Usually the absurdity of propaganda tends to undercut it. But Mehsud knows his audience. It isn’t us.

One Response to “Great Taliban Victory”

  1. The_Real_JeffS Says:

    Yeah, the Taliban (and Al Qaeda) have been playing this game for a long time. At one point, they were claiming responsibility for the forest fires in the western US.
