Taliban Releases Hostages After Dadullah's Body Returned

The Taliban released 4 Afghan medical workers kidnapped in March after President Hamid Karzai bowed to their demands to hand over the body of Mullah Dadullah, killed last month in an American airstrike. Karzai's decision came too late however for Dr. Abdul Khalil, who was beheaded yesterday.

Via Yahoo News India:

Four kidnapped Afghan health workers were released by the Taliban early Thursday morning after the body of its killed top commander Mullah Dadullah was retrieved, a caller who claimed to be a Taliban spokesman said.

The authorities sent the body to Dadullah's family at midnight Wednesday, Shahabudin Atal told over the phone from an undisclosed place.

Taliban militants set free the four health workers shortly afterwards, he added.

The spokesman did not say where the four hostages were released; he said the hostages would return to their homes 'in good health.'

He said the body of beheaded doctor Abdul Khalil was in Kajaki district of the southern Helmand province and his family could retrieve it there.

1 Great news. The four hostages have returned to their families. The Taliban simply wanted a body.

Great news. Paris Hilton has been released. Money talks and bullshit walks. Just the way it is. I do believe she will have to do the rest of her time in her mansion. Perhaps with use of her pool for 3 weeks. That will teach her.


 


 


 


 


Great news on the hostage release. Why the hell were we keeping a body? Sounds goulish.

3 Any chance there is some kind of tracking device in the corpse and it will be the focal point in an upcoming fireworks show?

4 Another thought. Did the Taliban win this one? Will this lead to more kidnappings and beheadings to innocent health workers? Fraid so! Fanatics will use anymeans that works. Right, wrong or humanity has nothing to do with a fanatical muslims thought process. OUTLAW ISLAM! Behead a health care doctor to obtain a dead body. SICK! SICK I say. I hope they stuffed the boby with pork chops and pig shit.

Karzai already fucked up by releasing those five Taliban leaders in exchange for Daniele so releasing a body isn't going to make a difference in regard to more kidnappings. Two of the five leaders were killed with Dadullah and a third one (Dadullah's brother) is now the top Taliban commander.


And don't remind me about Paris Hilton. She was cold in her cell and crying and also didn't like the food so she had her family talk to their connections and she ended up being released for house arrest.

7 I wouldn't mind so much if they returned the body with 25lbs of C4 set to a timer shoved up his butt.

8 Paris is a genius. Nice ass too. Only reason she got time was because of the crybaby wannbes. 99.9% of the girls out there wish they was her. Had her looks, her money, her body, her connections, her house, her cars. Everything. Her grand daddy worked hard to give her what she has.
