1. I don't think it's the same situation...

No helicopters...as the enemy isn't the same kind of force that the Viet Cong were.

3. American can only win AFTER the helicopters come: just like in Vietnam.
Bush the fool, delayed action in Afghanistan to the point that the enemy became like insects. Insects like the Viet Cong or the Pakistan Taliban can't be defeated this way. We can only win after THEY try to re-establish themselves as a nation. Then we've got them.

4. I see we have had 5 really delusional people vote in this poll so far.
Yeah, we'll win in Afghanistan. Just like the Russians. And the Brits. And Alexander the Great. And Genghis Khan. And the aliens from planet Zort. And the Easter Bunny Freedom Militia.

6. Actually no. It's landlocked and they'll control the roads.
Feel free to stay, though.
