"ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Oct. 20 — In their words and their actions, Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers are revealing a military strategy that relies on U.S. reluctance to take casualties and the legendary ability of Afghan guerrillas to endure prolonged hardships in the mountains of the rugged country."

I believe when President Bush said we'll smoke em out he meant it.

The Ranger raid was intended to force those little cockroaches out of their mountain hiding places!  They will have to expend their pathetic resources to protect their command and control.  Then they become EASY targets!

Like the song by the Stones - TIME IS ON MY SIDE (the US's side that is!).

IMO we can make this thing our hobby for the next few years.


Men on the run are first thrilled by it..........but I'm sure living in a cave will wear on them.

I see a whole new generation of US Warrior coming out of this.  Tougher, battle tested, with lots of sniper practice.  Put a team overlooking every cave & selectively take them out with a Barrett.  Nothing like one well placed shot to quell civil disobedience....
