10th June 2010
Boy hanged in Helmand province after being put on trial by militants More than 40 killed and 77 injured after bomb rips through wedding Cameron pledges extra £67m for British troops on first visit to country Taliban militants have executed a seven-year-old boy they accused of being a spy, it emerged today.
The child was abducted from his home and taken to a neighbouring village where he was put on trial. His captors found him guilty of working for the government. The child was then hanged in public in the village of Heratiyan, in the southern Sangin district of Helmand province.
Afghanistan's president Hamid Karzai condemned the act as a 'crime against humanity' if proved and said officials were investigating. Horror: Two of the young victims lie in hospital after a suicide bombing at an Afghanistan wedding left 40 dead
'I don't think there's a crime bigger than that that even the most inhuman forces on earth can commit,' he said. 'A seven-year-old boy cannot be a spy. A seven-year-old boy cannot be anything but a seven-year-old boy, and therefore hanging or shooting to kill a seven-year-old boy... is a crime against humanity.'
The execution came as 40 people - mainly children and teenagers - were killed when a suicide bomber targeted a wedding. Another 77 were injured after the blast ripped through the party in Kandahar. The bombing happened at around 9pm yesterday in a housing compound where men had gathered during the festivities. Witnesses said the family that was attacked included a number of Afghan police officers.
The groom's brother and two of his cousins were in the police force, according to another cousin, Mohammad Alkozay.

SAVAGES
The Taliban is just as brutal as Al Qaeda and it would be for the betterment of mankind as a whole if both were eradicated completely from the face of the Earth.
“SAVAGES”
shushhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....quiet...............these are the people Obama is reaching out to.........They are moderates.....good guys....
Haven’t you been watching the tele-prompter?????
were afghans outraged?
Are tooth brushes allowed in this culture...???
How are you fixed for blades?
Take it off, take it all off...
You know, it may be time for another, ‘Bow and Apology’ tour.
Oy, I may plotz.
Who could do that? It just boggles the mind. I couldn’t do that to a 7yr old cat, let alone a child.
I read somewhere that a Jewish prisoner in one of Hitler’s camps was praying and thanking G-d for blessing him. A fellow inmate asked him why he was thankful and he replied: “because I’m not like them. “(referring to the Nazis) Badly paraphrased.
I’m thankful I’m not like them either (the Taliban).
Why don’t we do more to understand these people? Why do they hate us? /s
I thank God I’m not like them...muslims and liberals.
A few nukes would do it.
Zero’s kindred. It is hard to comprehend what has happened to our culture in such a short time.
Amen
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

How can anyone in the U.S. think that we can reason with “people” like that?
The Fuhrer, Zero’s Gestapo Czars and the rest of his Regime, Nancy Pelosi and Dingy Reid and their cohorts in Congress think these insane Muslim terrorists will make nice if we suck up to them like weak Liberal morons do. Meanwhile, they’ve compromised our security and made us a laughingstock throughout the world. Had enough yet? Vote them out on November 2nd and neuter the rest by giving the USA a GOP majority in both houses.
What about AI and the UN?
Where's the censure for that?
Or is it only Israel that gets called on the carpet? (As if anyone has to ask)
