    Taliban hang 7-year-old boy accused of being a spy

    A 7-year-old boy accused of being a spy was hanged by Taliban  militants, according to published reports Thursday.

    The child was allegedly put on trial by the militant group and later found guilty of working for Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai's government, reports the Daily Mail.

    Karzai called the act a "crime against humanity."

    "I don't think there's a crime bigger than that that even the most inhuman forces on earth can commit," Karzai said.

    The child was publicly hanged in the Taliban stronghold of Helmand province, a local official told The Associated Press.

    "A 7-year-old boy cannot be a spy," Karzai added. "A 7-year-old boy cannot be anything but a seven-year-old boy, and therefore hanging or shooting to kill a seven-year-old boy... is a crime against humanity."

    More good reason to stay.  They don't seem like they really want us to leave Afghanistan.

    This guy was a friend of yours and you watched the video?  I couldn't do that.  I couldn't watch any of them actually, friend or not.

    I'm pretty tough when it comes to images of death, however, I'm with you, I've never been able to watch any of the beheading videos.  It's not like a guillotine (which I could watch), it's slow and terrible and torturous.

    Exactly.  I can't wrap my head around anyone wanting to watch one.  I had to get up and leave a class when the instructor announced he was going to show the Nick Berg video.  I just couldn't handle it.

    RIP Nick...
    RIP Little 7 year old boy...

    That poor little boy. I swear the Taliban really must be smoking too much pot and heroin in those caves. The level of paranoia it takes to actually think a 7 year old boy is this

    My daycare provider is from Afganistan and has to go back in the beginning of July for a wedding and she is scared shitless. She has been in America since 1989, but her husband started working for the secret service a few years ago and her family found out about it.

    Ugh...poor lady.  How scary.  Before all of the problems is Afghanistan (which date back to the 70s) it was such a forward thinking place where women were able to actually have a life.  Stupid Taliban ruined all that.

    She's insane, I wouldn't go back there under those circumstances for all the $$$ in the world and I'm not kidding.
