And highly successful.

I'm mildly surprised it made the news. Afghanistan is often, quite correctly, called the Forgotten War.

Between this and the bombing at an Iraqi soccer game, the news out of the Middle East today is making me want to scream.

Not only did they free so many previous Taliban fighters, I'll be very surprised if a majority of the remainder - voluntarily or otherwise - don't join up as well.
