Perhaps some of the gents in this video have already been, shall we say, dealt with: severely. At any rate, a very interesting--and troubling--video release in light of the ongoing European terror plot. From The Telegraph:
A recruiting video produced by German militants and posted on an al-Qaeda website has cast fresh light on how European Islamists are joining insurgents fighting in Pakistan's mountainous tribal areas.
The 51-minute film shows German-speaking gunmen, armed with AK-47s, light machine guns and mortars, apparently taking on Pakistani troops in South Waziristan and Orakzai, areas close to the border with Afghanistan.
They include a clean-shaven man of Caucasian appearance, who wears a baseball hat pulled low on his face and sunglasses.
The role of the "German Taliban", as analysts have dubbed them, emerged last week when security sources said eight Germans were believed to be at the centre of a plot by al-Qaeda cells to launch commando attacks on European cities.
German authorities believe at least 70 German nationals have travelled to Pakistan for training, with about a third returning home.
