Guys, I spent 4 years serving in Afghanistan fighting tribal people who live in the mountains and have no core group or cause other than to fight off INVADING forces who have come to profit from their land.
There is NO Al Qaeda that operates as one tactical group. What you have is single families and small groups of tribal people and goat herders who only want to fight off the troops that have invaded their country. I've seen it with my own eyes. Unless you have done the same, you can shut the fuck up right now because not a one of you know what is really going on over there. The media tells you what you are supposed to hear, which is 2% of the real story.
My brothers and private military are there protecting poppy fields (for export) and securing an oil pipeline that is being built. Anyone who gets in the way is called a "terrorist" and is part of the imaginary group called "Al Qaeda" which is simply a name we use to classify them as enemies.
If someone wants to talk true details, hit me offline. I'd be glad to shed some light on a few issues or talk shop.
What I can say is forget everything you read about what is going on over there. Forget the media, forget the CIA fact book website, forget what you think you know. Unless you are there or were there, you don't know.
