SNOW TALIBAN?

Exclusive: The Taliban war
========================

The Taliban are alive and well and still oppressing people in
Afghanistan no matter what the British or Afghan governments might claim and
tonight we'll show you the proof in the form of one incident caught on
camera.

It all takes place in wilds of Helmand province - where thousands of
British troops are being deployed to try to bring order and tackle the
poppy fields. The Taliban in Helmand have been waging a campaign against
education - burning schools, attacking teachers, terrorising all
concerned.

An independent team working for Channel 4 News in Helmand got a tip off
that such an attack was underway and went to film it in progress as a
group of Taliban set fire to a school. Incidentally it is worth
mentioning the Taliban were clearly Afghans and not foreigners from Pakistan as
is often claimed by President Karzai.

While our team were filming the Taliban attack a group of Afghan armed
police arrived to defend the school. Chaos ensued in which most of the
Taliban got away, our team got beaten up and the school got burned. And
this is the chaos our soldiers are walking into.

Watch the report. Fucking tops stuff from Channel 4 as usual.
