Private channel gets videotape of Taliban activity
2006-10-10
ISLAMABAD: A private television channel on Monday received a videocassette showing Taliban forces fighting the coalition forces in Afghanistan. The videotape that arrived at Geo TV consists of three parts. The first part, titled 'Rehbar', shows Taliban commander Mulla Dadullah Khan and his associates. The video shows the Taliban transporting ration and weapons and Mulla Dadullah baking bread for his comrades in a cave in Kandahar. The video also shows Dadullah leading prayers and the Taliban drinking water from ponds, washing clothes and bathing.

The second part of the videotape, named 'Rastey', shows the Taliban fighting the US and coalition forces. The video shows damaged vehicles of the allied forces, arms and ammunitions and a coalition helicopter retreating after a battle with the Taliban. The video also shows Mulla Dadullah beheading two British soldiers, two Afghan women and 27 Afghan soldiers.

The third part of the video, called the 'Fidayeen', shows Mulla Dadullah meeting would-be suicide bombers inside a cave. He writes them a chit that he calls 'admittance to paradise'.

#4  I just love how the "article" puts the beheading of 31 humans at the end of the 2nd paragraph, as if it's an everyday occurance. Of course, in Waziristan, maybe it is.

#2  The video shows damaged vehicles of the allied forces, arms and ammunitions and a coalition helicopter retreating after a battle with the Taliban.

Of course, the dozens of dead Taliban were not shown nor was it shown that the Taliban retreated after the battle.

A coalition helicopter retreating? Or simply flying away having expended its ordnance and needing to go home to refuel/rearm?

But, of course, I'm just being silly. The Taliwackers are slowly and steadily driving the coalition forces out of Afghanistan as the mighty Lions of Islam that they are.
