Heartache: E-hadis Love Affair with Taliban Over
UPDATE: I'll admit it, this comment by Bishop sums it up much better than I did, "This is like shit telling vomit it stinks. --Triumph"
Indeed.
Ironic moral outrage of the day, especially given that the cyber jihadis leaving these comments at the Eklaas forum are most likely doing so from their mommy's house in Cairo or from a comfortable internet cafe in London.
I'm betting Taliban webmaster Adil Watanmal and especially Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Mohammed, who's being telling people lately that he's also an al Qaeda propagandist who uses public internet cafes in Kabul, are going to have a time fending off these criticisms.
Al Qaeda supporters on the Web have unleashed an unprecedented flood of criticism of Afghanistan's Taliban, once seen by extremists as the model of an Islamic state.How dare the Taliban compromise with the Iranians! Hey mom, I'm still waiting for that meatloaf!!Now extremists accuse the Taliban of straying from the path of global jihad after its leader Mullah Omar issued a statement saying he seeks good relations with the world and even sympathizes with Shiite Iran....
"This is the worst statement I have ever read ... the disaster of defending the (Iranian) regime is on par with the Crusaders in Afghanistan and Iraq," wrote poster Miskeen, whose name translates literally as "the wretched" and who is labeled as one of the more influential writers on an Al Qaeda linked Web site....
Sheiks Osama (bin Laden) and (Ayman) al-Zawahri should censure Taliban for these statements," said another poster, by the name al-Zarqawiya, an allusion to Al Qaeda leaders.
