For the first time since the conflict began in 2001, I.E.D.'s have become the leading killer of coalition troops in Afghanistan. As a result, there are now more than 15 special counter-I.E.D. teams.

  • @jake24550 no its made from anything, like artillery left behind from past wars or from the common fertilizer in afghanistan.

  • i was in that team! loved every moment of those days! everyone still keeps in touch... family!

  • @highlanddan they die for our companies under the false idea that its for freedom. really they are fighting for the power of the oil companies

  • Ha, my company built that fire base. (Camp Altimor)

  • @highlanddan I say it is disrespectful to say they are fighting for my freedom.(in these conflicts only) They fight for their battle buddies, and to finish their mission. These wars are not keeping me safe, having so many troops deployed puts us all at risk of a real invading force. I have nothing against the wars. I am enlisting as an infantryman in the United States Army, so please do not bring my patriotism into question. It is just my opinion.

  • Those gunners are taking the "ass-card"? I mean if a IED exploades, they are really not at a good position.

  • hey is an ied made out of primarliy gun powder?

  • @highlanddan Yeah, like having fun with Lindy England. But this was only the beginning in 2003 we have developed much harder stuff since then. We have ways to make them talk. Horaay

  • @highlanddan

    yeh they die in Afghanistan so you can be free in America...does that make any sense to you -_-
