Yet another example of what happens if you give savages guns. I also believe the Taliban have them too.
these poor vaccinators have reaped what was previously sown.
I have no idea whether the US or ISI or Mossad or the Belgians for that matter used the programme as a basis of intelligence gathering. It doesn't really matter whether they did/do or not because these killings are about intimidation and any excuse is just a cover story to justify to the locals and the misdirect the western hand wringers.
Why were these people out there in the first place? Because the country is so ****** up in terms of mentality that it still has a polio problem in the 21st century.
The warped intent behind the killing is to stop the vaccination programme. And the killings are about intimidation and control.
I, like you , have no idea either. But why would the US (or anyone else) give them any excuse to justify what they have just done?
Simple they used a vaccination programme to gather blood samples and therefore DNA to certify his relatives in the area. Once they found his daughters then it was easy for Seal Team Six to come knocking on the right door
I wasn't asking why they (the US) had done it (that's obvious), but why give the Taliban an excuse for what they have just done (murder 5 women).

This one goes back to the USA for putting cross-hairs on the back of every humanitarian worker. And the USA wonders why the world doesn't trust them.
While in principle that argument holds water it falls down when examined in detail. Its the difference between a reason and an excuse for acting in a certain way. Taking blood samples for DNA tracing in the name of a hepatitis program could indeed yield intelligence information but how exactly feeding a child a sugar lump coated with a inactivated live virus as an oral vaccine would do so I don't know. There has been resistance to vaccination campaigns in the past but almost without exception they have at their source a group of people whose agenda is driven by political power and influence rather then a concern for the people involved. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/20/international/asia/20polio.html?pagewanted=1&_r=0
1st thing I'll say is as a Muslim, I see nothing Islamic in what the Taliban stand for
Thank you EVL.
I hope I don't cause offence with this, but a Muslim like yourself denouncing the Taliban is what has been lacking IMO. Your other comments are appreciated also.
