Key Taliban Commander Gets Pink Slip
.....
Shah Mansoor Dadullah is the younger brother of the slain Taliban commander Mullah Dadullah (killed May 13, 2007 by Coalition forces). Shah Mansoor was released from jail by the Afghan government along with 5 other Taliban officials in exchangefor the release of an Italian journalist held captive by Taliban militants back in March.
Taliban kicks out prominent commander
A key Taliban commander in southern Afghanistan has been dismissed for disobeying the militant group's rules, a Taliban spokesman said Saturday.
Mansoor Dadullah was "disobeying orders" and conducting activities "against the Taliban's rules and regulations," said Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid. He did not provide any details.
"For this reason Mullah Mansoor Dadullah is no longer in the Taliban and no longer a Taliban commander," Mujahid said in a statement he attributed to Taliban leader Mullah Omar.
Dadullah rose in the militia's ranks as a key commander in southern Afghanistan after his brother, Mullah Dadullah, was killed during a military operation last May in Helmand province. Mullah Dadullah was the highest-ranking Taliban commander killed since the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
Mansoor Dadullah could not be reached for comment.
Mujahid said Taliban sympathizers who had been providing help to Mansoor Dadullah should stop.
Wild Thing's comment........
"Mansoor Dadullah could not be reached for comment."
Now that's funny!
There once was a man named Dadullah
Who the Taliban said was a fool-ah
They stripped him of his rank
His hopes of glory they sank
If he takes a dirt nap, that would be so cool-ah.

I'm all for that dirt nap, move over Ouday and Quasay. I reckon the poor ratbastard will have to go to work for al Jazeera or the Beeb now.....unless he becomes a double agent for Pelosi.

Great limerick. I hope that Donald Trump doesn't get any ideas and change his "You're fired!" to "Dirt nap time."

Fired from the Taliban! What a low blow. They did not even consider him splodeydope material.

VERY good, TomR. I had never heard the term "splodeydope" before. I had to look it up in the dictionary. Thanks, now I have something new to impress my Mooselimb friends with.
Yeah, "fired from the Taliban"... oh man, I feel sorry for him. Maybe he can redeem himself by being the next "bomb" somewhere.

Her constituents tasted like... chicken? - Tony Tiger 2007 with Milk!

Tom I guess not, this must be the lowest a person can go to get kicked out of the Taliban. LOL
Posted by: Wild Thing at December 31, 2007 12:23 AM
SSgt Steve, now see that is something that just might redeem him. If he does do that I hope it turns out to be another one of terrorists accidents where they only kill themselves.

Yankeemom......LMAO don't you love that part. I laughed so hard when I saw that...."could not be reached for comment".
