KANDAHAR, Afghanistan, June 22 (Reuters) - Afghan soldiers beheaded four Taliban fighters after guerrillas cut off the heads of an Afghan interpreter for U.S.-led forces and an Afghan soldier, a government commander said on Tuesday. The interpreter and the soldier were beheaded after becoming separated from a patrol of Afghan and U.S.-led foreign troops in the Arghandab district of Zabul province on Monday night, Namatullah Tokhi, commander of the government's 27th division in the province, told Reuters.
He said government troops later captured and killed four Taliban guerrillas in the same way. "They cut of their heads with a knife, so when our forces arrested four Taliban, we cut off their heads too."

Finally, a head for a head. I'll bet those talis were head cases for sure.

This is all Bush's, Cheney's and Ashworth's fault.
So all this time we could've been blaming this "Ashworth" guy?

The Brits were not employing the services of their Allies,"The Gurkhas"!
The Gurkhas are NOT British allies, they are mercenaries working for the British (and Indian) armies.

While I would not object to that punishment had the towelheads been given a fair trial
And the two "towelheads" were beheaded by othe "towelheads". And while you're at it calling names, I suppose you'd call the GReeks, the Turks, the Indians, every nationality who may wear turbans as "towelheads"? And you'd also call Sikhs who live in the US, "towelheads"?

Yes, I have thought this through. The Geneva Conventions allow any signatory to them to suspend them if their opponent refuses to honor them. That is exactly what we should do -- play by their "rules". I would talke about six to eight weeks to smoke these towelheads.

For Cronos: Go wash your towels or are they sheets? Or do you prefer to be called a sheethead?

For Mike: Don't you wash your towels? And I ain't Arab.
However, silly comments like yours insult our anti-Isllamic allies who wear turbans. We're in a war with a cult not an ethnicity
