TALIBAN'S BAD KARMA: Hindu leaders in India say that the US strikes are divine retribution for the Taliban's destruction of the 1500 year-old giant Buddhas in Afganistan. The Taliban felt guilty about these attacks immediately after, but only because they regretted that they hadn't done it sooner. To make things right with Allah, they sacrificed 100 cows. No word on the karmic debt resulting from this slaughter of sacred cows.
