On Wednesday, five relief workers, including three foreigners, working for Medecins Sans Frontieres were killed. A purported Taliban spokesman claimed responsibility.

The Taliban is truly a wicked, evil organization, but it is admired by many Moslems. For example, it is zealously admired and praised by the staff of Jihad Unspun.

Medecins Sans Frontieres leaves Afghanistan

The relief organization Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors without Borders) will close down its programme in Afghanistan for the time being, after a Norwegian doctor and four other MSF workers were killed in an ambush in the Badghis province on Wednesday.

The Norwegian doctor, Egil Kristian Tynaes (62), was on a four-month leave from his position as chief surgeon at a Bergen hospital, and he was killed on the last day of work in Afghanistan. It was his second assignment in Afghanistan for MSF.

Tynaes was married with five children.

Afghanistan's Prime Minister, Hamid Karzai, has condemned the ambush and the killings, and so has the United Nations.
