I'd say General Patton would have been darn proud of our Soldiers. Those puny cowardly terrorists hightailed it out of there with heavy losses and nothing to show for it. They then had to hide behind women and children in homes and mosques. What puny little men those Jihadists are.
You are right, the terrain is very difficult. We expect a lot from our Military and they are performing brilliantly.
