Why are y'all so upset at random words on a screen? Who gives a fuck.

Balls of steel or desperation?
2 months ago the Mujahadeen (whom we now call the Northern Alliance and parts of the Taliban) were very close to being completely finished off. Why? Because they were using horses against tanks. Why did the Russians lose in Afghanistan? Because the Americans GAVE the Mujahadeen rockets, tank killers, guns, bombs, intelligence... you name it. No aid from us and Afghanistan would be a Soviet satellite.
I am supposed to be in awe of some camel jocky who is stupid enough to think that because he has God on his side that he can take on the infidel Americans with his trusty Donkey and a large stick? Thats not balls of steel, thats brainwashing and desperation.
See how willing the Northern Alliance were to accept our aid in the form of bombers and intelligence? I am not impressed by them. If they had nukes they would be using them like there is no tomorrow.
