Sky News has obtained new video of Taliban training camps and the murder of Pakistani security forces. We warn that Stuart Ramsay's reports contains evidence of extreme violence and shows video of the moments immediately before executions.

Pakistan No-Go Area As Taliban Take Control
The Taliban are now in control of the Swat Valley area of Pakistan. Stuart Ramsay is the only foreign TV journalist to have entered the region since the takeover. There are scenes of a public flogging in his report: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N704fjRECKw

Beneath The Veil
A hard hitting documentary with presenter Saira Shah who went undercover prior to 9/11 to find out what the Afghanistan not shown in the press was like under Taliban rule. Strongly recommended documentary for anyone who is interested in what was happening in Taliban run Afghanistan leading up to the 2001 invasion: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4201322772364661561

4. That's a very good analogy
At least we don't have Busch in any more and McCain failed to take charge of the nuclear football. I have to admit to feeling slightly more optimistic now that Obama and his team are in charge...
