We make possible clothing for Afghan rebels somehow (8)
I believe the answer is:
enablers
'we make possible' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'clothing for afghan rebels somehow' is the wordplay.
'clothing for' means to remove the middle letters (only the letters which clothe the word).
'somehow' is an anagram indicator.
'afghan' with its middle taken out is 'an'.
'an'+'rebels'='anrebels'
'anrebels' with letters rearranged gives 'ENABLERS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for enablers that I've seen before include "They make possible" , "They facilitate the doing of things" .)
