know your enemy. If your go after Afghanistan, you might win the war but it will not be because they are afraid of fighting or dieing. The Russians learned that more recently.

" I saw an attack by the Gurkhas one day. These brave little men from Nepal attacked the Germans with a ferocity I've never seen and I’d hate to have been on the receiving end of their attack. But even the Gurkhas could not make the Germans budge and their commanding officer called off the attack because the Gurkhas were taking to many casualties, but the Gurkhas ignored this order and continued to attack. Their blood must have been really up. In the end the Gurkha officers stopped sending supplies up to the forward Gurkha troops in a desperate effort to make them pull back. This worked and what was left of the Gurkha Battalion retreated back down the mountain."
