Here's my other major issue with us being in the Middle East. Well maybe I got more then one more. lol. But ... if you talk to the military you will see that our gov. nor the military are passing on any information to the public over there. Are we not allowed to use their airways? not allowed to produce news papers? not allowed to drop leaflets? the general public does not know why we are there, has no clue as to what we are doing, and does not want to have anything to do with us.

Then a few Taliban officials get upset over anything they simply use the public by spreading rumors and gossip to get the public to react.

My next issue is .... at some point does it not dawn on the citizens and lower level Taliban that the leaders fail to endanger their lives or livelyhood? How about some leadership by example. Are the general public and lower level Taliban not worth anything and that it's ok for them to die but the top Taliban are too important. Too good. I think not.
