Russia offered cash rewards to Taliban fighters to kill US troops in Afghanistan

Russian intelligence officers for the military intelligence GRU recently offered money to Taliban militants in Afghanistan as rewards if they killed US or UK troops there, a European intelligence official told CNN.

The official was unclear as to the precise Russian motivation, but said the incentives had, in their assessment, led to coalition casualties. The official did not specify as to the date of the casualties, their number or nationality, or whether these were fatalities or injuries.

    1. Let it be known..there is a huge difference between ARRESTING a drug trafficker & MURDERING soldiers. There’s no comparison whatsoever.

    1. Wtf?? I literally just got done watching a video about the Mandela Effect where Billy Mayes used to say “BUT WAIT.. THERE’S MORE!”, and now he apparently doesn’t. Is that what u r referencing? I literally just learned about this a minute ago, and this is the top comment on this random video that was suggested (or did it send u here after watching the same video?)..

    2. Jack Jones tRump is the puppet of the communist both Putin and Xi. In Helsinki Putin punked
      tRump “like a dog”.

    1. Of course sheep. You behave predictably as was expected from you. Good boy. Listen to propaganda and obey.

    1. Another month starting out with more lies from the Chinese and their DNC puppets. Does their treason know no bounds?

    2. On Trumps’ rump, Putin does pound,
      as they love it in the style of hound.
      And though Donnie will exhort,
      Vlads’ arms are too short,
      to give a proper reach-around.

  1. Ask Moscow Mitch, he can make a quick call and get the skinny from his homies.

    1. 84 Vette Lol, tin foil hat indeed😅 I love seeing the kind of mental gymnastics these idiots have to undertake to still make trump palatable to them. And every day it’s getting more & more difficult for them to defend the big, orange lump…

    3. @Jordan Wolfe lol what? Someone had a honeymoon in Russia and that is what you hang your hat on….? Trump has 10x the Russian connections…..

    4. @Woohoo I watched that video and nowhere did say anything about any race. She was talking about kids in gangs not being like kids anymore. She said they’re super predators having no empathy etc. etc. You do know that there are gangs of every race in this country right?

    1. Yeah they’re fucking terrified that they have been wrong all this time and Trump doesn’t actually care about them.

      Never trust anybody who supports the slaughter of the unborn child in the womb, cuomo

    3. Johnny Lightning “Another anonymous person….” . And your name is Johnny Lightning?! Well hi there Johnny; I’m Billy Bumthunder!

    1. @Johnny Lightning, notice that Trump has yet to denounce the idea that bounties should be placed on US soldiers.

      Instead, he retweets someone yelling “white power” just to avoid addressing it.

    2. Jason Hernandez Your demoncrat party is the party of Lies.
      Another anonymous person, another reliable source with no name , making up lies , are you kidding me. You demoncrats deceiving the people .

    1. What do you propose that the president does ? Even if Trump wasn’t in office, what do you expect the government to do ? We cannot afford to go to war with the Russians.

    1. Why would our military industrial complex tell the truth commie? I’ll just sit here and listen to the crickets.

  2. “I spoke to Papa, er I mean Putin and he said, very strongly he didn’t do that. I believe him.” – Bunker Boy tRump

    1. @Johnny Lightning you conservatives have done nothing good for this country except spread lies and deceit among our people. We would have achieved full racial equality by now if you people were out of the picture. Y’all are the sole reason America isn’t the best country in the world.

    2. @Colin Head Because CNN hires farms to back their propaganda. Fox just agrees with the warmongering lies. (BTW THEY TURN OFF COMMENTS FOR A REASON. TRUMP FANS DON’T WANT WAR UNLIKE THE LEFT).Channels like TYT have gone full warmonger and support CNN in war because of insane TDS. They have a massive troll farm called the TYT ARMY. They flood any major News outlet to support any anti Trump rhetoric.

  3. Notice how when he heard the news got leaked, he defended Russia first in his tweet and not our troops.

    1. Gee does that mean if the story is “verified” by a nonliberal source you’ll dump Trump? How about Fox ENTERTAINMENT, and the Wall Street Journal? You’re just another Trumpublican moron.

    2. What you are saying is that no matter who says this is true you aren’t going to belive it’s unless it comes from trump himself. So there is no point in arguing.

    3. @TYT SUCKS SWAN BALLS all Americans need to get behind the truth and our shared values against the faux news and the pathological liar president and his party of self brainwashed communist morons.

    4. Notice whatever deep state tells you, you believe it. No thinking why they could do it. No asking for facts. You just immediately obey.

  4. This is so disturbing. Why do we still have open trade with Russia? Cut all ties. They don’t make anything that we need anyway. Ban travel.

  5. Drumpf on Putin: “You know what? Putin’s fine. He’s fine. We’re all fine. We’re people.”
    “Look, it would be much easier for me to be tough on Russia, but then we’re not going to make a deal.”
    “Every time he sees me, he says, ‘I didn’t do that,’ and I really believe… he means it.”

  6. We need to see Trump’s financial statements…don’t lose focus! We’ll know who’s pocket he is in. Russia, China…who else?
