Summary
On Sunday the Taliban kidnapped and killed around 30 to 40 bus passengers. They were said to be civilians. Then the Taliban spokes person said they had killed around 27 Afghan soldiers. Who is to believe? It all happened last Thursday in Mai wand district of southern Kandahar Province. This area is very dangerous and heavily controlled by the Taliban. The Taliban spokes man said that the 27 soldiers were traveling by bus but the Afghan general said that no soldiers travel by bus they always fly.
Opinion
This is a serious problem that the U.S. has been trying to help with. The Taliban controls most of Afghanistan and if we pull out things will only get worse and we could be looking at another terrorist attack. The Taliban lied about killing the civilians. This terrorist group needs to be controlled and dealt with before it gets out of hand or else innocent people will be continued to be killed. It is very important that we show our support to the Afghan general and their soldiers as they are trying to establish their own democracy.
