Obama: Taliban Can Be a Part of Afghanistan Government – Taliban: Convert, Die or Become Our Sex Slave

Yesterday I wrote here about the current situation in Afghanistan. For those who don’t know, Obama has come out in favor of having the Taliban as part of the government in Afghanistan. You know, the same Taliban that we fought to remove:

President Barack Obama is prepared to accept some Taliban involvement in Afghanistan’s political future and appears inclined to send only as many more U.S. troops as needed to keep al-Qaida at bay, a senior administration official said Thursday.

The sharpened focus by Obama’s team on fighting al-Qaida above all other goals, while downgrading the emphasis on the Taliban, comes in the midst of an intensely debated administration review of the increasingly unpopular eight-year-old war.

The Taliban has some changes it would like to see, starting with your religious preference:

International Christian Concern (ICC) has learned that on October 6, members of the Taliban sent threatening letters in Sargodha, Pakistan warning Christian leaders to convert to Islam or face dire consequences.

A copy of the letter obtained by ICC warns Christians to convert to Islam, pay Jizya tax (an Islamic tax imposed on religious minorities) or leave the country. If Christians refuse to accept the choices given to them, the letter explains that they “would be killed, their property and homes would be burnt to ashes and their women would be treated as sex slaves. And they themselves would be responsible for this.”

Well, I think that is clear enough. It’s hard to misunderstand that, now, isn’t it?

I would like to know how Obama plans to negotiate with thinking like this?
