Comments:Taliban in Pakistan captures convoy bound for NATO troops

Remember that Ukrainian transport ship that pirates took a couple months ago? Both of these events show the lack of adequate protections for supply. Needs improvement. 74.227.163.200 03:33, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

So it was US/NATO owned vehicles but in Pakistan hands before getting hijacked? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.229.21.217 (talk) 07:26, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

This is why Nato needs about 30,000 more troops. Afghanistan is a huge country and controlling the areas outside of the cities has always been the biggest challenge. Talking with the Taliban will get us nowhere, they only understand overwhelming force. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkMontgomery (talk • contribs) 09:08, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

So basically they stole some equipment and food and gave it to local citizens, without anyone dying. Then when they come to get their stuff back that was stolen from them, THEN people start dying. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.59.254.207 (talk) 13:09, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

pergaps its better when they have some weapons to show their intentions and they need not so much make shift explosives.80.57.67.243 13:16, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Modern-day Robin Hoods?
I find it interesting that this particular faction of the Taliban would re-distribute their loot to local residents. I wonder if that were truly their intention, or if they simply wanted to perform an act that would garner positive attention from the public. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.70.249.121 (talk) 19:12, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Winning hearts and minds, then the Pakistan army come blazing in and killing the wrong people. Great way to fight a war for hearts and minds. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.229.21.217 (talk) 21:17, 13 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Truly their intention or not, what's for sure is that they got a lot of attention from the media and from the locals. It was the same after the Israeli-Lebanon war: while politicians were talking, Hamas was already organising the reconstruction. Nothing comes from violence. -Aless.mac (talk) 04:38, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
