So, are we actually fighting the country of Afghanistan? I thought it was just the terrorists, but I'm hearing things that sound like we're fighting the country in general.

Not the country, groups inside the country. It's like a gurilla war with some terrorism mixed in. The country itself fights with us, and half of the world.

Yes, we are also doing humanitarian work as well as fighting. For some odd reason Marines aren't involved in that part..... Rolling Eyes
