Yeah, I agree. I’be got some buddies over there right now in the thick of it, and there have been some problems with the isolated U.S. outposts, specifically with resupply and relief in place. I’m guessing that the Taliban took advantage of the outpost’s location, as part of the larger offensive, and then resorted to ambush tactics, using the local schools and and houses for cover, rules of war be damned.
It is such a shame that suicidal idiots live amongst us. It is costing our side big time.
