The fact no one realized the unexploded cluster bomb warning wrappers and the food packets were the same color was totally ill-thought out!

So there! We do agree (at least in part) [img]smile.gif[/img]

The idea of a large land assault against Afghanistan has frightening connotations not only because in modern war we love to use airpower to minimize troop casualities, but also if the "then mighty" Soviet Union couldn't control Afghanistan who could? Remember, the Soviets didn't mind getting "down and dirty" in ways most of the world frowns upon.



I didn't mean LARGE land forces Ronn. I meant commando-type action. If you have good intellignece info, and commandoes standing by ready, they just go in and get 'em. Or have I seen too many American films, lol?!

And yes - we DO sometimes agree, don't we!
