You mentioned several methods used by the insurgents--IEDs and executions--that indicate a tone of desperation on their part. You did mention propaganda, and that soldiers returning from Afghanistan have been expressing their frustrations over the misinformation that insurgents successfully infiltrate western and North American media with. The insurgents want ISAF forces out so they can once again take over the government and enslave the Afghans into servitude and the drug trade.
Would you please elaborate on the ways and the kinds of things the insurgents do and use in North American communications to sway public opinion away from North Americans fighting the war on terror in Afghanistan?
