Three things are different this time. First, the Afghan population is
much less gung ho to fight after twnty or so years of war and
occupation. Second, their ample supply of weapons, courtesy of the US
taxpayer, is no longer available. Third, the allied forces do not
control much of the Afghan territory, they are confinded mainly to
Kabul.
