20 reporters enter Taliban-controlled Afghanistan TOWR KHAM,

Oct. 14 Kyodo - Some 20 foreign journalists, including one from Kyodo News, on Saturday entered the Afghan side of Towr Kham, a town on the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan, for the first time since the U.S.-led air strikes started last Sunday.

After Afghanistan's ruling Taliban issued visas to the group, which includes CNN staff, the reporters entered the Afghan side of the town through Peshawar, Pakistan, at night, when a bus they and two Taliban officials were riding in crossed the border. The Taliban, which have imposed strict restrictions on foreign media coverage in the country and have deported foreign residents, have apparently eased their stance. .....

Just saw a report from CNN from Jalalabad (sp?).

Seemed OK, particularly with the CNN reporter saying that they are not being allowed to go anywhere except where the Taliban wants them to go and they are accompanied very closely by a Taliban official!

Just saw a short report from a CNN reporter headed into Afghanastan.

The Taliban says...civilians killed

The Taliban says... children killed

The taliban says...the U.S must stop the bombing.

Typical CNN.

Oh boy, Can't wait to see all the propaganda footage on CNN{Constant Nonsense Network} showing the poor children being killed. They still haven't shown us any pictures of the people that were killed at the WTC, and Pentagon. "Breaking news, The US has just bomed another Mosque in Afganistan, with hundreds of casulties" "Mostly women and children" We are now live with CNN in Afganistan. No need to say more!

The Taliban says...civilians killed

Dumba__ CNN reporters should tell the Taliban to go trade places with the civilians.

Gee I wonder .. does CNN own any Chevy's ????

It pays to be careful. Accidents can happen real easy, especially to idiots that wander into a war zone without fully considering what can happen to parties that try to undermine a war effort.

I guess we are about to bomb Baby Milk Factories.

CNN gets very slanted after midnight when their international edition takes over. But I bet they are also slanting more OBL purely as an appeasement defensive measure.

Quickest solution is if CNN gets in the way or reveals too much, bomb them. I'm not kidding, and I think Bush has the guts to do it. Purely strategy. And it WILL happen if we have any US deaths as a result of their reporting.

[StayoutdaBushesWay]

You beat ne to it.

[Issaquahking]

Remember - Bush said either your with us or against us. Seems to me if these dumb asses die in their efforts to get the 'story', tough sh**. The world will be a better palce minus a few CNNer's.

chemicalman - here we go again with all of the Lefto Pinky Commie Grap the CNN (Commie National Network) Pukes are starting to rattle out in putting the Negative spin on everything we accomplish in eliminating the Slim Balls, but like I said in Post # 19 just drop a few Cluster Bombs on their Butts in closing their Loose Lips!!!!!

[rockfish59]

'smart bomb' for peter arnett!!!

Nabobs

[Wondervixen]

What do you want to bet the Taliban tries to hold the CNN crew hostage to stop the bombing?

The joke's on THEM, we dont WANT em!...Now, if they threaten to send them home...

[R_Kangel]

Gee! This will be a first. CNN reporter as hostage. I hope they keep the cameraman! Ours are much better than those Super 8, Hi-8 GEEKS!!!

[Hillary 666]

Quickest solution is if CNN gets in the way or reveals too much, bomb them. I'm not kidding, and I think Bush has the guts to do it.

They're either with us or against us, and CNN's past history kind of narrows it down, eh?

CNN has demonstrated their ability to outright lie to us (their "objective investigative report" on Operation Tailwind). I have no sympathy for dirtbag yellow "journalists".

[cactusSharp]

if one looks closer that this...we are in a win /win here. Surely CNN is the devil's handmaid in a one world Greta Van Sistern kinda way. Now imagine,no better yet,remember that snake and frog story ? The snake lies,the frog trusts the snake and the snake eats the frog saying,but I'm a snake. Well we win by being able to expose the blantant bias ON FILM during and after ,just like Clinton at Ron Brown's funeral ,which is eureka, on tape.....That is win number ONE.... The other ,and too much to hope for, is the snake's quote,But "I'm a snake"....That would be CNN either messing messing up or "just being CNN" and getting themselves skinned alive...literally. If that happened,again to much to hope for,liberalism would die faster that disdain there was for fireman and police officers september 10,2001.

[Don Joe]

They entered, just like that?

What a tragic waste of a valuable resource.

We should have offered to trade them for the American hostages.

[cactusSharp]

and since I'm on a roll....notice CNN's tact, liberal puke stuff with a bimbo from "over there" therefore a no name unattackable. And what did the bimbo just say.....alleged 200 casualties "in the rubble with only pieces parts" in some cases.....then the live correspondent says....But 200 would be 1/2 the towns population lending doubts to the real truths.And what does the no name non attackable bimbo say ? " the those horrible pictures (with purched emotion) (maybe Harry Thomasas likes that) but NO CONFIRMED......A this is the CNN that 911 prior wanted to meet the republicans to prove they were not biased......

[P-Marlowe]

If they do anything that represents a threat to our troops, then Bush should just order their satellite connection to be shut off. He should also go on the air and suggest that the American People get their news elsewhere. With a 92% approval rating he could really use his bully pulpit to drive these people into the sewer from whence they came.

[GVnana]

So how come the Taliban is so cozy with CNN?

[factmart]

Traitors, pure simple.
