Taliban claim to have captured Canadian

Taliban insurgents claim they have captured an Ontario man who is missing in Afghanistan. The Taliban published a statement Sunday that claimed a Canadian "spy" had been captured in Ghazni city, in the eastern part of the country. The Taliban say Rutherford is being kept somewhere safe and it's expected they'll soon release a video of him. As we can see from this capture, Taliban contributors are on high alert for any progressive or relief action against their cause which further displays an unstable area for Canadian troops trying to help support the country. As I have previously stated throughout the blog about the outrageous costs of this mission along with the number of Afghan troops being trained who drop out and join the Taliban, it has become time to either pull out or take a second look at the missions plan to take direct action this terrorist group. I don’t think that as one nation we can solve this issue alone, but clearly, such reckless and harmful action must be solved and put to justice in my opinion.
