I sincerely hope no one on this blog is suggesting that the US presence in the Middle East is causing these sick idiots to do something like this to a child. If you really believe this, please feel free to join them in HADES!! There is room.

This is pretty tame for the Taliban. I mean she is still alive after all. They are known for worse when a women is suspected or just accussed of adultery.

They would bury the women to her waste, tie her hands, and have her relitives her own children, and neighbors throw stones at her until she is dead. So this story is nothing new. Anyhow not even I could be ignorant enough to hope for a happy ending on this one.

Mariell, you are just another LSOS right wing nut. Obama never said anything of the kind. Your statement is just typical republican propaganda in hopes it will eco aroound the interenet and some how become true.

Anyone can research the taliban, watch a documentry, or a few agonizingly true movies on netflix to know what scum bags the taliban is.

I am not for any of the wars we’ve gotten into in the middle east. However, once you go to war take the gloves off and kill all of these Taliban, Al-queda or whatever they are called. To do less is to dishonor the American men and women fighting these wars.

Track em’ down, drone em’, cruise missle em’ hit em’ where-ever they are and when ever we can. Screw the love taps, let’s get rid of them in a manner that will stop others from following in their path. If their support mechanisms also suffer, tuff ca-ca.

The Obama Administration tries to portray the Taliban as greatly composed of moderate, reasonable men, opposed to violence, but that is simply not true, as your article sadly points out.

There is a great deal of evidence coming out from the intelligence community in the US and reported in the media is the UK, that the Taliban is as strong as ever and is closely linked to al qaeda and other terrorist groups.

I don’t know if military action in Afghanistan is the answer or whether the US should just get out and tighten security within the US and for US interests abroad, or whether more intensive military action is needed. A significant problem is Pakistan… I don’t know.

Glad I don’t have to make that decision, but the Obama Admin. should tell the truth, not half-truths and lies. Time to be honest about the Taliban and terorism.
