"We Don't Need Any More US Troops to Beat The Taliban, What We Need Is For The Italians to Leave Their Bases And Fight"....

Scotsman "Ismail Khan, the self-styled Emir of western Afghanistan, and three-decade veteran of fighting the Taleban and the Russians, was particularly scathing about the Italian forces, in his hometown of Herat."...."Mr Khan said: "The Italians were not very active. They didn't do a lot of operations to go and find the Taleban. Most of the fighting was when they got ambushed.""People respect the Americans because they went outside the city and fought the Taleban face to face."
