Hi Dan,

It's time we take the cavern fighting into the intelligent stage. No USSR mistakes.

Never fight the enemy the way they expect you to fight them.

Never send manned teams into caves when you can gas them, seal them and move onto the next entrance/exit.

Never bomb conventional targets when your Taliban leaders are holed up in the civilian sector, moving from house to house like a pack of wolves.

Never announce your intentions up front.

Bomb the red cross as many times as necessary if they are taken over by militant terrorists.

If they hang peaceful folks - don't hesitate to burn down a poppy field for each instance.

When they expect you to do high altitude bombing runs - come in with a platoon of commandos and level a city block or two.

If they like playing with anthrax - give em plenty to play with. Our boys and girls are innoculated.

And the troops are building up...the media just isn't announcing it or making stories about it...as they see firsthand the need for keeping secrets.

If they like Guerrila tactics - don't give em a stationary target.

Joe Biden can go straight to H@ll if he thinks America is not going to use its high tech advantages - just so as not to 'appear a hight tech bully'

We will not waste lives or groundtroops to help his 'image' problem.

We will use them when a clear objective is attainable. Occupying Afghanistan is not our goal. Taking out the Taliban and combatting terroism is our goal.

This is NOT Vietnam. Our enemies were supplied by US and as long as Russia and China can be bottlenecked - the Taliban will quickly run out of munitions in a protracted effort.

Warfare has come to the 21st century - I am reminded of the Armies which turned down the first tanks and torpedoes - or how prior to WWI the generals were planning on fighting the next war with Cavalry - as it had been fought before.

The new wars are not random shoot-em-ups or even hit & miss blow-em-ups. The new wars are data-based, intelligence driven, series of operations and attainable goals which lead to a desired objective.

Caves are no defense..justice is coming and there is no place it cannot reach.

Best wishes,
