    Maybe it was just a misunderstanding.

    "Off their heads? I thought you said off with their heads. Off their heads, I never heard that one before, it's a bit weird dude. There's obviously a lot of room for confusion it doesn't really make sense like."

    Yeah I was thinking that, people getting their panties in a twist about jokes in the neil armstrong thread but it's grand to joke about 17 people who were murdered?

    It's f*cking sick.

    I give out about my circumstances at the moment sometimes, but I am glad I live here and not there. Jesus, I'd never sleep a wink in a place like that. Horrific.

    It would be a sever package rather than a severance package over there

    I don't know how you can make that assumption. That area is a tribal land and tribes go to war with each other all the time over sometimes trivial things. Some people actually like the Taliban as they bring some sort of order to that chaos and these people don't know any better.

    I'm sure someone told the Taliban what was going on and that there's probably a majority of people in the area that are only delighted to hear the infidels were dealt with.

    I think that's gotta be the worse part.
    I get that for Muslims sex outside of marriage isn't exactly accepted but wouldn't be like me saying "hey, ScumLord ran a red light, better inform the locals so they can kill him"?

    You know, its terribly hypocritical of somebody who practices bigotry to pop up and give out about others lack in the tolerance department.

    17 people killed and 4 pages of people making puns and jokes.

    everyone who joked about this is a fucking horrible human being.

    some people care more about grammar than human life.

    The Taliban should be annihilated or they'll be spreading their brand of sh1t far and wide across the planet.

    They're a bunch of primitive hypocrites, only interested in wealth, power and ruling by fear.

    Some conflicting reports coming out about this now:
    Taliban kill 17 civilians 'in argument over women'

    One of the reasons given for the Taliban slaughter of 17 partygoers was a quarrel over women. Afghan women are among the most repressed in the world. Photograph: Paula Bronstein/Getty Images

    The Taliban have killed 17 civilians – reportedly by cutting their throats – in a remote and violent corner of Afghanistan's Helmand province that government officials admitted is entirely beyond their control.

    The reason for the slaughter was variously given as a fight between two Taliban commanders over women, Taliban anger over a music and dance party, or an insurgent crackdown on suspected government informers.

    The group, which included two women, were killed early on Sunday afternoon but news of their deaths only reached government-held areas on Monday.

    "This happened in a desert area, known as Roshanabad, which is not under the control of the government," said the Kajaki district governor, Mullah Sharafuddin, who said he did not know the motive behind the bloody attack. "I am the governor but I don't have full details because this land is under Taliban control."

    The Helmand police commander was told the 17 victims were targeted as government spies, said spokesman Farid Ahmad Farhang, who also acknowledged the area was in insurgent hands.

    The provincial governor's spokesman said the dead were probably caught up in a fight between two rival Taliban commanders for control of the dead women.

    Interesting article, gives some information on other attacks that were mis-reported the motive at first. So the motive is varying between, killing spies, a party with loud music and mixing between both sexes, and 2 rival Taliban commanders fight over Women.

    So that is quite a bit of variation over what may have happened in this one attack, and shows that it does sometimes take a while for people to know what exactly went on and the motive etc.

    That's not really what he did though, is it?

    He's using the actions of these "yahoos" as you called them to criticise their religion. He said "Islam - Religion of peace", not "Muslims - Peaceful people".
