More on the Taliban
This thought-provoking and heart-breaking article on two doctors recently killed by the Taliban also explains the Taliban's expansion of its limits on who to kill. It made me sick.
I know there are people here who think it is wrong for us to expend American lives if Afghanistan. Believe it or not, I don't want our people to die needlessly any more than you do. I want our soldiers to come home in one piece, and I want them to get the benefits they are owed for their service to our country.

Actually, I think that the Taliban's militia are not at fault, they just were lead to believe this junk. Maybe they joined up because they had nowhere to go, no money, no land, etc. And as for all the Taliban, they just don't understand. They're not pure evil (like some people said in comments on your blog), no one is, they're just doing what they think is right. Don't mistake me for one of them, though, I do abhor them.

I agree with Emma. They're doing what they think is right, or what they're told is right, and being paid the money people desperately need to survive.
