US Special Forces are now actively engaged with the Taliban in retaking Kunduz City in Afghanistan.

Early this morning, those Special Forces troops became directly engaged by hostile forces, and an airstrike was called on Taliban positions to neutralize the immediate threat. At least three airstrikes have been carried out in and around the northern Afghan city since Monday, and it is believed that two key insurgent leaders were killed by the strikes.

U.S. military officials expect the estimated 500 Taliban fighters to be pushed out of the city soon, as they say the offensive, and taking of the city, was more about publicity than actually holding ground. The Afghan military’s inability to hold the city raises serious questions about the feasibility of President Obama’s 2016 coalition withdrawal deadline.

Yeah, no kidding.  Another Obama deadline that has encouraged our enemies, and which he'll have to abandon.  Another defeat snatched from the jaws of victory by the progressive icon.


Afghan rabble, uh, I mean army.

  1. Any criticism of President Obama's (failed) foreign policy smacks of racism.
