Taliban embedded journalist

lots of people in the comments whining about the war, dead kids, etc.

my comment: "all they had to do was give up bin laden after 9/11 and we never would have invaded."

I have a question: Where do they get power to re-charge their radios they are using? I can't imagine they use them several times a day like that and don't re-charge them often. Unless using alkaline batteries.

My question is more along the lines of, holy fuck how do those guys have working radios? Every frequency between ULF and terahertz should have enough jamming interference to light up an incandescent lightbulb.

Radios are for heathens, boys, you don't get anything you can't assemble by hand in the Khyber pass.

H.

I was wondering these exact two things. If they have teh ability to power radios and are not being denied the frequencies to use the radios, WE are failing to do our job on that front.

Things are only "Western devil/infidel" material if it helps thier purpose. Thus radios are fine to use and listen to, along with cigarrettes and alcohol and playboys, until they defeat the Western scum... then those things will magically become off limits again.

I don't think the west can take credit for alcohol, smoking, or pornography.

Rgr Stu, just trying to make a point on hipocrisy and stuff.

I know bub. I just found it funny that you picked the three most universal "sins" out there to illustrate your point.

[BigBear]

eh, slow morning, I couldn't think any deeper! HAHA.

At about 4.30, isn't he changing the batteries? Looks like he is unwrapping a fresh set.

Yep, missed that.

So how does a journalist "embed" with the enemy?

Journalist: Hey guys, I know you hate me and everything I stand for, but I'm going to live with y'all and take some pictures, is that kewl?

Embedded & Beheaded sound too similar for my comfort.
