Talk about what really happened
      #3132 - 09/27/04 04:31 PM

Nestled in the terrorist enclave of Dai Chopan, the Taliban wage a lethal campaign against democracy. Murderous sprees at Afghan voter registration sites have paralyzed citizens and police officers and UN and aid workers. A perilous military offensive dubbed Operation Asbury Park begins, and after six days of continuous battles, the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit heads to a known ambush site, one the Taliban has used to launch its fury before.

But the convoy will not make it to its destination.

Along route to the insurgent hideout, 100 Taliban let loose on the unsuspecting Marines. Instead of the usual hit-and-run tactic, the rebels embed themselves in the foothills of Dai Chopan and engage the MEU in a relentless ground assault. It is their ultimate stand. If the Marines lose this battle, the insurgency is undoubtedly reinforced. But if the MEU manages to overpower the terrorists, it may well break the Taliban’s back.

It is kind of ironic that people think that just because they can bomb a Taliban Hideout into the ground, that they can break the will of these people.

In all due respect, that's a dream. You can't break the will of these people. They have been brought up in a culture which over-exhuberantly lays blame to the Western World.

Their men leave their homes and families on a quest that "Allah" has given them. They will go to do these "great things" but ironically leave their families to suffer the consequences.

Their children are taught from birth that women are inferior, that "Allah" is right, that the Sheik is unquestionable and that the Westerners are Infidels whom it is okay to attack.

This is quite similar to the Rhodesia(now Zimbabwe) incident in which Robert Magabé influenced the black population that it was perfectly logical and legal to kill the white people and claim their land back.

You can't beat this kind of plague. You can only continuously fight it!
