[0:04] Taliban have escaped from the fortress

[0:06] which is only about 8 miles west of the

[0:08] city. So uh basically that that you know

[0:12] adds a completely different level of

[0:14] danger. Um and um some of these

[0:16] prisoners um apparently according to

[0:18] Northern Alliance commanders have um

[0:20] grenades and other weaponry surgically

[0:22] implanted into into uh into their bodies

[0:25] under their skin. Um there are also

[1:17] Northern Alliance versus the Taliban.

[1:20] The Taliban's been shattered into a

[1:22] thousand pieces.

[1:24] You just have a lot of guys with guns.

[1:26] You don't know who's on your side and

[1:28] who's against you. And it feels far less

[1:30] secure than it did before. Jim, how do

[1:34] you know the good guys from the bad

[1:35] guys?

[1:37] >> You don't you don't know the good guys

[1:39] from
