Terrorist weapon
I don’t know if this is clever or just weird, but at least no one is dying from it.
Taliban terrorises RAF families
TALIBAN fanatics terrorised the wife of an RAF officer by phoning her and saying: “You’ll never see your husband alive — we have just killed him.”
Rebels in Afghanistan are targeting British forces’ families with hate calls after tapping into Our Boys’ mobile phones.
The tearful wife rang the RAF fearing the worst after receiving the midnight call — and was told her husband was safe and well.
But the Taliban calls are a sick new plot to destroy morale, and British forces in Afghanistan have now been BANNED from using mobiles.
Army chiefs believe extremists are using sophisticated eavesdropping equipment to trace home numbers when forces call their loved ones in Britain.
The Taliban will have to try a LOT harder to destory the morale of the British people. They went through 6 years of absolute hell during World War II, and managed to keep their morale up enough to keep fighting despite incredible odds.
Still, they did have Winston Churchill to lead them. No such great leader exists for them now.
So many nuclear weapons, so many reasons to use them…
#2 – Amen!
It really never crossed my mind that soldiers in the field have access to cell phones. That would seem to me like a bad idea. Things sure have changed. I remember you couldnt have anything on your person that could identify you, except dog tags. If captured, you could only give name rank and ser. number, or face a UCMJ charge. Now they can take the cell phone off your person and call people in your address book?
I do wish the U.S. military had concentrated on finishing off these stone age azzholes before Bush/Cheney sent most of them off to Iraq for no good reason.
I don’t know if the results of a post-war in Afghanistan would have been superior to the post-war in Iraq (the Soviets sure had a lot of problems) but it certainly would have been more satisfying, fighting these particular scum-of-the-earth.
Pathetic!
Only a bunch of hopeless camel screwing losers would have to stoop to calling someones wife. That is the ultimate in cowardice.
Next thing you know they’ll be playing ding-dong-ditch and tittering like little girls.
Maybe the wife could run over some loons outside a mosque to make herself feel better.
It works for me.
The taliban stole that idea from an Avril Lavigne video.
Sophisticated Eavesdropping….ha! Try this, the guy at the cellphone company prints out the log of calls and gives it to his Taliban friends.
NOw comes an interesting thought…
WHAT is the tech. they are using to find these phone numbers??
the fun part.
Tracking the ASS, that gave up those numbers…
To consider…
That Many in the military are using SAT phones…And picking up the signal, and dialing, shouldnt be that hard…UNLESS they are digitally encoded…Are they??
Did they ask if the refrigerator was running?
Great, now telephones will be banned by the Bush government. That’ll show them terrorists.
#7. OK James I’ve had it with you. You’ve said some really unbelievable things over the years but this is really too much.
Don’t you know that by actually hitting a piece of camel raping taliban shit you’d screw up a perfectively good suspension, not to mention your wheel alignment and tire balance?
Its much better to weld angle iron on the front of your car and take ’em out like the old Shermans did hedge rows in France!
#14 – LMAO! You’re right!
Ya, how did they get the phone numbers?
Q: How do you get a Taliban out of a tree?
A: You cut the rope.
Clearly these Al Taliban blokes are porking his missus. Thats how they got her number, case closed.
Trust good old pedro to go on a anti Muslim rant off topic yet again(must be a Christian).
All the dirty ops used by western intelligence and Defense forces and you guys get your shorts in a knot because someone called a RAF officer’s wife and said he was dead. For fuck sakes, don’t you armpits have any sense of proportion?
Calling you idiots morani would be an insult to the other morani of the world. It’s the effen SUN for Pete’s sake. It’s an effen tabloid that invents their news ala Fox Spews and Rush Limbaugh.
GROW UP AND GET SOME EFFEN LIVES !!!
#18
Have some balls and actually write fuckin for shit sake!
#19, I don’t like to use foul language.
An Old Palestinian trick , at least 15 years old! Arabs Teach Arabs , or maybe the Taliban have a palestinian connection??
G’d Bless America and Americans!
