A large group of Taliban soldiers are moving
down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a sand dune. "One U S Special
Forces soldier is better than ten Taliban."
The Taliban commander quickly sends 10 of his best soldiers over the dune where upon a gun
battle breaks and continues for a few minutes, then silence.
The voice then calls out "One U S Special Forces soldier is better than one hundred
Taliban."
Furious, the Taliban commander sends his next best 100 troops over the dune and instantly
a huge gunfight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again silence.
The American voice calls out again "One U S Special Forces soldier is better than one
thousand Taliban."
The enraged Taliban Commander musters one thousand fighters and sends them across the
dune. Cannons, rockets and machine-guns ring out as a huge battle is fought. Then silence.
Eventually one wounded Taliban fighter crawls back over the dune and with his dying words
tells his commander, "Don't send any more men, it's a trap. There's actually two of
them."
