We have an interesting story of the death of Mullah Omar, the supposed spiritual leader of the Taliban, but it happened -according to the BBC- in 2013. Officials in Afghanistan announced it this week. By now, it is old news.
His death occured in Pakistan, despite Pakistan's denial that he had been there. If this sounds familiar, the death of Osama bin Laden occured in a similar place with the same kind of denials. No wonder we didn't tell Pakistan that we noticed he was there. There are more heros of he revolution in Pakistan, we just don't know how many and where they are.
This State Department Friend of ours has managed to hide terrorists of several kinds, but most certainly the Taliban who regularly killed U.S. soldiers, allied combat troops, girls going to school, people in markets shopping, and anyone who says they support the government in Afghanistan. This is the same country that gave nuclear technology to half a dozen other countries, and started the ball rolling on Iran's nuclear weapons. With friends like this, we certainly don't need more enemies.
