"Taliban say they're no threat to other countries" by Todd Pitman, Associated Press Writer | October 7, 2009
Of course they are not. They are an INDIGENOUS POPULATION that RESENTS the MASS-MURDER of FOREIGN OCCUPATION -- as would YOU, Amurkn!!!
KABUL --Afghanistan's insurgent Taliban marked the eighth anniversary of the U.S. invasion Wednesday saying they have no "agenda" to harm other countries but would continue fighting as long as America and its allies remain in the troubled nation.
But they would give safe haven and harbor to "Al-CIA-Duh!" Pfffft!
The Taliban insistence that it would pose no threat to other countries appeared aimed at countering suspicions that the Islamist movement would support al-Qaida's global jihad if they returned to power. Supporters of the war fear that al-Qaida would regain its once-dominant position in Afghanistan if the Taliban topple the U.S.-backed Afghan government.
You know what? I NO LONGER BELIEVE LYING, AGENDA-PUSHING, Muslim-hating war mongers, 'kay? YOU GUYS have LOST THAT TRUST FOREVER (which is why newspapers are s***ting the bed).
In an Internet statement Wednesday obtained by the SITE Institute, a U.S. group that monitors terror messages, the Taliban said their goal was "independence and establishment of an Islamic system."
Oh, they FINALLY GOT a REAL STATEMENT or is this just a DODGE because of the CHANGE in STRATEGY and FOCUS of the White House war promoters, huh?

And now you know what SITE is seeing and from where.
Did you know that Al Qaeda doesn't even exist?
That there is no Al Qaeda?

"We did not have any agenda to harm other countries including Europe, nor we have such agenda today," the group said. "Still, if you want to turn the country of the proud and pious Afghans into a colony, then know that we have an unwavering determination and have braced for a prolonged war."
The statement came on the anniversary of the U.S. invasion that ousted the Taliban for harboring al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden. U.S. forces first launched airstrikes into Afghanistan on Oct. 7, 2001, less than a month after al-Qaida carried out the Sept. 11 attacks in Washington and New York.
PFFFFFFFFFFFTTTT!!!!
U.S. troops, with help from Northern Alliance militia members from Afghanistan's north, quickly pushed the Taliban out of Kabul and their southern stronghold in Kandahar, leading some U.S. officials to declare the Afghan fight a quick and easy victory.

Yeah, strange how those mass graves are ignored, huh?
But that original military success has turned into an increasingly violent counterinsurgency fight in recent years....
Sort of like the Anti-Christ and his wars, huh?
The Taliban called on foreign forces to leave, an unlikely event despite heated debate in the U.S. over how to quell the conflict. "We call on the American rulers and their allies of the coalition once again to put an end to the game of occupying Afghanistan and killing the Afghans under unsubstantiated pretexts," the statement said.
Then it would seem that the TALIBAN also KNOW the TRUTH about 9/11!
"At the beginning, they were promising they will withdraw within three months, in their words, after eliminating the so-called terrorism," the statement said, referring to U.S. forces. "Contrarily, today, eight years (later) ... they have built up hundreds of military bases in Afghanistan and Iraq."
So the TALIBAN are NOT as STOO-PID ss you think, 'murka -- if this is really them.
Probably is, otherwise the Globe wouldn't have hid this, would they?
"We believed from day one that this is not a war between democracy and the so-called terrorism, but rather a war between the Western colonialism and the freedom-loving nationalist and Islamist forces," the statement said.
A U.N. report issued last month said August was the deadliest month of 2009 for civilians because of violence from the insurgency. A total of 1,500 civilians died in Afghanistan between January and August, up from 1,145 in the same period of 2008. About 68 percent of the deaths were caused by the insurgents, the report said.

Military deaths have also spiked. On Wednesday, a Spanish soldier was killed when a patrol vehicle drove over a mine near the western town of Herat, the Spanish Defense Ministry said.
Elsewhere, an insurgent rocket ripped through a bus on a highway in eastern Afghanistan, killing two people aboard and wounding about 25, the government said. The militants appeared to have been aiming for a nearby police checkpoint in Ghazni province's Qarabagh district, but the rocket fell short of the target and hit the busload of civilians instead, the Interior Ministry said.
Sure it wasn't an AmeriKan missile, and would the AmeriKan MSM tell us if it was?
Meanwhile, American and Afghan forces battled militants in neighboring Wardak province, killing a number of insurgents. U.S. forces spokeswoman Capt. Regina Gillis declined to say exactly how many militants died, but said it was fewer than 10. No casualties were reported among American or Afghan forces. The troops were attacked while searching a compound used by a Taliban group believed to be organizing bomb attacks in the area, a NATO statement said.
Yeah, I can SEE WHY the Globe didn't want to print this.
Afghanistan's Defense Ministry said Afghan forces also killed eight militants in two separate battles Tuesday in Zabul and Wardak provinces.
--more--"
Yup, my big-city, New England's largest, printed paper is giving us all the news we need to know.
So WHAT ELSE are they HIDING, CONCEALING, OMITTING and IGNORING, readers?
