Taliban Use American Uniforms In Effective New War Tactic
Nov 04, 2003
By Zafir Jamaal, JUS

In the outskirts of the capital city of Kabul, twelve Coalition
soldiers have been killed due to an effective new war tactic being
employed with the Taliban. The Taliban are wore American and coalition
uniforms in this attack, which allowed them to get deep inside the
coalition close camp. Some Taliban were martyred in the attack however
the number is unknown at this time. After the attack, the Afghans
soldiers expressed concern over this new tactic.

Taliban attacks in the provinces of Khandahar, Ouruzgan and have
resulted in deaths of dozens of Afghan militia and their allies as the
daily attacks take their toll on both sides and continue to escalate.
In Khandahar, a convoy of patrolling Coalition forces has been
attacked killing five soldiers. At least two of the dead were members
of the Afghan National Army however the nationality of the rest is not
known. Meanwhile in Ouruzgan, nine coalition soldiers have been killed
by Taliban Mujahideen using rockets and automatic weapons, with one
believed to be an American. Four Taliban were believed to be martyred
in the attack.

Warlords Continue to Wage Brutal Battles

Infighting is continuing in the Afghanistan, with ten more people
killed in Khandahar in fights between the so-called National Army and
the police. The Army represents the regime of Hamid Karzai, while
police represent the Governor of the province. In the province of
Sar-e-Pol, the barbaric forces of General Dostum and Commander Atta,
both part of the government of Hamid Karzai, have resulted in the
deaths of a mother and her son. It is the practice of the Northern
Alliance troops to pay no attention to the lives of innocent civilians
when they are engaged in the brutal fighting typical amongst warlords.
Scores of civilians have been killed in recent weeks as the warlords
settle their disputes and try to consolidate power in advance of the
elections.

High Command Sends In More Support

Due to the rise of Taliban attacks on American and Afghan soldiers,
Daily Ausaf is reporting that American high command has decided to
send in more troops and helicopters to support the operation being
held in the country. This will drain the resources of the Americans
even more and stretch the already over stretched army even more. The
spokesman for the Americans in Kabul, Rodney Davis said in a press
briefing that Afghanistan will get 400 additional crack Special Forces
troops and a new fleet of helicopters will also be used to guard the
bases from Taliban attacks. The new Special Ops unit will focus on
anti-Taliban operations and will boost the 7500 American soldiers
already stationed there. In the recent attacks by Taliban, 100
American and Afghan soldiers have been killed.

Well, one thing that hints at validity is the rumored huge shipments of
used BDUs to Afghanistan. I used to be big into selling Army surplus.
In the wake of the 9/11 attack, the Feds stopped releasing the stream of
good, old used BDUs (army uniforms) to the U.S. public. Fighting
terrorism was the excuse. (What the hell camo had to do with 9/11 is
beyond me.)

I kept checking for used BDUs. I heard a rumor from a truck driver that
warehouses near Atlanta were crammed against the roof with BDUs with no
where to go. The next rumor was that the government had decided to ship
this swell of uniforms to Afghanistan. (Still "fighting terrorism", I
guess! The Feds apparently fear U.S. citizens more than foreign
extremists.) Now, this report meshes nicely with the theme.

Perhaps, but I believe that under the "rules" of War, any combatant
caught wearing the uniform of the opposition can be summarily
executed, in the field. If so, it might be useful to make a few of
these savages caught wearing the uniform "examples" for the rest.

Time to finish the job in Afghanistan, and de-louse that country of
the sicko Talibans once and for all time.

If that was going to happen, it would have done by now. America has
achieved its objective in Afghanistan. And the objective was not human
rights. The Bush administration had lost interest in that war by early-2002.

Interesting idea. The Americans will probably end up shooting anyone
they see in an American uniform, and save the Taliban the trouble.

It's actually the Taliban who are de-lousing the country of US troops.
The U.S. is currently trying to negotiate with various Taliban
members, as the Taliban is kicking some serious ass.

The U.S. is trying to save face in a war that it is losing.

And after enough acts of terror, especially ones that finally plunge the
world into another Great Depression, the West will just say, "Enough," and
start wiping out the populations of the Muslim world, not with nukes or

The objective was to rid the country, and world, of the ghastly
Taliban, and install a decent government, at least somewhat
representative of the Afghan people. I didn't realize how much ya
missed the Taliban; few other non-Taliban people in the world have.

PM Karzan is a fine fellow, with a lot of work still lying ahead of
him.

Neither has happened. Yes, the Taliban have been removed from power and
few mourn their passing. But they are growing in strength in their core
areas, and religious extremism still pervades Afghan society, rolling
back many gains made by women. The warlords control the areas that are
not in the hands of religious extremists. In either case, human rights
abuses are among the worst in the world.

Karzai's government has little power outside Kabul and only rules Kabul
with the help of peacekeeping troops. The fact that he's an ex-Unocal
employee leads to great suspicion as to whether he is more
representative of Afghan or US interests.
http://www.corpwatch.org/news/PND.jsp?articleid=1149

Peacekeepers in Kabul are being attacked regularly. German and Canadian
troops have been killed there in recent times.

I don't miss them. The bombs did. The US had little interest in
"freeing" or rebuilding Afghanistan. The past two years speak for
themselves.

He may be a nice guy, but does not have the mandate to lead Afghanistan.
US interest there is reduced to ensuring pipeline security.

Sigh, I know. Temporary rise in blood pressure. On the other hand, what
do you think might happen to the US in response to Bush playing with one
of his new "mini nukes"?

The Muslim woman's in veil focus is her home, the "nest" where her

her children,providing refuge and support to her husband.


In contrast, the bikinied Western Christians/Jew sluts practically

Omigod. If Bin Laden or any member of Al Qaeda reads this, they're
going to be tracking ya down like a hunter. They are not very
tolerant folks, ya know. Especially when it comes to women.

And some, like Bin Laden, take it "seriously" enough to put 19 young
miscreants and mental defectives on planes to do his dirty deeds (but
curiously, Bin Laden didn't take it THAT seriously enough to climb
aboard one of the planes himself).

The difference of course is that Bush is a coward while oll Binny is a brave
hero of private, unfettered capitalism. Bush has an IQ of 88 while Binny
is a master planner.

Consider the magnifying effect. a couple of million in funding by Binny has
caused the Bush puppet to spend nearly one trillion.

Lets divide shall we?

1,000,000,000,000
---------------------
2,000,000

= 500,000

So BinLaden's damage to AmeriKKKa has been magnified by a factor of a half
Million by the Illiterate Bush Puppet.

Snicker.

I can tell you that many British relatives of military dead think this
way; as Bush will hear for himself when he visits London later this week.

I'd guess that many relatives of dead American servicemen will also feel
the same way, especially as the Bush regime has censored media coverage
of military funerals for political reasons.

The people who the troops are fighting for seem to have the lowest
possible opinion of their troops' lives - exactly as Vietnam veterans
also found.

Censored funeral? Sorry, I've seen many on TV. Get your facts straight, you

smart enought to know how corrupt capitalism is and if I care for my
soul I'd better get out.

If I may quote your god Joshua Bin Joseph (AKA Jesus Christ) "It is
easier for a camel to pass through they eye of a needle than for a
rich man to go to heaven" OR "To get to heaven sell all your own,
give it to the poor and follow me".

Good point - no, there are a wide variety of anti-war sentiments (as
well as those who still believe in the war). They vary from "Bush is
naive" to "Bush is a crook". The illegal privitisation - essentially
theft - of all Iraqi state industry makes me believe the latter.

PS - in the interests of balance I should point out that a UK poll today
shows a majority in favour of Bush's visit: 43% welcome his arrival, 36%
say he shouldn't be coming. However, given the strength of the past
US/British relationship, Bush is relatively unpopular compared to past
presidents.

In 1990, Bush Sr. allowed military funerals to be censored. According to
the UK Guardian: "For the next 12 years the ban was largely ignored,
even after it was extended to all military bases during the last days of
the Clinton administration. But this March, shortly before the war
began, the Pentagon handed down a directive that made it perfectly clear
it expected the policy to be heeded."

Liar.

You lost your soul when your wife died
because you wouldn't spend your own money
for her health care. Shame on you.

Come on, liar.
You were never rich, were you?
If you were, why didn't you spend your own money
to take care of your wife in her time of need?

> "To get to heaven sell all your own,

So Jesus resides in Australia?

Cameras are not allowed to show the caskets of slain service men at
military bases, not military funerals. Can't you fucking read?

All you care about is the political use this might have for you.......

I've seen them covered on the news, with video and everything, so yes.
what I haven't seen is pictures of caskets coming off airplanes at
Dover AF Base, because that's what's banned. Got it?

So what do you think about government censorship in the land of the free?
