. But I wonder what constitutes "medium" risk?
Anonymous,
I *believe* medium risk would be something like the government has only nominal control while the real control is held by the local government/tribe which may or may not have the ability to keep Taliban, et al out.
