Wishing them good hunting.
Godspeed to our troops.
“Taliban insurgents stormed Musa Qaleh in Afghanistan’s main opium-producing area in early February, disarming police and taking over the district administrative centre from a tribal council.
In late March they hanged three men in the centre and entrances of the town, accusing them of spying for British forces.
The takeover followed a controversial deal about four months earlier which saw British forces withdraw on the request of tribal elders who said they would keep out the rebels and maintain the peace.”
” Azimi stressed that the operation to retake Musa Qaleh, 130 kilometres northeast of the main southern city of Kandahar, was launched at the request of the elders. “
Hopefully the elders have learned something.
