Afghanistan rejects grim U.S. intelligence forecast as baseless --- (Reuters) - Afghanistan on Monday rejected as baseless a U.S. intelligence forecast that the gains the United States and allies have made in the past three years will be significantly rolled back by 2017. -- The U.S. National Intelligence Estimate also predicted that Afghanistan would fall into chaos if Washington and Kabul failed to sign a pact to keep an international military contingent there beyond 2014. -- President Hamid Karzai's spokesman dismissed the U.S. forecast, reported by the Washington Post on the weekend, and suggested there was an ulterior motive for it. -- "We strongly reject that as baseless as they have in the past been proved inaccurate," Faizi told Reuters. - More, at: http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/12/30/us-afghanistan-usa-idUSBRE9BT0DJ20131230
