FYI, Northern Alliance is dead, they got Massoud on Sunday. They posed as TV crew interviewing him and they blew themselves up taking Massoud with them. Northern Alliance without Massoud is like the local Boy Scouts.

A devastating military attack will likely not harm them. I am assuming you mean a bombing attack, they will likely pass their time in bunkers in the mountains. It will surely be devastating but it will hit the already bombed out infrastructure there after years of civil war. I think they are hoping for such action because they believe it will unleash the holy war they always wanted to fight, who knows, they are quite wackos! Ground invasion will take a very long time to prepare and it may become another Vietnam since they 'll be doing what they are good at, guerilla attacks from the mountains...So, difficult call.

Huh? Let me get this right. The northern alliance leader is killed and they become local boy scouts.

However the taliban and bin Laden are a force that can not be defeated.

LMAO. you are living in your own dream world.
If the U.S. sets out to get bin laden they will get him.

So using your logic bin ladens group will be local boy scouts after that happens?
