US MARINES ARE KICKING THE CRAP OUT OF THE TALIBAN

What did you think would happen when these wife beaters squared off with the world's greatest fighting force? This ain't no sippin' tea.

Taliban forces in southern Afghanistan are fleeing to the Pakistani border after being routed in recent operations by the United States Marines, the American commander of NATO forces in Afghanistan said on Monday.

Marines of the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit have been clearing Taliban and foreign fighters from the district of Garmser, in southern Helmand Province, an important infiltration and drug trafficking route used by the Taliban to supply insurgents farther north.

“The insurgents, after experiencing these several weeks of pressure below Garmser, are trying to flee to the south, perhaps to go back to the sanctuaries in another country,” said the NATO commander, Gen. Dan K. McNeill.

Governor Mangal said hundreds of foreign fighters had joined the Taliban in their fight against marines in Garmser in recent weeks. But he said they had suffered heavy losses.

And that passage was from the New York Times. Which means the ass kicking is like 10 times greater than they report.
