Afghanistan Insider Attack Issues

I keep reading stories about how American bases are being attacked by Afghanis wearing American uniforms. Well, I have a suggestion that could end these attacks. It sounds like a joke, but it’s not. Here’s my idea:

The American military in Afghanistan should make American uniforms in all different colors, and randomly pick which color uniform to wear each morning on a daily basis. We all know there is pink, lavender, orange, etc., camouflage cloth available, so just make everyone uniforms in every color imaginable and simply pin a swatch on the bulletin board every morning of what color to wear for each day. Then the terrorists will never be wearing the right stuff, and they will be easy to spot as enemies.

Hey, it’s just an idea. And I know it sounds silly, but I’ll bet it would work and save lives, even though all the soldiers might feel silly wearing that stuff. But hey: it’s better than being dead or wounded, right? And can you see the Taliban wearing pink camouflage uniforms? They’d rather be dead than wear that, so they will be discouraged from attacking in the future. And if they’re going to attack us, shouldn’t we make it as humiliating as possible for them to do it?
