Vince, I hear you guys copped another beating last night. I hope you are still holding up alright.

I must say, I got a good chuckle out of the M4 poster.

Dimitri, the Taliban is just a new name for the Mujahideen (which actually is a translation of people engaged in 'Jihad'). Granted they have recruited some additional followers along the way, but the ...

Thanks mate. Do you know what the deal is with land titles up there, is there crown land to hunt on or am I going to have to find and get permission from the property owners?

Dimitri, keep in mind that this is very much a mess of the US's making. They provided the cash, weapons and training to allow the Taliban to effectively fight the Soviets. Why then is it the Pakista ...
