Taliban Hangs 15 Year old For Having U.S. Money

(Hat Tip: Cyber Crusader)

The religion of "peace" strikes again in Afghanistan. Taliban militants hanged a teenager for possessing U.S. dollars:

Taliban militants hanged a teenager in southern Afghanistan because he had U.S. money in his pocket, and they stuffed five $1 bills in his mouth as a warning to others not to use dollars, police said Monday. Taliban militants elsewhere killed eight police.

The 15-year-old boy was hanged from a tree on Sunday in Helmand, the most violent province in the country and the world's No. 1 poppy-growing region.

"The Taliban warned villagers that they would face the same punishment if they were caught with dollars," said Wali Mohammad, the district police chief in Sangin.
