Taliban "Demands" U.S. Leave Gulf
The Associated Press | Monday, September 24, 2001

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - The leader of Afghanistan's ruling Taliban militia said Monday the United States must withdraw forces from the Gulf and support the Palestinians in their conflict with Israel if it wants to remove the threat of terrorism.

In a statement faxed to news agencies, Mullah Mohammed Omar said the death of alleged terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden would do little to remove the threat against the United States.

``If Americans want to eliminate terrorism, then they should withdraw their forces from the Gulf and they should put an end to the partial attitude on the issue of Palestine,'' Omar said.

i think we should capture the taliban and put them in a buidling and start unmanned flying jets into the building so they can get a good idea why we are after terrorists. better yet, let's just tie a 24 foot length rope around their genitals, take them to a 25 foot bridge bridge, attach a 25 lb rock to the other end of the rope, and see how they react!

We'd like our carriers to leave the gulf, but we can't seem to find them.

Can't you see it now? Our aircract carriers making a u turn, our panes turing round, all because they 'demanded' it? I am sure they are depending on "ALLAH' but hasn't someone told them yet that he departed on the last flight out of there? They have not seen hell fall on them as is it getting ready to do. A differant time, a different nationm, a different method is coming. God bless America.

Our people should keep an eye out for smiling and waving men on rubber rafts.

Are these Mullah Mohammed Omar's non-negotiable demands for President Bush?

hehe
haha

We'll see who has a bigger stick. Obviously, Mullah Mohammed Omar is not confident in his military because he's talking as if Bin Laden is a dead man.

Yeah, this reminds me of the joke about the mouse floating down the river on his back with an erection, shouting "RAISE THE DRAWBRIDGE!"

OK, I guess we should allow foreign radicals to formulate US foreign policy. /sarcasm
That's worse than "better red than dead".
