Reuters? BS alert.

Kandahar is NOT a Taliban stronghold. The people of Kandahar were horribly oppressed when the Taliban had the stronghold over Kandahar. But then the US and coalition forces stepped in a kicked Taliban arses out into the mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

What is happening now, is the Taliban have nowhere else to run, and are trying to retake Kandahar.

Those sneaky devils. Early on in WOT, two Canadians picked up something off the ground and it burned the skin off their fingers and hands. From that point on, everyone had to wear gloves if they were going to pick something up.

Early on, Freedom Forces learned they'd best bring in their own water for not only US/Coalition Force Use, but also for the civilians.

Rush Limbaugh visited Kandahar.

A Taliban stronghold? The Taliban wishes.

Is Reuters up to doing more tricks?
