KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Taliban militants hanged a teenager in southern Afghanistan because he had American money in his pocket, stuffing five U.S. $1 bills into his mouth as a warning to other villagers not to use dollars, police said Monday. Taliban militants elsewhere killed eight police.
The 15-year-old boy was hanged from a tree on Sunday in Helmand, the most violent province in the country and the world's No. 1 poppy-growing region.
too bad you didn't realize this post was originally from '07, where W was your boy and W was their friend and right wing extremists were his talking puppets.
That is sad how radicalism keeps on living in this world.
And you believe the story? I wonder if it had anything to do with the poppy industry the article mentioned? You do know that is a violent industry.
"The 15-year-old boy was hanged from a tree on Sunday in Helmand, the most violent province in the country and the world's No. 1 poppy-growing region."
"Dollars are commonly used in Afghanistan alongside the afghani, the local currency, though dollars are more commonly seen in larger cities where international organizations are found."
I suggest we place a $1,000 bounty on any and all Taliban and let their neighbors make some money.
While we are at it, we should make all American flags from a material that either explodes or emits chemicals that kill all those nearby the flag burning.
The Taliban aren't acting any differently today than they did 20-years ago. So what's the surprise? Obama wants us out of there. Romney/Ryan want more troops or more troops on the front lines ... so more of us will die. Let them kill their own, not us.
