But bush keeps insisting the Taleban "are no more"...
Afghan Army Plagued By Desertions

Hundreds of soldiers have deserted the Afghan National Army complaining of poor conditions and fierce resistance from the Taleban, US officials say.

Gee. That's not what bush says. Over & over again.


PS: It's still a war; On Wednesday two US soldiers were killed and eight others wounded in a rocket attack near the border with Pakistan.

4. What happened
to Laura solving the US gang problem or whatever the hell she was supposed to be doing before she saved the Afghan women? Maybe she's a multitasker.

3. We will now be fighting the Talaban and alQueda for the next
1000 years.
Or when the United States is dissolved, which ever comes first.

Compliments of George w. bu$h

6. Oh hooray....
He and the rest of them are probably profiting off of the Taliban factions and preparing to fight them abroad with the christian taliban instead.
