Stingers

I asked a friend who I thought might know something which led by coincidence to an article published late May of this year

My question was about stinger missiles and there lack of use in Iraq and the possibility of coming out of the closet in Afghanistan.

Turns out- Steve Coll wrote in his book “Ghost Wars,” the C.I.A. spent quite a bit of money buying back as many leftover Stingers as possible from Afghan warlords.

If this is the case then it was a good move I guess but if somebody wanted to make our lives even more miserable than what it is there they could do what we did to the Russky's.

The article is a decent read and I see where three of our were killed in Afghanistan today.

Thanks,Jim!!
