Taliban Vow to Start Stoning Women to Death in Afghanistan
Everyone Wanted to See That Taliban Guy Dead: Colleagues of Marine A Said They'd Have killed Him too > Because Saving Him Would Have Risked British Lives
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/...9707945715.jpg Comrades of Sergeant Alexander Blackman (pictured) said yesterday he shot a wounded Taliban fighter to protect junior colleagues Comrades of Sergeant Alexander Blackman spoke out after the Appeal Court cleared him of murder and downgraded his conviction to manslaughter. The former Marines said he 'took responsibility' for killing the insurgent whom 'everybody wanted dead' because saving him would have risked British lives. One even claimed HQ implied to Sgt Blackman on his radio that he should kill the man, and a former commander admitted it was not the only time such action had been carried out in the war. The commando, referred to as Marine A at his court martial, had his murder conviction downgraded to manslaughter because he had combat stress and could walk free within days. The Appeal Court said yesterday a sentencing hearing would be heard next Friday. This could lead to his immediate release because he has already served three and a half years. Five judges ruled that he was not in his right mind when he shot the insurgent on September 15, 2011. The court heard how he felt an immense responsibility to keep the 15 men under his command safe, even taking on exhausting extra patrols himself to do so. http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/...9619063088.jpg The former Marines said he 'took responsibility' for killing the insurgent whom 'everybody wanted dead' because saving him would have risked British lives. He had his murder conviction downgraded to manslaughter this week.

Sam Deen, one of the Marines on the fateful patrol, said they had all wanted to shoot him Following the verdict on Wednesday, Sgt Blackman's former colleagues told BBC Panorama they were glad he shot the fanatic. Many feared the insurgent had been deliberately sacrificed by the Taliban as 'human bait' to lure the Britons into a trap. Sam Deen, one of the Marines on the fateful patrol, said they had all wanted to shoot him. He suggested Sgt Blackman decided to do it himself to protect junior comrades, adding: 'I said I'd put one in his head. [A] few of the other lads said that as well. 'I think [Blackman] took the responsibility for the younger lads. He didn't do it in cold blood – he did it so we could draw a line in the sand.' Sergeant Rob Driscoll, who was leading a patrol nearby, overheard the radio conversation between Sgt Blackman and HQ about what to do with the injured Taliban. http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/...9708251208.jpg http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/...9708246624.jpg Louis Nethercott, a machine gunner with Sgt Blackman, said: 'It was bloody tough. There is a point at which he has had too much or seen too much or is too tired or too stressed' http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/...9708230542.jpg Sam Deen (pictured) suggested Sgt Blackman decided to shoot the Taliban insurgent himself to protect junior comrades, adding: 'I said I'd put one in his head. [A] few of the other lads said that as well.' He said no one wanted to risk sending a multi-million-pound air ambulance and crew, or vehicles along a road littered with bombs, to rescue the man. He claimed he heard 'implied tasking' – an unspoken suggestion that the insurgent 'needed to pass away somehow'. Sgt Driscoll added: 'Everyone wanted that guy to be dead.' Speaking later to Radio 4's Today, he said: 'There was implied tasking. Everyone on that radio was sending out a signal to Al, 'Make it so it doesn't happen'.' http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/...9707902603.jpg The commando, referred to as Marine A at his court martial, was not in his right mind when he shot the insurgent on September 15, 2011 Sgt Driscoll told Panorama: 'I'm glad Al did what he did, because all my guys went home. Maybe if he hadn't done that, I'd have been going to a few more funerals.' Louis Nethercott, a machine gunner with Sgt Blackman, said: 'It was bloody tough. There is a point at which he has had too much or seen too much or is too tired or too stressed. None of us got hurt, so it was a successful day.' Major Steve McCulley, commander of Sgt Blackman's J-Company, was asked by filmmaker Chris Terrill, who was with the unit: 'Would you think what happened was the only time that happened in the Afghan War?' Major McCulley replied: 'No.'

NB: Sgt Blackman was convicted under the Geneva Convention rules. which were made many years ago and are so OUT OF DATE these days. WAR is different, especially dealing with these MAD fanatical terrorists... Sgt Blackman conviction should be over-turned and his record in the Marines must be cleared to remove this crazy charge. He and many like him are incredibly BRAVE HEROS. It is so wrong he can never return to the Marines and will always have a CRIMINAL RECORD!!.... :arrrrrgh: The video on this with the whole story, can be downloaded here: Panorama 2017 03 07 Marine A-The Inside Story 720p HDTV x264-DEADPOOL . |
Taliban Killed UK Soldier >Family Wore Kilts @ Funeral.>His Best Friend Wore A Dress
This Man Wore A Dress To His Best Friend's Funeral.The Truth About Why Will Break You Down In Tears!
Three years ago, two best friends made a pact — a very strange pact to many outsiders, but to them it made perfect sense. British soldier Kevin Elliot left for war in Afghanistan, his best friend Barry Delaney agreed that if Elliot was killed during war, Barry would wear a bright, tacky woman’s dress to the funeral. BBC, 3 Aug 2019 Of course, much of the pact was just a joke — but when tragedy struck, Barry knew what he had to do. Private Elliott died in a Taliban ambush in Afghanistan. Barry Delainey, the best friend of Private Kevin Elliott, who died in Afghanistan, wore a yellow dress to his funeral keeping a promise between the pair... https://secure.i.telegraph.co.uk/mul...y_1482432c.jpg Private Elliott of the Black Watch was killed by insurgents while on foot patrol in the Babaji District of Helmand Province on 31 August . The 24-year-old from Dundee Scotland, had been first to volunteer to protect his colleagues when they came under attack in the area. Around 400 mourners turned out for his funeral in St Mary's Church including Mr Delainey who wore a bright lime green dress and pink knee length socks. The two friends had promised each other they would wear a dress at the funeral of whoever died first. Private Elliott's father Sandy Elliott, told the funeral that he was "proud" of his son. "Kevin was a grandson, a brother, a nephew, an uncle and a cousin, but more than anything he was our son," he said. |

Ian Purchase, Was Held Hostage in Solitary Confinement by The Taliban For Five Months Has Told How The Mental Battle Was Hardest to Deal With in His Cell BBC 6 NOV 2023 https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin..._ARREST_33.jpg https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin..._ARREST_27.jpg Ian pictured as a paratrooper Ex-paratrooper Ian Purchase, 50, was arrested in Afghanistan's capital Kabul in May on suspicion of breaking local laws. He says he was then chucked in solitary confinement until his release in October, where he was "beaten and whipped". *But Ian says the mental anguish was tougher - not knowing what the next hour, let alone day, would hold. He desperately clung to a routine to preserve his mental health and prayed to God. *He constantly paced his 18ft by 14ft cell, often walking up to 28,000 steps in a day - the equivalent of 12 miles. https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin..._ARREST_02.jpg The dad-of-two, who served in 3 Para from 1995 to 2001, is now safely back home and is coming to terms with what happened to him. https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomin..._ARREST_35.jpg *Ian said: “I was kept in solitary. I was beaten and whipped in the first five days of being there. But the worst of the pain is the mental side - not knowing why you’re there or if you’ll ever get out. It was hard to tell day from night. I’m agnostic but part of my routine was desperate heartfelt praying. I wrote the names of my children, my mum and ex wife on the wall. |
Re: Taliban Vow to Start Stoning Women to Death in Afghanistan
Taliban Vow to Start Stoning Women to Death in Public For Adultery in Afghanistan
Supreme leader BLASTS the Wests' support for womens' rights MailOnline 28 MAR 2024 https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/03...1447395617.jpg https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/03...1447375729.jpg https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/03...1447389905.jpg https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/03...1447812007.jpg Horrifying footage of screaming Afghan woman cowering as she is stoned to death by Taliban The Taliban will soon start stoning women to death in public, the radical group's Supreme Leader announced as he declared war against Western democracy. Addressing Western officials in a voice message broadcast on state TV Saturday, Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada called the Western human rights defenders 'representatives of the devil'. 'You say it's a violation of women's rights when we stone them to death. But we will soon implement the punishment for adultery,' he told the West in his harshest comments since taking over Afghanistan in 2021. 'We will flog women in public. We will stone them to death in public,' he announced. 'These are all against your democracy but we will continue doing it. 'We both say we defend human rights – we do it as God's representative and you as the devil's,' he added. You are treating women like animals, are these your rights?' Afghanistan's state TV, now controlled by the Taliban, airs voice messages claiming to be from Akhundzada, who has never been seen in public. In a further affront to international advocacy for women's rights, Akhundzada criticised the calls for such rights as contradictory to the Taliban's interpretation of Islamic Sharia law. 'Do women want the rights that Westerners are talking about? 'They are against Sharia and clerics' opinions, the clerics who toppled Western democracy,' he asserted. 'One is God's league and another one is the devil's and we are on God's side,' he claimed. The Taliban, despite initial promises of a more moderate rule, began carrying out severe punishments in public shortly after coming to power. The punishments are similar to those during their previous rule of Afghanistan in the late 1990s. Akhundzada has called the Taliban foot soldiers to be resilient in opposing women's rights and said the war against Western democracy and values will continue for decades to come. 'I told the Mujahedin that we tell the Westerners that we fought against you for 20 years and we will fight 20 and even more years against you' he said. 'Taking over Kabul did not mean we would now sit in offices and drink tea. 'It did not finish (when you left), we will now bring Sharia into action on this land,' he warned. Footage allegedly from 2015 shows the Taliban stoning a women to death, six years before their return to power in Afghanistan Akhundzada has called the Taliban foot soldiers to be resilient in opposing women's rights and said the war against Western democracy and values will continue for decades to come Akhundzada has called the Taliban foot soldiers to be resilient in opposing women's rights and said the war against Western democracy and values will continue for decades to come He criticised Western human rights values and women's freedoms, saying Taliban religious scholars and clerics would persistently resist the West and its form of democracy in Afghanistan. His comments have sparked outrage among Afghans, prompting some to urge the international community to escalate pressure on the Taliban. Naseer Faiq, Charge d'Affaires of Afghanistan to the United Nations, said that deciding the fate of the Afghans without their consent 'is not acceptable'. 'At what cost? For over two decades, under this slogan, thousands of innocent Afghans, including brainwashed Taliban, have been killed, the country destroyed, millions forced to migrate, and Afghanistan plunged into a deep crisis,' he said in a post on X, referring to Akhundzada's comments 'Isn't that enough? Profiting from the Afghan people's blood is unacceptable and forbidden in Islam,' he added. The Taliban regained power in August 2021, following the collapse of the internationally supported government and the withdrawal of all US-led Western troops after nearly 20 years of involvement in the Afghan war.
