Kabul is just as close to Pashtun/Taliban strongholds as Kandahar is.

Distribution of Pashtuns...

Nonetheless Kabul is heavily non-Pashtun, and has been relatively quiet. But youre just trolling, why am I responding to this?

I wondered the same thing before responding to him. It took all of 20 seconds on Google to understand the issue yet he is still obtuse. Must be a troll.

ISAF deployments in Afghanistan. As you can see, the French were right down in Pashtun country with the Americans.

you havent been paying attention, have you? Having grown bored with pro-US trolling, Drake is doing a grand experiment to see if he can pull off pro-French trolling.


Doing a right good job of it, I'd say.

But Kabul itself is not mainly Pashtun, Kandahar is.

Kabul is a more inviting and worthwhile target for the Taliban, being the capital of Afghanistan and all. And it's just as vulnerable to attack as Kandahar, being close to Pakistan and former al Qaeda/Taliban strongholds like Tora Bora. That's why the best soldiers (Americans and French) are stationed in the east.

I could argue that point (although I can argue about breakfast...)

Asher has been permabanned by Ming. Ming called him a "cancer to the site". My thread on the subject was deleted in seconds. Only someone who's as big a ***** as a French-Canadian would let this go down without a fight.

So let's see:

We're fighting a war where an "ally" provides a haven to the enemy everytime we attack.

Our troops are getting called in to attack the "Taliban," which too often turns out to be simply a rival tribe.

We have no specifics for when we can declare victory and go home.

It's a NATO mission, but not all of NATO is willing to commit to it.

Yup, I can't understand either why Canadians are not supporting this mission.

The Pakistanis seem to be too busy fighting the Taliban in the streets of Islamabad, it will be a while before they can reclaim control of NWFP.

Wait, is this some sort of metaphor about the current Asher situation?
