"KABUL — Six US fighter jets were destroyed and two significantly damaged when insurgents stormed a heavily fortified Afghan base where Britain's Prince Harry is deployed on Friday, a NATO spokesman said.

Three coalition refueling stations were also destroyed and six aircraft hangars damaged in the assault that caused unprecedented damage at Camp Bastion in southern Helmand province, one of the toughest battlegrounds of the war, the spokesman said. — AFP"

Lots of local afhgans on that base, both military and civilian employees. It's not surprising that they knew the weakest part of the entire 28-mile perimeter, which was the side the aircraft hangars were on.

19 Taliban made it to the Marine Ramp after a suicide bomber (in a truck, per some reports) blew a 5ft. wide hole in the 30ft. high outer wall. 18 died there. They never got close to any of the housing areas, and were in fact a couple of MILES away.

Initial reports state that the Taliban had been monitoring the eastern side of Camp Bastion for at least two weeks and had been posing as farmers working in a nearby maize plantation.

The attack only ever had one aim. It was a suicide mission designed to demonstrate that the Taliban can attack any Nato installation, no matter how secure.

So wait, 18 of the 19 Taliban died at the wall, leaving one supersoldier who destroyed the 6 fighter jets?? It's still not making sense to me.

According to this account there were 15 Taliban in 3 teams who got inside following the suicide bomber. Then it says 18 Taliban were killed and a 19th was wounded and captured.

It's still fucking amazing to me they could destroy 6 fighter jets on that huge, heavily fortified installation. Gotta give credit to the Afghanis for such a bold and fierce suicide attack. Wow.

And did the 19 Arabs (coincidence?) use boxcutters to cut the wires on the perimeter fence?scream

Getting awfully clever aren't they? Remember when they snookered all those CIA types into a meeting and then blew it all up?

#1 It's proabaly being guarded by Dick Cheney's Haliburton hacks.

#2 Dick Cheney now gets to sell them more shit to replace the shit he... excuse me... the taliban destroyed.

#3 The place is probably staffed by 10,000 local employees hired by Hailburton to do everything from laundry to running the radar posts. They probably walked right through the fucking main gate with their phony security passes that the drunken Haliburton guards never checked.

Its Vietnam all over again...you cant kill flys with a sledge hammer!!!...you always miss the fly and end up doing a bunch of expensive damage....Afganistan...Destroyer of Empires...un winable. The VC won because they had the will and right on there side...SKS's, AK47's, RPG's, rice balls and bicycles beat B-52's, helocopters, and agent orange!
