Taliban terrorists (we won’t call them government officials here) apparently are escalating their war on western nations and westerners living in the country. According to translated media reports and locals, more than 7 British citizens and 1 American citizen (known so far at least) are being held against their will inside the country as the group clamps down on those it sees as enemies.
CNN also reports that some confirmations from these people’s own family members have emerged. It is yet another nail in the coffin in the war against the Taliban as they continue to seek legitimization as a terrorist cell who overthrew an actual real life government.
