Pete,
I believe more modern and efficient weapons were used in Afghanistan.
You know, you just can't drop a napalm canister and expect that it will
burn
talibans inside their holes in the moutains.
Hi Helio!
Someone posted (Stephen?) about setting one side of the mountain on fire
with Napalm and bathing the other side in tear gas to bring them out.
The draft from the fires would draw the tear gas into the caves. This
may be correct.
Before the mountain caves were the hang outs, however, the Taliban
fighters were in trenches near the populated areas. In the trenches,
Napalm would have been the weapon of choice, but for some reason it was
not used.
Regards,
Pete

I think napalm would have gotten the Taliban right the hell out of those
trenches a few years ago, but they just didn't use it. If we had used
napalm, many of those who are now opposing our interests in Afghanistan
would have been fried and would not be an issue now.
