Canadian/Afghany forces 400. Taliban 2.

I am sure that the nutbars will find a way to make this great Taliban victory…….

Personally, I thought it an utterly ingenious way to save on trials.

NATO cancels “Prison Break — Afghanistan” after one episode.

Every prisoner escapes from one of their largest prisons and you call it a “minor episode.” I am glad NATO got control, but minimizing the prison break strikes me.

No prisoners. No mercy. That should keep the guys out of court. It’s also the right way to fight, TO WIN. Period.

It is getting crowded at Gitmo. Double Tap and leave them where they fall. The simple solution and very cost effective. Bullets are cheaper than the SCOTUS solution and Geneva Convention Approved. Spies and Saboteurs.

All Prisoners At GITMO Escape in Daring Break!

All but three terrorist prisoners are killed while resisting recapture or from many mishaps, drownings, sharks, etc.

Three survivors returned to Egypt.

But the plane crashes in the Egyptian desert and all three jihadists are killed.

(But, luckily the crew will bail out to safety.)

I hope we are putting microchips in these suckers like we do with our pets. Herding these cats would be so much easier.

CLOSE GITMO!

REOPEN ALCATRAZ!

Excellent Tony…….It would be so appropriate to put all those “prisoners with rights” in Pelosi’s ~~back~~ front yard.

Perhaps a Guantanamo prison break is in order.

From what I understand of the waters surrounding that part of Cuba, they could be ‘sharked’ while trying to escape.

If they were kept in jail, they might have been filing habeus corpus petitions, eventually. Now they have gotten the old “shot while trying to escape” treatment.

“Didn’t HotAir report that it was 1000, not 400, that escaped?

jgapinoy on June 19, 2008 at 8:46 AM”

Yep. It’s all part of the Bush/McCain smear.

Thanks Ed, for setting them straight.

The Taliban should sue Murtha for giving them false hope.

Asadullah Khaled, the governor of Kandahar, reported that the ISAF had killed “hundreds” of Taliban. At least 34 militants were killed and another 60 wounded in the early stages of the assault, Afghan police said. Who to believe? I wanna believe the Governor, but the police number is probably more accurate. Hope I'm wrong.

As soon as the Taliban met the military, they crumbled.

Ahh!!! Just what bin Laden wanted.
