'Huge Afghanistan attack foiled'

[Audio]

US won't be really gone after 2014. I think the drone operations will continue for sure. Surveillance and combat.

regarding the OP: 10 tons huh? That sounds quite a lot lol.

enough to fight off taliban,if they and afghan police will get well equipped.

Nowhere near enough is the right answer.
They are doing well, good on them for that.

They are becoming stronger and gaining expertise, but they aren't there yet.
and success after 2014 still looks a bit iffy.

Yes they can but the thing is their enemy has an endless supply of reinforcements from across the border !

So will Afghan Forces...

"Many units were only set up in the last few years, but insurgent attacks are regular in Afghanistan and the troops – who include a tiny handful of women – have been growing in capabilities and confidence, bound together by a string of shared battles."

But this is also a conspiracy theory propagated by the west

For Indians and Afghans, everything is ISI. Afghanistan is all peaceful, there is no occupation there, its all success but ISI goes there to spoil their party.

I would urge Afghans to come out of their life of illusions. Its amazing how good is NDS that they immediately know it was ISI and ISI is so stupid that it leaves its fingerprints behind. Can you imagine a premier intelligence agency doing that?

Afghans have a right to resist occupation. If Afghans are targeting foreigners, they are doing a noble thing. I would think those who impose wars in foreign lands will agree that if they are occupied by foreign armies, they will do the same.

But its equally important for those to consider their future who are seen as collaborators of the occupation.

Afghan forces will be a major fighting force in the region

That's the official story. The reality is likely to be very different.

Free and independent Afghanistan would a nightmare for Pakistan.

That's why Pakistani do not like anything good happening in the Afghanistan.

Before answering your question I want to make it clear that northern alliance fighters were between 15 to 17 thousands but now ANA is 195 thousand strong even if all of the NA fighters are recruited in ANA still it would not complete 10% of current ANA.

Man I must say with all those tools that Pakistan Army has and our forces don't have, our forces are better in dealing with terrorists!!

Pakistan army is trained to be a conventional war army..... While Afghan army training from Day 1 is unconventional and focused on fighting taliban and is getting hell lot of money from NATO.....I wonder on what grounds you are calling ANA better....

There is a big campaign as well for them in facebook on 5th may for designing and distributing ANSF photos among people, gluing them in stands/walls/cars etc.. I have started designing some photos and will hopefully print them in thousands!
