THE BRITISH TALIBAN.



Eursoc picks up on a story ignored by our TV media that claims "four of the five British prisoners recently released from Guantanamo Bay had been trained in guerilla combat by the Taliban and al-Qaeda terrorists."



I remember when these guys were released we were treated a media-induced welcome that gave the impression they were heroes.



Eursoc notes that " Few have questioned their stories of what they were doing in Taliban and al-Qaeda dominated Afghanistan in the first place."



My theory was they may have been confused eco-tourists.
