The explosives and weapon were put on display which included 39 Improvised Explosive Device (IED), 31 rockets, 2 boxes of PK machine gun ammunition, and 25 rounds of RPG-7 rockets.

So, sounds like we have some conflict of interest here between Russia and Afghanistan. Or they just made a DEAL.
Sorry, conflict of interest between Russia and Iran. How come when I posted I didn’t get the usual preview? hmmm.
It is 8 am. I just woke up in a different universe. I am going back to bed for a decade. Obama has given the world to Russia, China, and Islam. It will be a bloody mess.
