#2 Hard to tell whether the resistance was stiff or the Pak army units were not very good (or just unlucky), but in the past when Taliban/al Quaeda resistance gets really stiff it's because you're getting close to someone important. Otherwise, they prefer to hit and change into their burkas and run.
