- A Dutch reporter embedded with American troops from 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team (ABCT).
Documentary: Hunting for Taliban
In this award-winning documentary we follow reporter Tom Kleijn and Joris Hentenaar, who were embedded for 2 1/2 weeks with an American unit searching for Taliban fighters in the vast mountain area between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
They traveled with an American military transport from Kabul to the large American base in Kandahar and subsequently to an advance post in the hills. From there the two joined a unit that was eventually dropped in the mountains, in the same area Dutch commandos are active.
The journalists spent a total of five days and four nights with the soldiers hunting for the Taliban. The hunt took place on foot, from village to village, door to door. They witnessed a brief exchange of fire that led to the elimination of a possible Taliban fighter who had taken cover in a cave a large distance away. They also saw two men being captured, who were blindfolded and transported back to the base by helicopter.
The documentary is the account of the long, difficult hunt for invisible Taliban fighters. The viewer sees mostly powerlessness. The powerlessness of a superpower that can occupy a country but can't win the war. The powerlessness of a soldier who fights an invisible enemy. The powerlessness of the ordinary Afghan, who runs the risk of being taken in by American commandos one day and the next day must fear execution at the hands of the Taliban. The soldiers of the unit tell the journalists among other things about the usefulness of their work, about how it feels to kill people and about the way they view their enemies.

Respect.! for all the soldiers of the U.S Army..!
Yes. Fire, correct, fire, etc.
They REALLY need to bring back these uniforms...I mean, I'm no expert, but if your going make a uniform to blend into a desert...you should probably have some colors you actually find in the desert...colors like tan, and khaki....not light green (which doesn't even blend into forest, or grass)
are they wearing ACU or DBDUs?
dcu
YEEEAAHHHH, awesome Soldiers.
The timeline in Afghanistan is stoped. The modern civilisation is out. Today there is 14th century,so that 50 years will pass very quickly.
@i2smartty they are all our brothers

@marijke244 and the U.S. Marine Corp, and the U.S Airforce, and the U.S. Navy,
I respect the soldiers on the ground however I do not respect the choices made by the guys at the top aka the power brokers in washington..
Poor Afghan prisoner. Probably the only helicopter ride he will ever get and he can't see or hear the experience!
You should pay more attention. If it's not Taliban he'll be back with his family soon. s

We are not and have said so numerous times

04:50 so fucking hot!
My best wishes from Russia - vigorously combat with the production of raw opium and drug trafficking,though the Taliban can fight indefinitely, so the troops should not to leave Afghanistan in the next 50 years.
