TALIBAN militants beheaded an Afghan in Pakistan's lawless tribal region after accusing him of spying for the United States, local police said today The 35-year-old man was kidnapped one week ago and his body found today in Razmak some 65km south of Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan, an official said.

"He was slaughtered overnight. His headless body was put on the roadside," police official Munir Khan said.

A note found on the body of the man, identified as Shafiq Gul, said he was "spying for the US".

"Whoever spies for the US will face the same fate. This is a gift to (US President Barack) Obama," the note said.

This was the tactic used by al Quida in Iraq. Let’s hope it back fires in Afghanistan like it did in Iraq....

This is a gift to (US President Barack) Obama,” the note said

Jesus the Son of God laid down his life for mankind. I think it would only be appropriate if the “O” messiah did the same thing. After all, his followers surely believe he would rise again on the third day.

How stupid must the Taliban be?

Haven't they heard B. Hussein Obamah is sending their Hamas friends hundreds of millions.

A gift to Obama...
I wouldn’t be surprised to hear Obama ask for more such gifts.

Obama needs to talk to them some more.

I'm sure if he wears his extra shiny suit, smiles extra big, and makes a super serious and candid face while talking to them they will understand their ways are wrong.

Besides, Obama is black! Once they realize this “historic” moment they will fall on their knees and understand that they should come on board with the rest of the world and stop cutting off heads.
