If anyone still has a soft sport in their heart for the so-called insurgency in Afghanistan - read this:

quote:
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan - Taliban insurgents hanged a teenager in southern Afghanistan because he had American money in his pocket, stuffing five US$1 bills into his mouth as a warning to other villagers not to use dollars, police said Monday. Elsewhere the Taliban killed eight police.

The 15-year-old boy was hanged from a tree Sunday in Helmand province, the most violent province in the country and the world's No. 1 poppy-growing region.

F-ck off Stock. No one has a soft sport (sic) for the insurgency, we just don't think we should be killing afghanis' because they want freedom.

They never asked us to be there, and have asked us to leave.

Wow, the Taliban are vicious religious extremists and all-around nasty dudes? My eyes have truly been opened.

Stockholm this thread is offensive. Babblers can oppose and protest Canadian and US presence in Afghanistan without "having a soft spot" for the insurgency as you suggest. cut out the trolling.
