            Knowledgeable people say that the main flights there are made by our "old men", on "old women" Mi-8, less often 24-ki. Americans in the mountains (Afghanistan), as it turned out, are burdocks at all, up to half of the crews, on Mi-shki mercenaries from the former USSR or the Afghans themselves. And they take care of their turntables, since the most basic and necessary things are done by representatives of the winged park produced in Russia or the USSR. And all the fashionable amerovskoe rotorcraft, almost never fly, or fly, but close and safer. Ali is just chasing a caravan. And when he begins to fly far and on "business", then immediately 2 - 3 per week land. And this is not a hat, but the realities of life ...

        This is what they are doing ... And they went there for this - poppy, gas and all that ... In general, the mattress covers are cowardly there! They are afraid of everything, they are scared of everything, they behave inadequately, even though they are like a professional army ... Here is one of the quotes from a person who was there a couple of years ago, 24 and 8-ki restored: "Afghans, those who are older, they say Soviet, but more called Russians, were "disgraceful", they were not very afraid of us, even though they were 20 years old, and the "amerikos" seemed to be all big and healthy, there are so many weapons and all that, but cowards. , and they did not follow him ... The Russians would have put all the villages on their ears in the 20.00s, they would have burned a couple on the way, and this rescue operation only started in the morning, and then they were looking in the other direction, he was lucky, he came ... "

      Everyone is at war. What do they eat? Someone in the country must work, produce something, grow something. And the Afghans have been only fighting for 30 years. We used to supply them, but now who? .. drug trafficking?

      Here's the thought that crept in:
      1. The source of funding for the troops of Afghanistan (IA) and ISIS is one. and this is the USA.
      2. Taliban fight against VA and ISIS. But are VA and ISIS fighting among themselves?

      Conclusion: the government of Afghanistan is ISIS. Well, or vice versa. laughing

    Butt to the PC homemade in the photo. Craftsmen attached instead of broken? But with such a butt it’s inconvenient to shoot, the design features of the PC are affected.

    This morning, some XNUMX Taliban fighters attacked Ghazni from several directions. They managed to get closer to a distance of five kilometers from the city, a fierce battle began.

    Described orientally by color. Only the question arises - are they that they entered a fierce battle at a distance of 5 km from each other or does the defense line run 5 km from the city? And rightly above they wrote about where the Americans are looking at their friends, that 2000 militants overlooked?

      Most likely they found it, otherwise the fight would have begun in the city itself. And not 5 km from it.

    ...... This is what ...... when I was in Afghanistan, in Helmand province and PPSh went all the way, and also with self-made butts ... But what Kunduz managed to win back, and Now, Ghazni is probably, although still a small, but nevertheless clear evidence that Afghanistan has forces capable of resisting terrorists.

      While there. But do not forget that as a result of pressure on the Islamic State in Syria, this evil will begin to spread in different directions. In Afghanistan - one of the first. It’s going to have to the RF and there it seems to restore order.

    And this is not going to read in Texas. It would be calmer all over the world. And the Americans have demonstrated their democracy in their land.
