I've heard all day the Taliban is saying, "The Americans are too soft. They won't come in on the ground and fight them".

They are begging us to fight on their terms so they can ambush us.......Ain't gonna happen!

They also want to see a BIG target, thus the call to send 100,000 troops "so it'll be a fair fight". Why give them a big target when we can kill them all with 1,000 troops using this style of warfare?

Absolutely. We treasure life. These farts are trapped in their own preconceptions of combat. Not a chance we will risk precious US lives by foolishly meeting their challenge. Just as Patton said, our goal is not to die but to let the other poor bastards die.

They should ask this female jet pilot if is is too soft, right before she drops a bomb on them. LOL
Female fighter pilot flys with English accent
Still she admits to some hairy moments when the "triple A"
-- anti-aircraft artillery -- starts coming up from the ground towards the plane.
"You don't loiter in the target area," she said.
