I thought after 11 years Afghanistan would be secured. I guess the most technological advanced army in the world cannot defeat some guys in their pajamas.

R.I.P
Just want to correct you New Zealand is not part of NATO.
NATO means North Atlantic Treaty Organization. New Zealand is not any where near the north Atlantic ocean.
