But, but, but ... I thought Obama’s “Kum-Bay-Ya Plan” to sit down and talk to these people was the way to go?

“A BBC news girl attacked TV yesterday for failing to show viewers the Taliban’s “humanity”.”

People like that need to be interned, imprisoned, or killed. Nations can't survive if they don't take action (or allow private citizens to take action) against their internal enemies.

Can the Baghdad Broadcasting company (BBC) go any lower? Or is this the filth floating to the top?

And to think 50 years ago BBC was a Reverend radio station.

She sounds like your typical liberal. Our enemies, no matter how reprehensible, are human. We, ourselves, are the ones who are inhuman. If you have this mindset, the need to show the “human” side of the Taliban is obvious.

This sounds like some great groundwork for a Monty Python script.
