British troops stormed into Musa Qala yesterday as Taleban fighters fled their fortress town.Yeah... big surprise.
Soldiers from the 2nd Yorkshire Regiment, the Green Howards, pushed into the city with the Afghan army, as president Hamid Karzai revealed many local insurgents had swapped sides ahead of the overwhelming British assault.
"The Afghan Taleban, they met with me. They said that they wanted to swap sides, and that is what has happened."
Apparently Allah changed his mind
There's not gonna be a "fight to the death" after all...
