But. Who is winning the “long war” when a $115,000.00 dollar Hellfire fired from a 4.1 million dollar Predator drone is used to blow up a $600.00 pickup truck driven by an illiterate terrorist with an AK-47 and a $900.00 RPG?

Toyota?

"Toyota?"

Actually the Toyota War was Chad-v-Libya in 1986-87. Chad beat Libya's tanks using Toyota pickups with a bunch of guys riding in the bed carrying French-made MILAN shoulder-fired anti-tank missiles.
