One B-52 is real exciting to the Northern Alliance. One B-52 collapses the Taliban front line.
Remember Vietnam where they sent so many B-52s at once that they could hardly get out of each other's way.

No amount of bombing is going to bring the Taliban to submission as there were few targets of military value to begin with.The air campaign did not clinch the Gulf War, that fray was only won when American ground forces enetered the action. Only a massive invasion of Afghanastan will do the trick, and although I pray that I am wrong, I do not think the American public will accept a prolonged, high casualty ground action. History repeats itself and the US all too often fails to heed the lessons of its past mistakes.
