#1 The Talban may not be International Terrorists, but they damn sure are local terrorists.

#2 "...that sort of thing is no different than the pressure many governments employ to elicit compliance with laws and regulations."

Let me get this straight. The Taliban's use of "coercion" is on equal footing to enforcment of laws by "many governments". They use "tactics" that are "basically terrorism" but that's just really a "low level war". And the Taliban are in multiple countries and are receiving money from foreign sources but really shouldn't be considered an international organization.
Whatta crock O' shit!
