Quran burning: Taliban urge Afghans to attack Westerners

Quran burning: Taliban urge Afghans to attack Westerners
Kabul: The Taliban urged Afghans on Thursday to target foreign military bases, and beat and kill Westerners in retaliation for burnings of copies of the Quran, Islam's holy book, at NATO's main base in the country.

"Our brave people must target the military bases of invader forces, their military convoys and their invader bases," read an e-mailed Taliban statement to media released by spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.

"They have to kill those (Westerners), beat them and capture them to give them a lesson to never dare desecrate the holy Quran again."
