LOL! They really think anyone takes them seriously?
Or is this aimed at the poor populace of Afghanistan, who are not allowed to know anything?

<< "if the United States stops its mass propaganda of military action," CNN quoted Taliban foreign minister Wakil Ahmed Mutawakel as saying in the southern Afghan city of Kandahar. >>

This is just a propaganda tool, being used by the Talibans to blame America for the mass exodus of Afghans, who are fleeing from the Talibans, not the US.

The Taliban is demanding that the US stop its "mass propaganda". It's just a stupid statement from stupid people.

"The aid workers would be released "if the United States stops its mass propaganda of military action,"

So now the Taliban have officially crossed the line and decided to become terrorists who hold hostages, rather than a repressive government that harbors terrorists.

It was inevitable that this would happen...
