In addition, there are also other victims of the terrorists and their supporters that should not be forgotten. The Taliban, who has been giving bin Laden and Al Queda safe harbor, has also brutally victimized 500 Afghan people by baking them in steel cargo containers over the course of 4.5 months. 300 of them died. Not to mention how the Taliban has been treating the women of Afghanistan for years since they took power. Literally and slowly baking people alive for months is so shockingly horrible that we want to call the perpetrators "sick" just because we can't wrap our minds around the idea of a mentally balanced person even thinking of doing something like that.
