From the Dept. of 'Saw That Coming': Taliban celebrate beheading of police officer in grisly video

EXCLUSIVE — The Taliban beheaded an Afghan local police officer, then chanted praise to their leader while holding the severed head of their victim by his hair in a video posted in a private Taliban chat room.

The 36-second video, which was obtained by the Washington Examiner, was posted a week ago. It’s unclear when it was made, but on Aug. 17, Taliban leaders promised amnesty for government workers and protection for women.

“I would like to assure the international community, including the United States, that nobody will be harmed,” said Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid. “We don’t want any internal or external enemies.”

... gory description follows.


Even though there's no date given for the event, I expect it to be one repeated as the Taliban begins a campaign of eliminating everyone who had even a tangential relationship with the U.S.

Old Taliban saying: "Oh, shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin. "You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in."

BTW, T**** loved this poem so much that he repeated it at many of his rallies. Ironically, while he used it to illustrate the evils of immigration, it was penned by noted civil rights activist Oscar Brown, who wrote it as a "celebration of black culture and a repudiation of racism." The song "The Snake" was recorded by soul singer Al Wilson in 1968.
