You and the fraud are missing the point. The precursor for the attacks
was born from an unstable environment after the Soviet-Afghan war. The
potential is there for history to repeat itself.

These people should not be underestimated. The US did once before and we
all know what the result of that was.

wherever US soldiers are likely to be seen on the streets. wherever US

Completely wrong, the attack was planned by the Saudis who weren't based
in Afghanistan, Bin Lardins part was to give the plan credence and
finance. Bin Lardins rational for hating Americans was the presence of
US troop in Saudi Arabia which he considered blasphemy.

It's not too hard to get hold of a US uniform, neither is it too hard to
get hold of what appears to be a US Army firearm.

Even an ill fitting one... I saw a vid where 5-6 Telitubbies were
moving up a street dressed in their US camo fatigues and combat helmets,
complete with helmet mounted cameras ... they looked like absolute
amatures.. waving their rifles around carelessly, laughing as they
looked like try-hards from school camp. The fact that they were wearing
ill fitting uniforms, and "bandy-legged" gave them away instantly.

Heh. Most of the population of the USA owns whats appears to be a USA
Army firearm.... apparently.

And the missing teeth, the ill fitting uniform, the gait, the eyebrows,
the lack of security passes and knowledge of units....

Pretty easy to "miss a point" that someone invents to try to cover their
own ignorance, wouldn't you say?

I really don't know why this idiot bothers. He has no idea what he's
talking about.

Not in the slightest. In fact I'd be surprised if you couldn't buy both
on Ebay in the US.

I would imagine that most if not all of the US military dress now in the
possession of the Taliban would be used by them locally not only to
afford them a little more protection from the elements over the Kaftans
and sandals they normally wear, but to allow them to "play soldier" and
not look like the useless donkey riding single brain cell fucktards they
usually look like.

It's nothing more than fancy dress for the people who still live in
prehistoric times, and if Felix thinks having a yank uniform will allow
some Afghan warrior to casually stroll past the sentries at a military
base where they can get right into the middle of it all and cause
massive destruction he's away with the fairies.

You clearly have no understanding how they operated or of their history
and origins and how such groups can be born out of such conflicts.

Are you choosing to be ignorant, completely thick or are you just being
an argumentative, or all of the above?

Plenty of US trained Afghanis that will have plenty to say and do now
that the Taliban have taken control, especially when given an AK47
ultimatum.
