This is one of the shittiest articles I've had the displeasure of reading. Philwelch 03:48, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

How so? Just saying it's shitty doesn't do anything. Wheres the problem, why is it a problem, how can it be fixed? Is it a NPOV problem, accuracy problem, formatting problem? Nobody cares what you think about the article unless you're going to offer a way to fix it. Sorry. Ghostalker 19:55, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Are members of the British SBS actually called commandos? I don't think so. 145.253.108.22 10:51, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes SBS members are usually drawn from the Royal Marines, who are properly called Royal Marine Commandos. So yes, SBS are "commandos".Voodoocol 00:22, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

The main objetive of this "battle" was to capture Bin Laden. I removed the ridiculous "coalition victory"

• "Most of the enemy fighters made good their escape" isn't this a violation of NPOV policy? Filanca (talk) 17:20, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

No, I don't think that phrase conveys a POV. --AlexCatlin (talk) 00:33, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bin Laden last heard when?

"The last time Osama bin Laden was overheard on the VHF radio was on December 14th." Can we get a year for this? 2001 and 2003 are mentioned in the paragraph so it isn't clear from the context and I can't find a citation anywhere.--AlexCatlin (talk) 00:33, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
