Combat In Afghanistan




This short video from 60 minutes talks about the War in Afghanistan in 2008. In the video it is explained how the US and its allies are beginning to experience more attacks from enemy forces. The video also explains how it is extremely difficult to fight this war because the US and coalition forces do not know who is on which side. In many ways this is very similiar to the Vietnam War in this instance. The video goes on to say how it is also difficult to fight the war because of the geography in Afghanistan. In some places it is desert and very dry and humid, while in other places it is extremely mountainous and very hard to navigate.
