| Taliban Stragegically Run Away from Barmal District |
| 2004-04-19 |
| From Jihad Unspun In a strategic move, the Taliban have left the district of Barmal because it was feared that now that it is widely known that the district is under their control, the US military would send in bombers and indiscriminately bomb villages and kill innocent civilians as they have in other areas in the past. The decision to leave the district was handed down by the Taliban high command however they continue to control up to 5 districts in the southern areas of Afghanistan. |
