3 No, Ebbolump Glomotle9608. It's a religious title, meaning that he's learnt enough of the Koran and the Hadith and Sunnah to give sermons. I suspect it's a courtesy title given to everyone who went to a madrassah.

6 Think Of "Mullah" like a Kentucky "Colonel", doesn't mean a damn thing.

12 The Mullah boys must think that 10,000 poorly trained and equipped light infantry, unsupported by air or artillery, is shocking news. Planning is ongoing for advertised Spring offensive, Mullah boys; please give your families a final good-bye before you start the Spring offensive. You should not expect to see them again.

13 we should be dropping leaflets over the NWFP and Baluchistan telling them to "come to your ugly death. no virgins, grapes, or houris await you, only a moldering grave after the buzzards and worms clean your bones. Signed, your NATO masters"

lets see the enthusiasm level after that :-)
