#1 Of course, some of the bodies may be giving off radio signatures that can be detected as far away as Canada...

#9 The US position on the Taliban is that they were representatives of a "failed state," thus undeserving of any recognition. However, I would return them personally to Mullah Omar and bin Laden.

#10 Might make for good local TV. Talibunnies showing up to meekly accept the bodies of their fallen. Stack em high and let the Talibs rummage around looking for their kin. Show it on Afghan TV every night for a few weeks.
