Taliban Rep Literally LOLs at Petraeus Sex Scandal

After years of fighting, it seems the West has finally found some common ground with the Taliban: Both find the Petraeus sex scandal highly amusing.

Asked by an AFP reporter to comment on the Petraeus affair, an unnamed Taliban in Afghanistan official described as "stony-faced" literally laughed out loud.

"From a Shariah point of view, he should be stoned to death."

Still, much like the majority of Americans, the Taliban rep didn't think it was that big a deal.
