#2 Just the fact that Hekmatyar is still breathing speaks to his resilience. He has always made his intentions clear through both words and deeds. His connections alone should lend concern to his stated adversaries. And can anyone other then Hek himself know with certainty the size and capacity of his arsenal that reamins in mothballs?
It would be foolish to underestimate the threat this man poses.

#3 The fact that he's done absolutely NOTHING militarily in more than two years speaks volumes for his impotence. If he had thirty people, he'd have done SOMETHING. Hek is kept around as a boogey man to scare children and rattle cages, nothing more. The sooner he gets his raisins, the better.
