U.N. Condemns Alleged Burning of Taliban
AP reports: “Any abuses by U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan are ‘totally unacceptable,’ the United Nations said Monday after allegations emerged that American troops had burned the remains of Taliban fighters, then used the scene for propaganda purposes.”
So, are they condemning the allegation?
Great work by the U.N. Really on top of things. Maybe they’ll send us a letter, too, like they did with Saddam. That works.
Asked at a press conference about the alleged desecration, U.N. spokesman Adrian Edwards read a statement issued by the world body in May amid claims at the time that U.S. troops had abused Afghans in detention.
Can’t seem to recall hearing any U.N. condemnation of other burning bodies and abuses.
Real, not alleged.
