Every time I read an article about the resistance to American occupation or ‘nation-building’ in Afghanistan I always notice some line like this:
Afghan forces tightened security in Khost and were stopping cars and searching them. American attack helicopters were circling above the city, the official said.
U.S. forces based in eastern Afghanistan are hunting al-Qaida and Taliban fugitives near the Pakistan border. Unknown attackers sometimes fire rockets and other weapons at the troops or their bases, but they rarely hit their target.
Is it really necessary whenever describing new attacks against American Special Forces goons that Afghan rocket attacks rarely hit their targets? It makes me think the US is afraid people will get the idea that anyone can successfully oppose the American military. I hope the Afghans are successful in driving the US military out of their country. Let’s hope no one else has to dies because of this stupidity.
