Taliban Say Could Free Christians if U.S. Eases
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - The ruling Taliban could free eight aid workers held on charges of spreading Christianity if the United States halts its threats against Afghanistan (news - web sites), the Afghan Islamic Press said quoting a Foreign Ministry statement.

``If the United States mitigates the sufferings of the common people of Afghanistan and gives up its dire threats, then the Afghan government will also take steps to release the eight detained foreigners,'' AIP quoted a Foreign Ministry statement as saying.

A Foreign Ministry official, reached by telephone in the southern Taliban headquarters of Kandahar, told Reuters that such a solution was possible.

The aid workers, all with the German-based Shelter Now International (SNI) relief agency, were arrested in early August on charges of spreading Christianity, accusations that they have denied.


I am thinking that has to be the wrong place to be at worst time in almost anyones life! Being a politcal pond sucks ass!

But if they expect us to trade 5,000 deathes for 8 people stranded in a country sad to say this but they are probably SOL till we invade.

Yea... and being a pawn would suck also.
