Looks like the Canadian troops in Afghanistan are having a little trouble with the marijuana forests. Taliban troops have been using the area for cover, and the Canadians have been having trouble penetrating the thick growths. So they decided to incinerate the plants. :D

"A section of soldiers that was downwind from that had some ill effects and decided that was probably not the right course of action."

They should have either:

- waited until the wind changed direction
- blow the smoke the other way themselves

It would make the Taliban troops a lot easier to defeat.

Follow the blowing smoke up with the Canucks marching into the area yelling in Afghan, "I've got cookies! Who wants cookies? Come get your cookies! But first leave your gun. You can't eat cookies if you're carrying a gun!"

Yes. That is the best military tactic I've ever heard of. Really. If that actually happened and worked, that would hella make my day. It would be the best thing since... well... cookies.
