The Taliban's New MAC Girl

While the assasination of Benazir Bhutto has provided an entertaining litany of ignorance from various presidential candidates and pundits alike, the real emerging star seems to be Baitullah Mahsud, the Taliban commander controlling the "lawless" Pakistani West who evidently masterminded the assassination. I assume his staunch advocacy of female circumcision and judicious use of eyeliner brought him to power. . . Despite the media's obsession with Osama bin Laden, these are the type of men we need to be cognizant of - the face of our enemy, if I may be so bold. And check out this photo essay in case you forgot how fucked up the Taliban is.
