ex-Special Forces guy was on FoxNews and said "We own the night" due to our IR technology.

The media was so excited about the possibility of us losing a ground war in Afghanistan. No one seems to have expected a night-time, anti-guerilla, guerilla campaign, although it should have been obvious.

Based on what I've seen and read, landmines are probably the biggest threat our guys face.

Remember the vaunted Republican Guard during the Gulf War? The Talies are probably the same...this scare stuff by the media is just another flavor of "stop the war" BS.
