KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Afghan security forces killed a senior Taliban () commander and two of his comrades in a raid in southern Afghanistan, an official said Sunday.
Maulvi Abdul Ghaffar, reportedly a former inmate at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay (), Cuba, died in a gunbattle Saturday night in Pishi, a village in the southern province of Uruzgan, said Jan Mohammed Khan (search), governor of Uruzgan.

sshhh!
If the info is spread, then the guys we release will simply be shot by the Taliban upon return. Either way, its a win-win. Its like when Mob figures were nailed and later released with charges dropped. Once out on the street, the inference to the bosses was that the guy rolled over and cut a deal. He was immediately smimmin' with the fishes with a pair of concrete shoes.
GPS implants eh?
I suppose so. There could be psychological advantages to causing the terrorist leaders to question the loyalty of their followers. Now you've got me questioning my own reasoning.
As a young boy, I have fond memories living in GTMO, Cuba (1976-1979). The one that stands out the most was my participation in the USMC Devil Pups program. It was a very Spartan and 'uncontaminated by Liberals' Summer program meant to 'toughen' up young boys 9-12. Though I would not go on and become a Marine as an adult, my heart and thanks lie with the Marines and Armed Forces who have arranged Ghaffar's meeting with Allah.
Is someone monitoring mainstream to see if they report this story? Maybe Dan the Man?
i smell GPS inplant on former POW....that would sure be a great idea! But don't let lawyers edwards and kerry find out they along with ACLU will be calling it a civil rights violation.
The next one: Mullah Mohammed Omar.
They are bowing to political pressure and letting those jerks out early. One thing for sure, we sure won't have to feed him ever.
Khan said that after release, Ghaffar was appointed as the leader of Taliban fighters in Uruzgan, a rugged region believed to be a stronghold of the hardline Islamic militia.
Another one of those innocents who was released after being detained without cause in Gitmo that NPR keeps talking about?
"gitmo" Home of the implanted tracking device. Makes it easy to whack the rabbit if it gets back into the briar patch!
