Even the Afghan Police has started kicking Taliban's **** now .
20 Taliban dead and only 2 police officers that too when Taliban attacked with 80-100 people .
My confidence in Afghan security forces is really beginning to grow.
This shows that in direct combat the Taliban can't do much harm . They only manage to kill through suicide bombings , hiding IED's and doing silent hit and run type of attacks .
