re: #129 First As Tragedy, Then As Farce
Thoughts and/or counterpoints?
[Embedded content]
On the issue of helicopters and attack aircraft falling into the hands of the Taliban: How many pilots do they have? How many mechanics do they have? Where do they get parts?
On the issue of radio communications equipment falling into Taliban hands: There is nothing secret about radio, and at least when I worked in ECM and such, you would put your life at risk to destroy those particular pieces of equipment or manuals before allowing them to be captured.
