A bit of propaganda from the bad guys. Interesting to see some footage of the Mujahadeen out in the field. Seems incredible - certainly not packing for any extended fight. I suppose they don't have to, what with their tactics, and it gives them some maneuverability in the mountains that perhaps US forces lack?

I don't mean to be a defeatist, but our political strategy in the region really undermines our great military forces out there. Its shameful, really.

As for our illustrious Afghan allies (not to generalize too much: I have heard stories, especially from Michael Totten, about how great some of the ANA is, but overall this seems more representative):
