That chopper looks like it has a snarky, criminal who is smoking something. Take a careful look.

I thought the Taliban supported the death penalty for trimming or shaving one’s beard.

The Taliban is still there , the US. trades with Vietnam, and we’ve tucked in our tails and gone home. Going farther back the Brits no longer have Regulars stationed in this country

It is very difficult to defeat religious fanatics, just look how the American evangelicals and Baptist racist hypocrites have destroyed first their own Christan values, and now America and democracy.

Just like water buffalo looks like a viet cong-minus a few hundred pounds…

The windfall of weapons will be worth it

Vance will be shaving off HIS beard with toenail clippers, once he realizes what he’s gotten himself into

Probably a cigarette.

Just like Viet Nam; We spend $50,000 to $100,000 on ordance to take out ONE enemy!

When the locals you are protecting and the enemy you are fighting are the same society under multiple leaders, it might be best to just focus on the leaders.

And to think that the Taliban are ruling Afghanistan again. What a tragedy.

Are there no scissors in Afghanistan?
