#9  D *** NG IT, so has Green Beret Colonel JOHN WAYNE called in "PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON" = now AC-130 SPECTRE on 'em???

versus

* ION WMF > US COUNTERROR AGENCIES: DESPITE A MASSIVE 2003 US-SUPPOR SAUDI DOMESTIC CRACKDOWN, THE US IS NOT ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT AL QAEDA STOPPED OR CANCLED THEIR 2003 PLAN TO STEAL THREE [or more?] RUSSIAN NUCLEAR WARHEADS FOR PURPOSES OF TERROR, ESPEC AGZ CONUS. AL QAEDA BELIEVED TO HAD SET UP A "VERY ADVANCED" SECRET NUCLEAR LABORATORY IN KANDAHAR [up to 100 Persons = "Nuc Specialists" working on DEV, MODIFYING NUCTERR TECHS].

ABOVE INTEL SCOPE = The significance of US-NATO/ALLIES capturing + destroying Kandahar per se as a MILTERR CONVENTIONAL, LOGISTICS, + NUKE-WMDS STRATEGIC BASE OR CAMP CANNOT BE UNDERESTIMATED, EVEN IFF NOTHIN IS FOUND.

Again, as times before, not all MSM-Net News Repors + US-Allied PRE-, POST-911 INTEL on AL Qaeda + Radic Islam trying to procure BLACK MARKET NUKES-WMDS, espec Cold War Soviet-Commie Bloc, HAVE NOT BEEN WHOLLY DISCOUNTED OR REJECTED.

IOW, AL QAEDA OR OTHER > the scenario exists that these may already possess an unknown or uncertain number of Nukes = NBC-CBRN(E) WMDS even iff officially denied by the GOVT-PRESS.

#8   If we are not there to win, could someone please explain to me why the fuck we are still there?

So that the current Administration isn't charged with abandoning the war, a cynic might say.

The gutting and demoralization of our military is just an added benefit, the cynic might add.

#7  "We want the Taliban!"

Wait till they rape his sons, his daughters
and his wives as they
saw his neck with a pen knife...

#5  why aren't bombs raing down on this place?

My guess is that they have a designated civilian who walks around the camp with no visable arms.

Best defense money can buy.

#1  Geez, whodda thought this was gonna happen?
I'd have rigged that place to go up like a skyrocket as soon as they opened the first bunker door. And then have every drone in Afghanistan around to clean up what was left.
