Ten Killed including Taliban Commander in Khost
2011-01-23
[Tolo News] At least ten snuffies including a Taliban capo were killed in Afghan and Coalition forces' offensive in eastern Khost province Friday night, officials said.
It's winter. They show up on infrared, poor things. On the other hand, it would probably be worse for them if they didn't at least start out radiating...
The joint operation was conducted by Afghan and Coalition forces on Friday night in Sabari and Yaqubi districts of Khost during which ten bully boyz including a Taliban capo were killed in the operation, Isaf Media office told TOLOnews news hound on Saturday.

Isaf said one child was killed, and two women and a child were maimed in festivities between snuffies and Afghan and Coalition forces.
Civilian shields or the capo's family?
Taliban have yet to comment about the operation.
"Mahmudullah, answer the phone, dammit! Maulana, he's not answering his cell phone -- do you think something might have gone wrong?"
Sabari, Yaqubi, Bak and Alisher are among the insecure districts where snuffies carry out their activities.

Khost province is bordered by Pakistain and snuffies have previously attacked on foreign bases and Afghan police check posts in the province.
That's generally how they get themselves killed. How many of those who volunteer to replace them are actually spies, calling in UAV targets?
