| Taliban Claim ISAF Troops Use Chemical Arms |
| 2010-12-07 |
| [Tolo News] The Taliban in a statement has claimed that foreign troops use chemical weapons in operations in Afghanistan. Taliban said in the statement that chemical weapons used by foreign troops have caused psychological illnesses among people and it has also caused birth deformities. But the front man for Isaf forces, General Josef Blotz dismissed the allegation. "We have never used these weapons and we will never use these weapons and it's completely out of question," Blotz said. The claims by the Taliban come after recent reports said that the US troops in Afghanistan have been provided a new weapon called the XM-25. The weapon has a laser guidance system and can be used to target bully boyz behind walls or in the ditches without needing to call for air support. Meanwhile, ...back at the ranch... a top Nato official highlighted that Afghan cops will develop the potential to gain control of security by 2014. "You can have every confidence that they will be in a position to take a leadership role to address the kind of violence that we hope, we will be seeing in Afghanistan at that time," Christopher Chambers, a Nato civilians spokesperson said. "Isaf forces will remain here whether it be in a training role or in a supporting role to be able to support Afghan national security forces." The Afghan government along with its US and Nato partners agreed in the recent Lisbon Summit that the security transition process to Afghan leadership should be ended by the end of 2014. |
