The women, dressed in blue burqas, were shot and killed just outside Ghazni city in central Afghanistan, said Sayed Ismal, a spokesman for Ghazni's governor. He called the two "innocent local people." Taliban fighters told Associated Press Television News the two women were executed for allegedly running a prostitution ring catering to U.S. soldiers and other foreign contractors at a U.S. base in Ghazni city." Before the U.S. invasion, the Taliban were eradicating the poppy fields and destroying idols. The U.S. shows up and the place becomes the opium capital of the planet (I'm sure CIA is not making a DIME off the magical increase in poppy production) —striekar |
