Ed, "I can't believe that in a country that is purportedly as well armed as Afghanistan someone didn't drop one or more of those soldiers with a well placed shot from the top of a building or a hill. Ed" You've been watching too many movies. All the "someones" you're conjuring up were in the "barracks" at the time, awaiting their turn. Also, people who are being tortured don't grimace and refuse to say a word, and secretly find a way to overpower their capturers, escape and blow up the arms depot before getting picked up at the rendezvous point. They scream out bloody murder, tell everything they know, and die horrible deaths. Sly and Arnold won't be there to rescue anyone, it'll be 23 year old first lieutenants and their squads. I hope they carry a lot of high tech night vision gear with them. Go see "Traffic" again. Kb
