You are a lean, mean posting machine!

Thanks for the info. You read my mind. I was wondering how the two forces measured up.

Do you think Iran will accept Afghanistan's fighter jets like they did with Iraq's 10 years ago?

If by accept you mean steal, then yes. I don't think that there are all that many left though, and most of the pilots were Pakistani's who left the country weeks ago.

I imagine that by now all of their remaining functional heavy arms, if assembled in one place, can be taken in at a glance. Not much left to look at.

Well, I have to say, if I were in command of a force like this and were facing an onslaught by the US of A if I didn't do this or that, you can bet your last dollar that I'd surrender whatever GW & Co. wanted, because between casualties and desertion, there won't be much left of this ragtag bunch, by the time GW & Co. is through and gone to attend to other places, like Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, and whoever else is left.

God Bless America! Time to kick some major Taliban butt.
