Yes, the ultimate cash crop, the biggest chunk of their GDP.
That would be the logical place to start then, wouldn't it?.
Killing him would do them more harm than good. Just an cowardly act of frustration I guess
Yes it is very cowardly and you make a good point here about the ridiculous exchange.
Governments can not give in to this type of thing.
And to me it seems as if they were ill-equipped and frustrated by this policy.
ah, that is where obl comes in. there billions of $ coming from ksa towards this cause.
Sorry plk123, who or what is obl and ksa? and why would they support the Taliban?.
but obviously not true as talibs are against narco markets.
Obviously it is not part of the religion but with some warped logic it would be easy to justify, don't you think?.
By warped logic I mean sell the drugs to the infidels in the west, they will do our job for us and give us the money to fight.
I am just putting a theory out there, I don't know.

With all due respect, I have to ask you plk123, how is it you know so much about this topic?.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Jihad and Crusades all over again?.
I see a lot of angry posters who are implying retaliation using equally heinous tactics that are used by the Taliban.
It is understandable to a degree and I am neither for or against such talk, I just thought I would point it out.
