The Taliban beheaded 17 people, including two women, for attending a mixed-gender party where there was music and dancing, Afghan officials reported today.
The decapitated bodies were abandoned at a roadside in southern Afghanistan, according to Mullah Sharafuddin, the governor of Kajaki district in Helmand province.
All 17 bodies, including those of two women, were decapitated, but it was not clear if they had been shot first.

DBA OBAMA wants to negotiate with them.CLOCK TICKING ON ADMIN TO DESIGNATE HAQQANIS TERRORISTS A recent article published by the Heritage Foundation calls on the Obama administration to officially designate the Haqqani network, the deadliest militant group in Af-Pak and a close ally of the Taliban, as a terrorist organization. The Congress recently passed a bill requiring the administration to either designate the group a terrorist organization within 30 days, or provide a detailed explanation if it chooses not to. The administration has been divided over the issue, with some arguing against the designation as the group would be crucial to any future negotiated settlement. The article, authored by Lisa Curtis, asserts that ruling the Haqqani as a terrorist group would bring much-needed clarity to US policy on Afghanistan. She argues this would be particularly effective if the U.S. followed up the designation by applying greater military pressure to compel participation in peace talks.

While we suffer no end of "green-on-blue" attacks.
And our people are restricted by rules of engagement.
They act like they are everyone's enemies.
The Taliban are enemies of humanity.
Is it known what it was they were singing and dancing to? Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Madonna?...Whatever it was, maybe we could use it as an enhanced interrogation tool.
It could have been this.
You got it !!!! That was exactly what they were dancing to. That and listening to William Shattner singing McArthur Park.
HAQQANIS - he be making his beard red with henna just as muhammad did, so he be following the straight path as the arch angel Gabriel whispered in muhammad's ear is the way to make allah happy and go to paradise.... him not terrorist, him pure muhammadan, just like the most perfect schizophrenic man who ever lived, dontcha know...
Singing in the Reign, of Terror.
The Taliban is an equal opportunity batch of murderous thugs.
Crazy thing is they got as much fun out of the beheadings and the revelers got out of dancing.
They probably masturbated while doing it.
Somebody tell me why we went into Afghanistan and why we are still there.
I hope the cast of GLEE is next....
I have never watched it but from what I have heard that the cast would likely not escape the death penalty in Iran.
The homos and the muslims are both operating under the same “prince”, and he won’t let them interfere with one another while they pursue their common enemy, the followers of Jesus.
