"US reporter escapes Taliban captors" By Keith B. Richburg, Washington Post | June 21, 2009
NEW YORK - A New York Times reporter kidnapped by the Taliban and held for seven months in the rugged mountainous region along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border escaped Friday, along with a local Afghan reporter, by climbing over a wall and finding a nearby Pakistani army base, according to the newspaper, US officials, and the journalist’s family.
How come they didn't kill him like the Pearl fella?
All right, let's try to take this at face value for a while even though it sounds ridiculous.
David Rohde, 41, was taken captive Nov. 10 along with local reporter Tahir Ludin, 35, and their driver while Rohde was researching a book on Afghanistan.
Now he has SOME TALL TALE to TELL, huh?
News organizations did not report on the abduction at the request of the Times and Rohde’s relatives, who feared that publication of the news could endanger the lives of the captives.
So they SIT ON BUSH'S SPYING, they SIT on THIS!!
WHAT ELSE is the NEW YORK TIMES SITTING on and HIDING from the American people, huh?
NO WONDER NO ONE READS THEM anymore!
And they DIDN'T SEEM TOO WORRIED about the ARAB and MUSLIM VICTIMS of THEIR WAR LIES!!!!!
That's why they are affectionately known as the Jew York Times!
Rohde was kidnapped after he, Ludin, and their driver, Assadullah Mangal, 24, set out by car for a prearranged interview with a local Taliban commander. Rohde, described by friends and colleagues as a brave but cautious reporter who always measured risks before traveling, told colleagues at the newspaper’s Kabul bureau that he expected to be fine. But as a precaution, he left instructions on whom to call if he did not return.
STINKS all the MORE, doesn't it?
The reporter, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, was beginning work on a book about the history of US involvement in Afghanistan. He had been held captive in 1995 in Bosnian Serb territory while reporting for the Christian Science Monitor on mass killings at the height of the Bosnian war.
Think he will TELL the TRUTH about Tim Osman, 'er, Bin Laden and "Al-CIA-Duh?"

The Times said Rohde and Ludin escaped by climbing over a wall of the compound where they were being held. They walked until they came upon a Pakistani soldier, near Miran Shah, the main town of North Waziristan.

Okay, improbable but possible. Let's give 'em a chance....
NEW YORK - Two journalists held over seven months by the Taliban in Pakistan endured death threats before they escaped by tricking guards and dropping down a 20-foot wall with a rope, according to one of the former captives.
I'm already not liking it.
Afghan journalist Tahir Ludin provided the details in an interview published yesterday by The New York Times.
Now I know it's a fantastic lie.
Ludin was held captive along with David Rohde, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist at the Times who grew up in Maine and graduated from Brown University, and their driver, Asadullah Mangal. Ludin said the past two to three months seemed so “hopeless’’ that he considered committing suicide with a knife.
Ludin said the driver appeared to be overwhelmed by fear of their captors and had not participated in the escape. The journalists were abducted Nov. 10 near the Afghan capital of Kabul. They escaped Friday. They plotted to keep their captors awake as late as possible to ensure they would eventually sleep soundly. Ludin challenged them to a board game....
THAT'S IT!!!!
That is just ANOTHER NYT WHOPPER in a LONG LIST of LIES!!!!!!!
I'm so tired of the AmeriKan jewsmedia running down the Taliban.
How many times I gotta put this up?
"Something of a catchall term for loosely affiliated insurgents without a singular command structure. Often, the Afghan government favors the phrase 'enemies of the state' (New York Times July 24, 2007)."
"The Taliban is growing and creating new alliances not because its sectarian religious practices have become popular, but because it is the only available umbrella for national liberation," says Pakistani historian and political commentator Tariq Ali. "As the British and the Soviets discovered to their cost in the preceding two centuries, Afghans never like being occupied."

And today, readers?
"More and more, people here look back to the era of harsh Taliban rule from 1996 to 2001, describing it as a time of security and peace."
Oh, oh, oh!!!! I'm so offended by the AmeriKan MSM and its bullshit!

"They sat in one girl’s home telling their story, their faces uncovered only because no man was present. But when Mohammed Matloob, the father of one of the girls, walked into the room, the other three quickly pulled their head scarves over their faces. His daughter, Nagina, 16, ordered him to leave the room, which he did, with a surprised shrug."

"The U.S. government was well aware of the Taliban's reactionary program, yet it chose to back their rise to power in the mid-1990s. The creation of the Taliban was "actively encouraged by the ISI and the CIA," according to Selig Harrison, an expert on U.S. relations with Asia. "The United States encouraged Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to support the Taliban, certainly right up to their advance on Kabul," adds respected journalist Ahmed Rashid. When the Taliban took power, State Department spokesperson Glyn Davies said that he saw "nothing objectionable" in the Taliban's plans to impose strict Islamic law, and Senator Hank Brown, chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on the Near East and South Asia, welcomed the new regime: "The good part of what has happened is that one of the factions at last seems capable of developing a new government in Afghanistan." "The Taliban will probably develop like the Saudis. There will be Aramco [the consortium of oil companies that controlled Saudi oil], pipelines, an emir, no parliament and lots of Sharia law. We can live with that," said another U.S. diplomat in 1997."
We can "LIVE WITH THAT?"
Yeah, kinda like the way the keep "Al-CIA-Duh going!!!!
