I write for general read of course,understanding you stay on top of this stuff. As you indicated in your response, the US forces have over four plus years built up required bases. So at this point with so many well trained units to work with plus the ANA uptrained to work with our guys and some NATO forces, we can sustain long campaigns during the warmer months. I can only imagine the logistic involved. G2 and G4 have a tough job to best direct and equipe G3 in their daily raids.
And surely our air recon is far more efficient then even two years back. Having nothing to shoot down our high flying aircraft the enemy is on screen and target designated when they pop their rag heads above ground.
Perhaps in a couple of years the Afghans will be in the position to control their country by themselves. Meanwhile we continue to pick off high value targets as good HUMIT comes in.

sheeple, so easily duped by the piper's tune

well, propaganda works...at time more than others, I suppose. The left is out, and, having nothing genuine to bring to the marketplace of ideas, are forced to plagiurize from the playbook of history. Recall the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings.
