#3 I doubt they abandoned their uniforms. Abandoned their posts, commanders, and mates, sure, but not the uniforms.

#4 I hazard a guess , 2 weeks from now there is an incursion into Pakistan from Afganistan by the ANA . Lots of women and children killed.

#7 Qari Mohammad Yousuf needs to provide proof to be believeable. How about some uniforms? No, not those with the bullet holes.

#9 According to the Taliban, the deserters reportedly brought two rockets and three sub-machineguns as well as a quantity of money.

That's it from 50 guys? I'da said thanks, then shot them for being morons.

#10 No way! Our great leader, President G W Bush (May Jesus Walk With Him) is loved by all Afghans and Pakistanis.

And we are winning the war on terror because of our great leader.

Shout down the President and you are on the fighting side of this hillbilly.

#13 Our troll comes from a wonderfully sleazy domain out of Plano, Texas.

Don't know if there are any hillbillies there, but there seems to be lots of Russians.
