American Troops Decimate Scores of Attackers in Afghanistan - So Is It Vietnam Yet?

Just wondering Spiegel and Stern - is it Vietnam yet? More evidence of demoralized American soldiers?

"No fewer than 70 Taliban died outside COP Margah on Nov. 8. At least, that’s the estimate the soldiers came up with after picking up body parts the following day — standard procedure following a major attack."

Guessing we won't see very much about this in the German media...since it doesn't fit the long-standing narrative of defeat and humiliation for the United States.

Hi guys, long time no talk to!

Actually, it IS like Vietnam in one respect. The media (current article excepted) are almost universally rooting for the U.S. to lose - and I'm referring to the U.S. media.
