Who was Gust talking about??


At the end of the movie Charlie and Gust are talking and Gust says:

"Listen to me. . ..the crazies are rolling into Kandahar like it's a *beep* bathtub drain." Who were the crazies?

I guess he's talking about the Mujahideen.

"After the Soviet withdrawal and the collapse of Najibullah's government in 1992, Kandahar fell to local mujahideen commander, Gul Agha Sherzai."

We are building the biggest weapon for oppression in the history of mankind.
