@gentoobro @Hoss @ProfessionalPetFoodTaster @hj @istvan @lanodan @mangeurdenuage The entire deal with Afghanistan is that it's Kabul and then Appalachia: you break the infrastructure and dudes in the mountains do not notice. Most war is fought like that nowadays: it's considered a faux pas to bomb civilians, but you can bomb the water treatment plant and the power plant and whatnot. That works in Iraq, it doesn't work in Afghanistan.
