A large group of lingering Taliban soldiers is moving down a road when they hear a voice from behind a sand dune:
“One U.S. Special Forces soldier is better than 10 Taliban!”
The Taliban commander quickly sends 10 of his best soldiers over the dune whereupon a gun battle erupts, then silence.
The voice then calls out, “One U.S. Special Forces soldier is better than 100 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 once more, “One U.S. Special Forces soldier is better than 1,000 Taliban!”
The enraged Taliban Commander musters 1,000 fighters and sends them across the dune. Cannons, rockets and machine guns ring out as a huge battle rages. 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 are two of them!”
