| Afghan, NATO forces kill over ten Taliban militants |
| 2008-04-08 |
| Afghan and NATO -led forces killed more than ten Taliban militants in a joint operation in the province of Kandahar in south Afghanistan, an Afghan Defense Ministry spokesman said on April 6. "During the operation, more than ten Taliban militants were killed and a large amount of weapons and ammunition was seized. The operation is continuing," the spokesman said. The Taliban carried out more than 140 suicide missions in Afghanistan last year. More than 6,000 people were killed in violence in the country in 2007, nearly 2,000 of them civilians, according to official sources. Taliban militants are especially active in the southern and eastern parts of Afghanistan, which border on Pakistan. |

| #11 I dunno about that, what we see on the Beaches around here there seems to be some clothes on our babes, but they're very hard to find. |

| #10 I'd like to see those numbers repeated, but only if the number of deaders is increased by at LEAST a power of ten. Redneck Jim - one of the reasons I give for living where it gets cold is that you can always put more clothes on to be warm, but after you reach a certain point in taking them off to be cool, they'll arrest ya. |

| #6 Is that "kill over" or "overkill"? Reports by three privates: "Them fellas had a bad case of the deads." "Wasn't enough left to make a decent shiat sammich." "Bits and pieces evyywhere. Hardly even stunk much." |
