Huh?? Let me see "insulting cowboys" and "bureaucrats"? Where do you get this stuff?? A man gave his life protecting this country and this is your response?
For the record, The prisoners were disarmed (supposedly) by the Northern Alliance. They were guarded by the Northern Alliance. They were in a prison controlled by Northern Alliance guards.
The CIA Men were brave enough to work with the Northern Alliance. The CIA entered the country before the Special Forces. Their duty demanded that they place themselves in danger. And they were willing to, because they love this country. I wish we had more of these "bureaucrats".
