Taleban execute woman

[Gromit]

The Taleban have executed a woman for adultery.

Yet we are told, if we are to leave Afghanistan we will have to negotiate with the Taleban.

Will we be betrayed the Afghani people who we said we going to liberate from Taleban?

I agree with your sentiments Gromit but what is the alternative ?

On our own doorstep in N/IRELAND there are now several thousand muderers and extremists free ,walking the streets and free to come here. Some of them even in positions of power.

It is a situation which has happened throughout history .
I once had Nazis and SS Colonels working for me , none of whom expressed any regrets for what had happened in the past.

alas, yes. We went in to remove them and we failed. The winners make the laws, and these are particularly unpleasant winners.

Now if you had read your Daily Mail link Gromit, you would have noticed it was those bad, bad, bad, Taliban militants who put this poor woman to death.

Not your ordinary, peace loving, and friendly Taliban.

Taliban is interchangable with standard Muslims. You cannot remove all the bad ones from a barrell of bad ones the whole lot are rotten. It's just that some can be tempted to appear more reasonable. Innevitably the allies will leave and the extremists will impose their disgusting religion on what's left. Nothing we can do. The west have tried, injecting huge resources, training etc but Muslims are essentially terrorists who do not want peace they want to slay the infidel and create their own heaven on Earth as prescribed by Allah.

I had read the link, that was the point of the question.

The Taleban are killing more muslims in Afghanistan than the combined efforts of the British and US armies.

In light of your bizarre statement above, maybe you should be giving your full support to the Taleban?

[R1Geezer]

The allies are primarily trying to introduce a stable infrastructure. They are not keeping some sort macabre score sheet of deaths. Muslims accept death of their own as collateral, reference the uttrances after 911. Essentially they are trying to prevent what they fear most, ie democracy, stability a safe society ready to progress in health and education and general public services, ie exactly what they don't want. Any deaths of their own are seen as acceptable to acheive an extremist society. If moderate muslims are not the Taliban then dipose the Taliban yourselves, round them up. Oh of course they don't have a badge or uniform do they?

[rov1200]

We are and should be fighting in Afghanistan so that terrorists cannot set up training camps to attack Britain. To bring in any other reason for being there is something that we cannot handle or eliminate.

We are no longer nation builders.

[eyethenkyew]

The problem is that there is no military solution for the likes of Afghanistan, but we are of course hock deep in it and have no way of an honourable exit - perhaps Mr Blair could find the solution - it was him, after all, who sanctioned our involvement there and of course in Iraq as well?

[modeller]

Blair would only get involved if Kazei had a £5million yacht that he and his family could spend a few weeks, plus of course a few £million in consultancy fees.
