Afghanistan will dump remaining Pak prisoners
2003-03-16
Afghanistan will hand over all remaining Pakistani prisoners who were captured in the U.S.-led war that ousted the Taliban in late 2001, Pakistan's ambassador said Sunday. Ambassador Rustam Shah Mohmand said about 900 prisoners will be transferred to Pakistan, where they will be screened by authorities and likely released.
And how many will head back to Afghanland and jihad?
"This is a welcome decision although it has come late in the day," Mohmand told reporters in a press conference at the Pakistan Embassy in Kabul. "We believe this will pave the way for ... normalizing and improving relations with Afghanistan."
"Soon as we get our sphere of influence back, we're gonna be all set..."
No date was set was set for the transfer, but Afghan presidential spokesman Sayed Fazel Akbar said the process would likely begin next week.

#4  ..Actually, Bomb-a-Rama is on the right track - these guys saw up close what trained people with 21st century weaponry can inflict on them once they're pissed enough. They may encourage others to go, but I have a feeling that they will be cleaning their turbans the next time somebody asks them to go a-Jihading.

#3  These jihadis should be given a warning: return to Afghanistan to resume their little war and the next time they will go home in wooden boxes.
