They don't need billions, most of their weapons are derived from the rich economies like russia and the west who play pawns with them, arming each side in turn. IED's are made from the thousands of tons of leftover missiles and bombs.

The Afghan fighters don't have a lot of kit. Most have an old AK47 and some spare clips, no rations, no field hospitals, no state of the art comms system, no air cover, no armour worth talking about. What they do have is years of experience of fighting foreign invaders. They strike and then fade away like shadows in the night.

This all assumes it was a suicide, and not the Taliban operating the bomb by remote control, thus killing their own, nice people.

you dont need billions for guerilla warfare, try reading a history book billyo

And the flip side is to ask what makes a people so desperate that they feel the need to not only sacrifice themselves, but their children too?

And whether there can be any victory, or any change of mind of such people by military means?

Exactly what is in Afghanistan anyway? Seems like a good place for some nuclear testing

Al Qaeda is supposed to be based there, as with most wars most of the population are innocent, they just get caught up in the crossfire.

Its not the first time we have been to war in Afghanistan.

though the afgans were fighting with us, and the bombers were all foreign fighters, also though all the ALLIES were trying to drive them out of afganastan so the people could have there country back.
the afgan people are not at war with us are they , so why call taliban afgans
