    That is one way of looking at it...but haven't we seen the barbarism of the Taliban for years? Why do so many Americans hate Americans more than the Taliban?

    because of the liberal twist on the media that says these poor innocent taliban tribes wouldnt do this if the Americans werent so.............(fill in the Blank)

    Which in reality it really doesnt matter this war is going to last for eternity! Christian and Muslim! it doesnt end even after the troops have been pulled out, no matter how long we stay!

    But I dont agree with Americans living amongst the Taliban either!

    Yes and I have wondered why the homosexual men in the military (thanks to Bill Clinton) who like to dress in drag don't use it to help the cause. Those big garments the women over there wear are loose enough to carry several weapons in and the head-dress would be a good disguise. They ought to sneak in wearing that garb and take them out.....

    It would be too risky for them to be taken hostage. However, if they get Afghan-born Taliban sympathizing reporters, then sure (putting a Taliban Sympathizer wouldn't endanger that reporters life), but then wouldn't it defeat the point of "un-biased" news if you put in a pro-Taliban reporter to cover the Taliban.

    Well, if they want headless reporters, sure,... although I don't believe the Editors would be able to tell any difference in style or substance of reporting.

    Yes, I think so.

    I believe American companies should actually root for the USA. Even if they do not root for the USA, doesn't the average Muslim think it is immoral to sit and do nothing as women are murdered?

    What are they thinking?! Isn't standing by and watching something like that happen as bad as pulling the trigger yourself anymore?!

    No

    No, as an embedded reporter, he is providing free propaganda to terrorists. The AP should have the decency to withdraw their reporters.
