Yep. And if it wasn't so sad, the level of ignorance would be absolutely hilarious.

I found this particularly ignorant:

"This situation created by US drone strikes is more dangerous than the polio virus," the pamphlet said.

Yeah, targeted strikes against militants ARE more dangerous to them than a virus that targets innocent children. Way to go, Taliban.

"We'll kill our own children until the drone strikes stop"...........okay.......see how that works for ya.

The real question is...what will the Taliban do to retaliate against the British-Irish boy band One Direction and their Muslim band member, Zayn Malik.

Epic Fail.

Stop killing our militants or we will let our children get polio!

Great, now they can stop referring to children killed in drone strikes as "civilian deaths" and start calling it "euthanasia".

As they say " Cut your nose off to spite your face " Radical IDIOTS.

The poem goes as follows: "Sy and I went to the circus, Sy got kicked by a wooden horse, We'll get even with the doggone circus, We'll buy a ticket but we won't go in!" Why do we support these morons? We need to get the heck out of there, NOW. Don't tell me it's hard to do. It is not hard to do. Everyone packs their duffle bag, climbs on a plane and flies out. As far as equipment all that CAN be loaded should be and then flown out. What can't be should be blown to bits so they can't use it. That will NOT cost anymore money than we are wasting when we continue to throw it down that whole rathole of a region.

How awful to hold their children hostage over this. Shows the level of love and compassion they have towards their fellow humans, especially the children!

And as always in any conflict, the ones who pay the ultimate price are the most innocent and least deserving of being on the receiving end of pain and hatred.

When are we as a species going to evolve beyond warmongering and focus on the important things in life, like our children, our future?

Ah... the wonderful logic of religious fundamentalism...

What would one expect from a group that breeds/treats their women like cattle. Not that I think cattle should be maltreated.

Just another form of using innocents as human shields -- craven cowards!

Yep more religious nonsense clouding their minds. In fact once their country is messed up they immigrate to others and will do the same. So do us a favor and stay there!

"Either do what I say, or I'll kill myself." Okay, I'm good with it.

What morons. What would be more moronic is if anyone falls for it.

Using their own children's health as a pawn. The taliban are on the same level as pedophiles.

Fine! I guess we don't have to worry about the next generation of Taliban Terrorists.

I guess this is an example of the old adage "Cutting off one's nose to spite his face."

Guess your gonna have a Polio outbreak............

I say keep up the drone attacks and arm them with live polio virus. If they aren't afraid of their children getting polio let's help the adults in the Taliban see what it's like. These people are a scorge on this earth.

Obviously Pakistan is going along, they are allowing the Taliban to remain in Pakistan. This whole region is stuck in the middle ages, we ought to leave them that way and move out, cut our losses and stop feeding Pakistan.

The Taliban regime needs to be exterminated like the cock roaches that they are. Shame on Obama's administration and any other for that matter who wants to have a dialogue with such inhumane pure evil. Remember these are the same people who only 15 years ago used to have weekly executions in their soccer fields and beheadings of innocent women and children for spectator sport. The world would be a much better place without them regardless of their support of Al'qiada.

And why does this action surprise anyone? I'm not a big one for interfering in other sovereign countries business but the Taliban are barbaric by most definitions of the word.

They care about one thing, their religious fanaticism. If their children get in the way of that they will stone them to death or worse. These people are animals. That should not come as a surprise to anyone after all these years.

I have a feeling the Taliban are going to become less popular among some of their most avid supporters. Especially those with children.

MIKE680333

What does our President have to do with these Maniacs choices. If they want a Country of sick children what does President Obama have to do with it? You sound as crazy as they do!!! The US got who they wanted now move on.

I wonder if it will at some point dawn on these people that we will not be intimidated by them putting their little future terrorists at risk...I think Forest Gump said it best...

So if we don't stop the drone flights, then they will start killing off their next generation of militant Islam extremists, so their whacky ideas will also die too? Hmmmm.....................doesn't sound like too bad a trade-off to me! I'LL TAKE IT!

Taliban commander in Pakistan’s tribal belt has banned a vaccination campaign against child polio in protest over frequent United States drone attacks there

I think my IQ dropped several points after reading this....

The anti-vaccine Americans are rejoicing....

Who cares..be less of them in future then..they are the worlds most idiot sicko's!

This is happening here in America.. Drones are now flying over major cities. We have people poisoning their young with chickenpox, hep , etc through the mail with infected lollipops. We have a whole side of American politics that want to ban health care for those who can't afford it.

Americans need to focus on rebuilding America first. We have been in Afghanistan for almost 11 years, under a misguided feeble attempt at Democracy. Afghanistan was/is and remains a distraction. The attacks were ordered from within the US on 9-11.. Israel had a hand in it as well. We have diseases here in America that are making a comeback, whooping cough, measels, etc. . If they want to kill their children in Afghanistan, so be it. Its their country, not Americas. We have millions of starving, malnourished children in America, many of who are dying, and the American people are turning their backs on them everyday! Most of America cares more about the world than they do the problems in their own backyard...

Let Afghanistan fail miserable. Its not Americas job to rebuild each and every nation and fix their problems. We can't help ourselves, why help the world?

Go ahead you sheep, blast me. But I am saying what 99% of you are thinking. We are spread way to thin around this globe that we are falling fast here at home. We are $14 Trillion in debt and the right just wants to spend more on Wars with Iran, China & Russia. Tax-cuts for the rich.. Yeah we can do that under a Mittens Presidency. Just print money from thin air like King George did, 3 times to you sheep of America.. Rebates or hand-outs, one in the same..

AMERICA & AMERICANS FIRST!!

Mom, Mike is just trying to troll and make this political ... But no one really took the bait.

You are as ignorant as the Taliban, michael.

That'll teach us

Hey!! These Little Kids need this @!$%# to fend off polio!!! What kind of "taliban commanders" - men are these?? Pakistan is such a pathetic place, filled with hand holding loving "men" first..... they don't like Women and probably are afraid of them.............

Apparently, the Taliban has Borderline Personality Disorder.

Wow, I'm just SHOCKED to hear this. <sarcasm>

The Taliban are filthy cockroaches. Let's quit wasting our money on third world, lawless countries and concentrate on our own children here.

Shandril,

I thought it was Schizophrenia, but you could be right.

Now what do I know about the Taliban....they dominate their women treating them more like possessions than people...they burn schools which we built to educate them...they adhere to a system that they refer to as "honor killing" where only the women die...and now in an attempt to provide increased safety for their wartime leaders they are willing to sacrifice their children and prolong an epidemic which has killed and maimed tens of thousands....

....no further justification for our fight against them is required my me!

Uh, I'm failing to grasp their logic here...somebody help me out?

There has only been 22 drone attacks so far this year in that country with between 128 to 156 people killed already. The total number of polio infections was 198 (2011) to 144 (2010) in the previous years, NOT DEATHS. In those same years 993 to 607 (2010) and 536 to 378 (2011) people died in drone attacks.

Simple math should tell you why they did this, not to mention the fact there might STILL be spying going on, but anytime children are involved the bleeding hearts start up, and logic goes out the window. Hate on logic all you want.

Backwards thinking idiots!!! These poor children....

Spider, if we don't stop bombing them, they will kill their own young, and create an epidemic in their own area infecting even more people.

I just don't know what we should do, its such a hard decision.

I don't know about you, but I'd ramp up the drone attacks in response to this.

I don't know about you, but I'd ramp up the drone attacks in response to this.

That's a good idea. I second that!

My Mama told me " Stupid is as stupid does"

F. Gump

Maybe our drones should drop the Ebola virus in the Taliban controlled areas - sorrta like doing the whole world a ginormous favour?

Goes to show that the Pakistani Taliban and their co-conspirators, the Haqqani network, are little more than crime syndicates. They really don't give a crap about forming a stable society or bettering the lives of their local population. All they care about is lining their own pockets and the whole Islamic Fundamentalism thing is just a facade to give them legitimacy amongst a highly religious population.

Mom and Sam.... read the story again. Why is it that Liberals are SO sure of what they DON'T know? lol...

The Taliban don't want the people giving out Polio vaccine because they fear it's a CIA cover operation. The Paki doctor who turned in Osama was working in a similar operation. He took a DNA sample to confirm his identity. It's not me "trolling" or "turning it political". Simply stating the FACTS! I'm sorry that's so hard for you to comprehend. It's truly not a right or left thing...it was just a major mistake by Barry and team to disclose the Doctors name. As highlighted by the fact that one of the most liberal senators on record is calling him out for doing that.

Why not just ignore them completely? For every person killed in a terrorist attack around the world, 58 people in THIS country die because they lack health insurance.

We live in a knee-jerk society that is fearful of all things sensational. More people die every year in this country because of accidental handgun discharges than do people from terrorist activities. Terrorism garners the headlines but the real damage is being done by high fructose corn syrup (that we subsidize).

Does anyone ever take the time to think about our priorities as a nation? All kinds of information out there about statistical probabilities. Maybe we should consult a few charts before we take action.

The taliban is like people here that vote against their own interest, i.e., the poor and middle-class voting republican so the rich will have less taxes (more money) and their will have less government (no healthcare, less teachers, firemen, cops, street repair, bridge repair, etc.).

I feel for the children who will suffer and die from polio. The taliban will then say it was US bio warfare that caused it not refusing to let the children be vaccinated. They will never take responsibility for their actions and Pakistan will cry for medical aid from the same people who they wanted out of their country.

Well, I usually don't get vulgar on these threads, although some times sacrastically nasty, and I thought about this for quite some time, but decided it needed to be said, even if I do get suspended, so here goes:

This is scientific proof that f--king camels results in Taliban.

Have a very good day.

Sounds about as intelligent as some of the statements our politicians have said during the campaign for President. Has this whole planet caught the "dumb" virus?

now how on Earth can you negotiate with people that have this train of reasoning, i have long since found myself unable to believe that these people also live on the same planet as myself.

So, did the taliban just say "neener, neener, neener" to the US?

"Until the drone strikes stop I will cut off my nose!"

Terry-753375 Comment collapsed by the community

And I couldn't give a big ratz ass about whether or not the Pakis kids get polio shots.

And an example of some of us in the "civilized world" who descend to the same level of the Talibarbarians...

Pakistan people like the Taliban (they protect them and help them), so if they want to shoot themselves in the foot... big deal. I'm sure their kids are at more risk of starvation or dying of illness from dirty drinking water, etc. I'd think that polio wouldn't be at the top of their worries. That saves the taxpayers of the US money by not having to pay for this... another plus.

Eric-913730 ""We'll kill our own children until the drone strikes stop"...........okay.......see how that works for ya."

Good perspective. Finally, we agree on something - miracles do happen.

The people here who seem to shrug off dying children as a good thing ("future terrorists"?) are as sick as the Taliban.

That will show those Americans! What kind of ethics can justify this?

ORB. You mean like the white man gave the Native American blankets for the winter months infected with small pox. What a creep.

Not really sure about all the reason for the outpouring of hatred here. Does anyone sincerely believe that the CIA hasn't been running under cover agents through the WHO and the far-reaching polio program? And do you think they are not going to be providing ground intelligence? And do you seriously believe that children don't die in the drone attacks?

Jon Stewart explained it much better than me:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/14/jon-stewart-news-leaks-drones-video_n_1596361.html

Hafiz, I've got to give you credit. I didn't think that anybody that was that stupid could get to a supervisory level. Congratulations, you proved me wrong.

He must be being cheered on by those idiots here at home that don't immunize their kids for any discernable logical reason. At least they're not in policy making positions.

We're probably going to beg them to reconsider.

Using helpless children to accomplish their sick religious goals; this is yet another example of the “Religion of Peace” in action. These Taliban barbarians should all drown in their own pool of ignorance and hate.

Jorge-2541621-- Absolute ignorance.

This is not a shock. The Taliban have no value for any human life. Kids are a pawn. The real Taliban, like Al Qaeda send others to die for them and their cause whether they want to or not. Somehow this will be America's fault. Not the Taliban's.

Let our children contract a paralyzing and potentially deadly disease thus reducing the number of future militants if you don't stop killing our current militants? LMFAO the bleepin morons!!!

I know Kristian your right, I just like to mess with all the hippies, I agree with you these people have no respect for kids women gays or anybody who disagrees with them must be killed.

I just hate when our own country and politicians, bash our this country and our Military.

God Bless Amreica! I am Mexican!

It's like I said the Taliban is a government that doesn't have a country. As for Pakistan it just may be to latefor them. They are making their bad right now. The taliban has found a new country to rule. They don't worry about that Sovergn Nation stuff.

Get off your freekin high horse. If the roles were reversed and the US said we'll hurt or kill our children if they don't stop terrorist attacks, they'd dance in the bleeping streets!!! Unfortunately, I fear a major war with potentially 100s of millions dead is coming, then maybe the vast majority of haters will finally be exposed for the losers they are and a more positive world order can prevail. Until then...

This is great news, let them kill themselves off. Maybe the terrorists will eventually die out with no new recruits. Finally a really good story involving muslim radical dogs.

OMG JORGE IS A MEXICAN!!!! git im!!!!! rabblerabblerabble :D

TFNJ: it's not a hard decision. Negotiating with terrorists only validates their actions in their mind leading to more terrorism and hostage taking. It sucks that kids will die but you don't negotiate with evil. you destroy it.

Has this whole planet caught the "dumb" virus?

Well, evidently the Taliban have.

Does this suprise anyone? What else would you expect from a bunch for primitive fifth century goons?

Well, in a few years, many will be in iron lungs that were made in the USA.

This story can't be real.

Who's their advisor...Jenny McCarthy?

Amanda - 2017567

When we concentrate on feeding the civilized instead of the ignorant.

This, no less then the beheading of Nick Burg shows these thugs true colors. Do what we want, or we'll allow OUR OWN CHILDREN die from this disease. So let me see, in their twisted fanatical thinking, flying a plane into a building and killing thousands gets them 72 virgins, as long as the victims were declared an "enemy" in some sort of jihad. But what does allowing 10s or 100s of thousands of innocent babies from other Muslim families buy them?

They're either idiots, brainwashed to an unbelievable degree, or so utterly nepharious that they're practically evil incarnate. Stop the strikes or we'll let our babies die :o What will be next, pulling the triger on their own babies, if the drone strokes don't attack? There's no way these people could have an ounce of sanity, with actions/threats like this. Not even in war (and this jihad was one of their own creation and their own declaration), is the world so far gone they'd just let their own kids die like this, without seeing a problem with that sort of thinking....

How about? We stop the drone attacks, and the immunizations....and every single other little bit of aid we give these @!$%#s?

Pull out of trashcanastan while we are at it. How many American soilders have to die so the CIA can keep selling heroin?

I would really like to see a constitutional amendment that stipulates that the US will have zero relations with any country that has a theocracy or any religious based government. Yes, that would mean Saudi Arabia and Israel too. To hell with the whole region. If we are gonna be paying 3$+ a gallon for gas from now on no matter what, we can afford to use North American oil!

The way the Tea Party is going we could be next

If only we could be sure that only the Taliban would contract polio, this could be a great piece of news. Unfortunately, it will be innocent children and others who don't support the radical regime that will be most affected. Like so many others on this board, I say let's get the h--out of that part of the world. We aren't wanted, and we certainly don't need the grief we receive from these treacherous terrorists.

It is a very viable and effective strategy. It is mean and nasty to the children, to all the children of the world, but if some maniac kept flying over my land dropping bombs, I would consider that strategy. For once, the Taliban plays the same game the US does. Global pressure, global interests, global losses.

This is not a dumb backwoods individual, this is a dangerous person. How utterly interesting.

Jorge: God Bless Amreica! I am Mexican! (copy/paste, not my spelling of America)

...good for you, now do America a favor, and stay there.

...PS, Jorge, YOUR country has a lot a problems, perhaps you'd be better off addressihng your concerns there, okay?

I have a feeling the Taliban are going to become less popular among some of their most avid supporters. Especially those with children.

Maybe those who have been victims under these POS will finally fight back...

My God they're only children...no wonder they grow up hating...

"While causing psychological disorders “due to drone strikes and round the clock hovering of spy planes over homes and villages".

We speak of the Taliban here. Their citizens have always been expendable. It will continue even if the drone attacks stop. They have the worst history for torment and abuse of their own citizens. With their well known suicide bombings, etc., that kill their citizens without a second thought, they say”we are causing "Psychological disorders"

It is a crime against humanity.

I want to say we sincerely and truly we do not know whats really going on over their even when the media reports their rant..I wouldn't want those things flying over me, and we shouldn't be their anymore(Militarily).

It reminds me of the sex camp the Taliban was operating near Kabul at the beginning of the war where they were using children as young as 6 as sex slaves (boys and girls). If girls got prenant, they killed them. When our troops entered Kabul, they shot all the children and stacked their bodies up (about 100 children) and burned them to try and hide what they were doing. The Taliban LOVE their children!

I find the outrage to this story rather ironic, seeing as how more and more American parents are refusing to vaccinate their own kids.

As well they should. We could be using that program to spy!

Guess this is directed at us at Northeastern Afghanistan, conducting Special Surveillance for Redacted (to determine exactly who the targets are and who are supporting them) on the Fundamentalist Islamic Pakistanis Taliban, Fundamentalist Islamic Haqquini Network, the other Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists and calling in MQ strikes. To those that think that we target women and children, wrong, we target those supporting the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists (women smuggling weapons, ammunition, bomb making materials, etc.; children acting as lookouts and armed guards (just like we encountered as the Children Soldiers of Africa)), completely against US Laws as the President Obama January 21, 2009 Patriot Acts, section of No Material Support to Terrorist Organizations.

While on this side of the border as part of our Humanitarian Assistance Mission, providing Medical Visits every week to the Afghan Villages.

I previously told all of you about what the Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban do/did to the Afghan children and US and International Aid Workers if caught Collaborating with the Christians, Jews, Unbelievers.

Most seem not to realize that Biological Warfare does NOT remain within the man made borders of a Nation and can spread rapidly Worldwide in an Outbreak. Didn't the H1N1 Outbreak teach any of you anything about Epidemiology.

I previously told all of you of the US History of building up Afghanistan as a 20th Century Nation as a US Ally and the results before of the US abandoning US Ally Afghanistan after Operation Cyclone, and the Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban massacring all the 1980s Pro US Afghan Muhajeen (20,000 to 50,000), then also massacring their Families, Relatives, In Laws, etc. as suspected co conspirators; then they went on to massacre any suspected Collaborators to the Christians, Jews, Unbelievers, etc. to the extent that the trees at the Afghan Cities were filled with dead Afghans beaten then hung by the neck. They then grabbed the Buddhists, Taoists, etc. and poured gasoline on them and lite them on fire, screaming at them that if they want to protest by lighting themselves on fire, the Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban will help them, attempted to dynamite the Great Buddhas. Eventually, the Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban started to destroy everything that was "Non Islamic", "Western", "Modern", etc. and after they destroyed the Electric Power Stations the Lights literally went out at Afghanistan. Same thing they are doing at Somalia, the destruction of all the "Non Islamic", "Modern", "Western" built up during UN Mission Somalia I and UN Mission Somalia II to end the Somalis Cycles of Droughts and Famine, as Fundamentalist Islams use of Starvation as a Weapon.

I told all of you before where the Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban (Afghanistan) came from, as well as how and why the Fundamentalist Islamic Pakistan Taliban was created.

This is the same as the Fundamentalist Islamic Pakistanis Taliban stopping the US/International Assistance from entering Pakistan after the flood at Pakistan, and then blaming the US (u saaah) and other Nations for not helping the people of Pakistan, since the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists are at the level of the people everyday the people believe the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists and not the US Ally Government of Pakistan nor what anyone else says.

This is NOT unusual for Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists, this is how they are raised since birth as the Fundamentalist Islamic Belief.

Lusitania,

If you don't believe what is happening here (Afghanistan) there is a little known highly competitive "Objective Observer" Program so that you can come here and see for yourself. By the way the MQs fly high enough to remain out of sight of the women and children used as Lookouts (kind of like the Coast Watchers of WWII, that report the speed, direction, altitude of any aircraft to the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists as just one of their means to defeat US "High Tech").

Not to discourage you Lusitania, in most cases the experienced (with Combat) International News Media get the slots for the "Objective Observer" Program; I previously unwillingly participated in providing this program until it was suspended for us (recently reinstated) after not allowing the "Objective Observer" to leave after the second day, the only "Objective Observer" that stayed the whole week was a 3rd Infantry Division Soldier (he wrote that it was amusing that there are those that are worse off than "grunts"), the DOD US Civilian from Iraq stayed for about 3 days, the DOD US Civilian from Germany stayed for 1 day, the US Civilian stayed for 2 days and demanded we get him the hell out of here. It is not the case that we can call in a helicopter to extract them and compromise our Teams positions.

Those of you that seem to believe that the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists are "just the Radicals" in small numbers, need to go Research just how many of the Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban (Afghanistan), Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban (Pakistan), Fundamentalist Islamic Haqquini Network (Afghanistan, Pakistan), Fundamentalist Islamic Army of Islam (Pakistan, not the US Ally Pakistanis Military), Fundamentalist Islamic Hamas Foreign Fighters, Fundamentalist Islamic International Franchise of Al Quada (and all their offshoots like Fundamentalist Islamic Ansar Al Islam), Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadist Foreign Fighters (Chechen, Yemen, Kurdistanis, etc.) there are. Then research who is Fully Supporting them with 21st Century Weapons from the Russian Federation and Chinese, Funding, Islamic Sanctuary, their Special Forces Quds Training the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists, etc. as stated by General McChrystal based on captured evidence; with General McChrystal getting a Letter of Reprimand for saying this to the International News Media as against President Obama's March 2009 Policy (go research President Obama's March 2009 Policy, the title says it all).

David you're not in the mountains, not in any army, not an earthquake rescuer, not eating rock moss at 6000', don't speak for anybody, are not responsible for any security, and not very observant.

sobi- The US has every right to protect itself from people who openly want to destroy us. In any land. The Pakistani's have proven they like playing both sides. We can not trust them, so we will do it our self. Like all terrorist leaders who use mentally challenged kids for suicide bombers, they are afraid to die for their beliefs. Common sense tells a sane person, Bin laden was scared when we raided his compound and I wish I could have seen the look on his face when the US Seals kicked in his door. His kind are not men of honor, just murdering cowards to use kids and women as shields.

they're... some screwed up people...

What was it that Forrest Gump said, "stupid is as stupid does"?

Eric,

I thought Darwin said that?

No Darwin said natural selection determines the outcome of a species and in this case natural selection will seal the fate of their outcome.

Good news. Let the Pakis get a lot of polio cases and this is less money we US tax payers need to give to the Pakis. Just stop all aid money to the Pakis and stop issuing Visas to them to come here. Keep the drones flying.

rrobeson

Eric,

I thought Darwin said that?

I believe Forest said it but Darwin enforces it.

Orkin is now coming out with a blimp drone to spray them. They shoot it down and it blows up and disinfects the whole area.

First, this is a msm report. How much longer are the American people going to believe what they say? Listen to all the vile posts here about how we should exterminate the Taliban. How about we worry about America and let these counties take care of themselves. All these news reports are used to get the masses worked up so when we do attack them no one cares. We keep attacking other countries with wreakless abandon and it will come back to us 10 fold. I am sick and tired of our troop being put in harms way for nothing but profit and greed. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!

<><><> QUOTE ... "We can forgive them for killing our children. But we cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children." .....Golda Meier" UNQUOTE <><><>

Darwin would only enter in, because twisted logic like this could earn one the Darwin award :o

'...rid the world of these 'Taliban insects.'

'this is yet another example of the "Religion of Peace" in action.'

""We'll kill our own children until the drone strikes stop"...........okay.......see how that works for ya."

Good perspective. Finally, we agree on something - miracles do happen.

Every post that mentions making war on a people or their religion sounds like terrorist rhetoric. More importantly, how can anyone believe that children dead or crippled for life are a good thing?

How is that different from the Taliban and their methods?

Look at the little angel in the photo. How could you NOT want to help them? There is something so wrong with these people.... They hate the Jews so much that they want them annihilated and they own all the land in the Middle East except Isreal! Why do they want that LITTLE piece of land? The Jews have been persecuted throughout history yet they still become doctors and lawyers who try to save humanity: and yet are vilified. Muslim extremists are such losers. They are probably uneducated (except on the Koran) and they don't know how to save humanity or do anything productive because they are all a tribal backward people................they must find a place in the world to prove themselves and blowing up children and people are the only way they can do it. They are haters and only want to kill.....

They've already domonstrated a willingness to kill children just because it's Tuesday. I'm just suspicious of the story because it's missing from Al Jazeera - often a hotspot of profound declarations.

The Taliban are so dense that light bends around them.

USA evangelicals also reject polio vaccins... Or vaccins whatsoever. Just listen to Michelle Bachmann. Well. I guess the Taliban just copied her agenda.

Although her husband is working on an anti-gay vaccine !! He should try it himself first to see if it works !!

Maybe so, MGrinder; Whatever. But at least the USA evangelicals can spell "vaccine". It never cease to amaze me that people can allegedly read a news article and then misspell a name or word used repeatedly in the article.

Hafiz Gul Bahadur = Pucking Futz

I have read many comments posted. The Taliban has repeatly demonstrated that they have no respect for life. I also, have a question, the Pakistan Government said they did not know that Bin Laden was in Pakistan. Please explain why the taliban dictates what the "government" does and why has the Dr. that help locate Bin Laden been sentenced to 33 years for treason? We also know that some loud mouth in the Obama administration leaked the info about who the Dr.is that helped us.

Sickofthieves, the Pakistani law dictates that any national citizen aiding any other sovereign state (even an ally) can be found guilty of treason.

i was also wandering why the taliban has any say. no wonder bin laden was able to live there all those years. how much us money are they getting that's sent over? that's bs

LOL, Eric.

SickofThieves, many here demonstrate a lack of respect for human life.

Orcatime, thank you for the info. Based on how the Pakistani govenment is, the Dr. that helped us is in deep SH--, because the USA officials are blabber mouths, this man; that HELPED US is screwed.I understand that we have so many avenues to info, however; what the military does should be on a need to know basis.

Make the ban permanent. These soon to be little terrorists just grown up to shoot people. Let them get polio and it keeps them off the battlefield. If the ban is lifted, tell them sorry, we just ran out of vaccine. Work for me!

I hope who ever leaked the information regarding the Dr. that helped us capture Bin Laden can sleep comfortably tonight knowing his purposeful leak of classified information is now being used to help justify endangering children.

Don't kid yourselves, if it wasn't that reason it would certainly be another.

True, the media is quick to tell info that should be classified do it doesn't have major consequences. The media announce everywhere the president is, especially if he makes a secret mission to visit hostile places like the Middle East. I guess people forget those old WWII propaganda posters: loose talk can cost lives or loose lips sinks ships.

That was just a drip, Obama is opening up the faucet full force and letting our secrets fly!

Oh, please. There's no proof Obama leaked anything. Just another hateful repub talking point.

Regardless of who leaked it, be it a democrat, republican or independent, whatever - the person is first and foremost a douchebag!

Freedom, what a thing to call our prez.

Looks like the Republicans are working for the Taliban and al-Qaeda.

Trying to spread hate and divide and Americans against each other.

@ freedom,

"double douchebag"

@fool2

"shut up"

fool2--Looks like the Republicans are working for the Taliban and al-Qaeda.

ooh you leaked that out

I don't know who leaked what but, I think the best thing Obama could have done was send the seals back in after that Dr.

It would have stopped all the "Obama leaked it himself" talk, it would have put these backwards sandeaters back in their place and most importantly it would save a man who put himself in great danger to help the interests of the US

Still we don't know who leaked the doctor's name. It's doubtful the President would have leaked the name himself, what would be his motivation?

All the Obama haters will continue to blame him for everything that happens.

If they thought anyone would believe it, the would blame him for @!$%# that happened before he was even born.

I think they are doing this to see what the US will do. If we continue the drone strikes they could claim that we would rather kill a few militants than save innocent children.

OMG! That's exactly the kind of twisted logic they use!

Logic and anything that concerns the taliban should not be used in the same sentence.

Russia is probably having a good laugh these days since it was our federal gov who put the tilaban in power in the first place, talking about logic.

Everybody needs to remember they are talking about a culture that doesn't hesitate to put rape victims to death instead of the rapist. What can any expect from a society that burns schools along with taking lives of teachers & little girls who seek basic education.

What do any of Changei's comments have to do with Communism?

Just goes to demonstrate the insanity of the Taliban's thinking.

They're Muslim. They'll crawl across the floor to kill an "infidel."

Rachel...you're being hateful...it's the radical Muslims that cause all of this...not every Muslim is out to kill us...just like not every priest molests boys and every cop is bad.

Stop doing what these @!$%#s live for....it's not helping.

You have "honest" confused with "hateful," blue.

It's a whole hell of a lot different, isitanidiot.

Christians don't slice off women's lips with a razor blade for wearing lipstick here and we also don't mutilate female children's genitals to keep them virgins till marriage. Yes there are some whacked out people that call themselves Christians but as a group we don't single out people to kill because of some idyllic belief.

Dang, Isitreal! What are you smoking over there?

Just because not everyone wants to fund a woman's sexual habits does not equate to what the Taliban are doing to innocent children. Good grief what a stretch.

Taliban and Christian fundamentalists do share one belief, they think everyone should assimilate to their beliefs.

Just because not everyone wants to fund a woman's sexual habits does not equate to what the Taliban are doing to innocent children. Good grief what a stretch.

Sounds like the Fox version of the contraception debate, if the Church wants to be in the healthcare business they need to cover what is the norm, or get out of that business.

Healthcare trumps religion

Absolutely isitreal! The American Taliban (GOP) is every bit as bloodthirsty and murderous toward our poor women than the Middle East version - probably even worse!!!

uh no, ChangeI, but you do reveal yourself as a nutcase Communist for even suggesting that though. Oh yah all those hundreds of womens' faces scalded with acid by evangelicals this year...

Darn we got off to such a great start on this thread, Dems and Reps unified. Then the far left trash had to come in and start attacking Christians?!!! over the Taliban derangement. Make sure these filth on that wing of their party never see a position in govt.

"lybasha"

It's not about "womens" sexual habits. Of course no one mentions "mens habits or lack there of". It's about Womens health and Womens rights.

"is it real " thank you!

isitreal = taliban information officer. Damn, i didn't know you animals knew how to type.

I have denounced the Republican war on birth control to the point of carpal tunnel syndrome, but it is still very different from denying children polio vaccine.

Change, you are delusional! Name me one woman in relative recent history that the GOP or Christians as a group have killed or spilled their blood. Just one. I'm pretty certain with the tap of a few keys I can pull up a list of Muslim women who have be killed or maimed for not adhering to the Muslim faith. Someone not condoning tax money to go toward paying for birth control or an abortion is not murdering someone. I personally think that women can make their own decisions. I may not agree with the choice all make but It is each ones own choice. Christians don't believe you should be killed for having an abortion. We may not like it but we aren't on stand by to go on a murdering spree to make someone pay for making that choice. Yes there have been people that have called themselves Christians that have murdered doctors for performing abortions but it is not condoned by Christians to do so. I for one will say the people who kill the Doctors for giving abortions should pay the consequences for their actions.

this thread has nothing to do with abortion or contraception or gender selective abortion or partial birth abortion or republicans or democrats or Christians or atheist etc or even the idiotic brainwashed far left and far right who just like to change form threads to political twisted and spun garbage.

Go to a political form where people like to read that stuff because I'm just as sick of reading it as most people here are.

Isitreal, I want some of what you're smokin'....

@Isitreal You have to be a Pakistan intelligence officer because your IQ is definitely less than 10

I have no idea why you should think I am left, I simply see the writing on the wall. Like people in 1934 figuring Europe would be at war by 1939. I had no idea my audience would be so sensitive an individual, I do apologise and are you not happy not to be a poor women in Kansas? Did I hit to close to home. The welfare of all Americans is a national security issue. At the beginning of WWII there were to many men/women that were not fit to fight in our military because of poverty. Thank your lucky stars for Roosevelt limiting the damage or we could now be speaking dutch. I am simply pointing out the similarities between our two cultures in a way ment to alert you and others to the danger we ourselves face should we allow two classes of health care and law to exist or in this case continue, one for the privileged and another for the less privileged or poor.

As for being left I could go on and on and on about my service to this nation but then you yourself I am sure have served as valiantly. We could spend days measuring, but then that would assume you can measure. Instead I will leave you with my favorite saying you may share with your bar stool patriots "Do not send the troops until you have run out of nukes". Once again I am sorry to have hurt your sensitive feelings.

"@Isitreal You have to be a Pakistan intelligence officer because your IQ is definitely less than 10" that could very well be true but then that was much more than our last President needed and well ahead of what is required for congress. I should think I am in good company with my IQ since you voted for the latter. Should I run for office I will of course expect your vote.

Exactly who is the Taliban??? @!$%# them, useless camel humping idiots.

itisreal, you are delusional, plain and simple.

You cannot even possibly begin to compare female genital mutilation, "sewing up" until marriage, not allowing women to get an education, not allowing women any rights, making them stay covered at all times, treating them as property, selling teenage daughters to old men, honor killings, selective sex abortions, and on and on and on, to the issues of abortion and contraception. That is absolutely crazy, then you suggest "intolerant lynchings" of those who don't agree with you, who is it that is sounding like the Taliban then?

Why are we friendly with Pakistan in the first place, and we give alot of money to them...for what Hiding Binladen, and other members of the group. Killing off of their next generation. I did'nt know that the taliban was the ruling government of that country eighter. Fly 24/7 and send them where they can see their god in person...If their faith is that strong they would like it. Is'nt that what they preach? Seems children are the new sheilds in warfare.....Syria, Pakistan. What cowards.

@ Itisreal...what the hell are you talking about? Totally untrue about U.S.A. women.Where the hell did you get that from? Fool. We actually love our women here, and yes there are a few that treat women badly. They suck too, and if I ever saw someone beating, or harming a women I'd put my foot up their ass. What a jackass if your truly believeing what you've written in your postings.

Are you an American? I think not. America must be better than wherever you came from...Your here, and can say what you want. Probably should have your dick cut off, and see how that feels..Prick

No use saying anything, John. They get on their political whining and it's over..

Richard that comes from tea party controlled states who spend their days taking away womens rights rather than actually trying to solve problems. However what that has to do with the topic on hand is beyond me.

The Taliban wants their children exposed to polio and unprotected, really not our problem. If Pakistan wouldn't be a safe haven for terrorists then we wouldn't have an issue with them, if you don't want to be killed by drones stop hanging around terrorists. I fail to see how this is our problem, if the Taliban thinks American's are really going to be swayed by this they are wrong.

With the money we save on vaccines we can buy more drones

Too funny.

"Habib, I'm not feeling too well. I better Google these symptoms"

They can't get on the internet. A drone will get them!

My cousin in Bakaravabagahsapurasunamana Province will look it up for me and send me the details via Pigeon Carrier.

I have sweats, aches and pains, vomiting, and some paralysis.

I have a fever and the blanket hurts my skin. I'm afraid I may have infantile paralysis, Mohammed. I didn't know adults could get polio, too! This isn't fair!

If I could move, I would destroy every American.

No one ever suggests they fight for women and children. They fight for ALLAH!!!!!

They fight like and for their stupid (non-existant ) allababa .

You think that's bad, you should see some of the crap Christian Americans pull in the name of their mythical skyfather.

But that would kill the children we are trying to help save. Where is your compassion?

Their children are going to grow up holding an AK-47. Good luck trying to change centuries of delusion.

So, to keep children from becoming terrorists themselves, we should watch currently innocent children suffer a painful and horrific death by polio. By the way, they won't all hold an AK-47... some of them are girls and they'll suffer all their lives. I'll never understand sitting back and watching children suffer and die and refusing to do anything about it. No child, even the child of a terrorist, deserves to suffer for any actions of the parents. It's not the fault of the children, ever.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. But I am saying its going to be difficult and take more then 10 years. Whatever it takes I suppose but we can't let them drag down the rest of the world with children living in it. Maybe the Taliban should adopt a "don't have any children" law.

Banaschar, your attitude is exactly the same as the Taliban's POV. What's the difference?

They sure did haha. Lets go get some USA hamburgers, fries and beers to celebrate!

USA hamburgers!?

Guess that would be Bubba Burgers. MMMM

I wonder if the virgins had to undergo an inspection with a Republican vaginal probe to prove their virginity?

Geez dls--WTH did THAT come from?

I believe Virginia.

dls-Apparently you didn't get the memo-The 72 Virgins.......................................turns out, they are men!! But I believe they were probed first, to prove their virginity.

We're holding our own kids hostage.

Brilliant.

He's only referring to the males, of course. They'll continue to use the little girls to clear mine fields.

Give me a break. A better question would be, "What would Mitt the Political Chameleon do in the same situation," but of course, since he'll never get that chance, it's all academic, anyway.
