October 2005After soldiers of a US 173rd Airborne company burn the bodies of two Taliban killed near the Pakistan border, members of the army's psychological warfare unit then broadcast an inflammatory message designed to taunt and bait theenemy.US soldiers in Afghanistan have taken the tactics of psychological warfare to a grotesque extreme. After soldiers of a US 173rd Airborne company burn the bodies of two Taliban killed near the Pakistan border in a desecration of Muslim burial rituals, members of the army's psychological warfare unit then broadcast an inflammatory message designed to taunt and bait the enemy. A translation offered on camera by Sergeant Jim Baker of "PsyOps" reads: "Attention Taliban. You are all cowardly dogs. You allowed your fighters to be burned. This just proves you are the ladyboys we always believed youto be." In recent months, the Taliban have launched more attacks that at any time since the invasion. Faced with such a resurgence, the Americans are resorting to psychological warfare to demoralise the enemy. Armored vehicles loaded with loudspeakers blast loud, offensive music into the valleys. But such tactics may also heighten the perception of local people that the Americans are as barbarous as the Taliban.
quite frankly, blurting out loud nonsense heavy metal music as "propaganda and psy warfare" is one STUPID tactic.
this isnt a clash between marilyn manson and metallica fans !!!!
to the taliban and other afghans its just some obnoxious loud music that will make them KILL redneck soldiers just to stop the loud gibberish being played on some white corn-hole's jeep.

Disguisting stank ass Taliban sure can beat and opress defenseless women or attack school girls with squirt bottles full of acid but they run like chicken shit's from the Americans. Pussies can only defeat unsuspecting, unarmed civilians. Why don't you jihadi's go find a little blind girl to gang rape then stone her to death for fornication. Or maybe marry an eight year old and rape and beat her. THAT IS ISLAM PEOPLE!!!

Isn't Germany closer to Afghanistan than the US?

I agree. If it kills you no big deal.
nukeiran1980(November 20, 2008 at 8:48 pm)
seems like a small price to pay.

If you "nuke these animals" fallout will rain on your head 3 weeks later, you like that ?

It would be so much easier just to nuke these animals. They have no souls.
