Talibs claim 70-100 Americans killed |
2001-11-02 |
The White House denied a claim by the Taliban that 70 to 100 Americans had been killed in the U.S. war on Afghanistan. ``Once again, the Taliban is just lying,'' said White House spokesman Ari Fleischer. The Taliban consul in Karachi, Pakistan, Moulvi Rahamatullah Kakazada, made the claim to Qatar's al-Jazeera television. ``That report is completely false,'' Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman added. He said only three U.S. military deaths had occurred to date, all accidental, all outside of Afghanistan and all already reported. (Reauters) Their lips were moving; they musta been lying. |
