The Great Escape - Afgan version (Taliban, solution, Saddam, claim)

[Watchman57]

Steve McQueen and a huge big name cast made a movie about a tunnel escape the biggest in WW 2, well 500 Taliban just re-created it and added it to the record books more than doubling the WW2 escape numbers.

Nearly 500 Taliban flee in daring Afghan jailbreak

Great Post.

Thanks. BTW I loved that movie. I wonder what they name their tunnel? Ah yes, Mohamed. LMAO

[Watchman57]

Tunnels were named Mohammed, Abdullah, Saddam and Osama.........

Also the Commandant was NOT named Klink and the Cheif Guard not named Shultz..........

[Watchman57]

I wonder if President Soetoro will now claim we need to send another 25,000 troops to counter these 500 escaping???

I wonder if the guards were just stupid or paid to look the other way. Given the Afghan culture I'll bet on payed off.

Maybe that's going to be President Skippy's solution to what to do with Gitmo. He'll just forget to lock the door...
