A Portrait of the Taliban

So I just finished watching this two minute video of an attempted Taliban ambush. It offered a very interesting portrait of the men NATO is fighting every day. You can see their commander’s compassion for civilians (certainly, not all of them have such character traits) and also their lack of experience (at the very end, hilarious).

In truth, it appeared to be a sort of training mission. Only for the Taliban, it’s not training, it’s combat. A stark reminder that our enemy doesn’t have the opportunity to train like we do. Enjoy.
