#1 "I was wondering whatever happened to The Secret Army of Doom..."

Well obviously, they aren't so secret anymore :-)

But seriously folks, there's a recent report in the news that we're going to draw down our presence in Afghanistan, and move to more construction projects, nation building and the like. Wondering if that's such a good idea when we're still finding cells of Taliban fighters and weapons caches. Anybody really think that the new Afghani army can handle this?

#3 Where is Hekmatyar? It looks like Hek-the-Hizbi is fighting to the last Pashto. He spent the last two wars in Iran. What a brave jehadi!
