Afgans don't know about 9/11 - torturing and killing civilians





Investigative journalist Gareth Porter reports that 90% of "Taliban" captured by General David Petraeus were civilians. In December of 2010 Petraeus stated 4100 rank and file Taliban had been captured and 2,000 had been killed in 6 months. According to official US military data which was not publicized, what he didn't say was 80% of those were released within days of capture because they were found to be innocent civilians. Porter joins the show to explain.



General Petraeus lied when his command said that a total of 4,100 Taliban rank and file had been captured in the previous six months and 2,000 had been killed. It turns out that over 90% of the captured "rank and file Taliban" were released--80% within the first two weeks.

It's a troublesome sign when the man picked to lead the CIA has clearly been proven to be a false prophet who blatantly cooks the stats.
