Has anyone heard the story of the taliban using children as suicide bombers? I couldn't believe even hearing that kife what kind of monsters are these men? They of course denied it out of their teeth saying it was propaganda but a tape surfaced in april and in it was a boy of 12 decapatating a taliban prisoner and that was deemed a war crime. Just a tad hypocritical on the part of the taliban.

    Hey Emily,
    Just wondering about your source? I'd like to read more about this. Could you post a link to the article you read?

      There's this, Georgie -- I haven't been able to verify what it says about a video

      http://www.telegraph.co.u...007/06/27/wtaliban127.xml

      but also there are reports of anti-Taliban forces regularly using children under 15 as soldiers.

          oops. i didn't notice that was a US government report. Here's a Fox News report, instead:

            These Islamist extremists constantly use women and children as shields, they place weapons within residential areas, we have seen this for instance in the Palestinian territories and Lebanon, they have no moral scruples.

                Whoa man! Lol starrman...This is most interesting...you think kids should be in the military yet you are against their superiors opting to use them in battle? Or did you not think of that in your statements of annoyance and children?

                  This is my two cents...
