Taliban soldiers mock WWII pic of US Marines raising flag on Iwo Jima

We are a laughing stock but more importantly, we are seen as betraying those we promised to protect. I am glad our WWII soldiers (mostly) are not around to see this.

A group of Taliban fighters released a collection of propaganda footage, including a photo where they mocked the famed World War II picture of soldiers raising the American flag on Iwo Jima.

In the original 1945 photograph, a group of six Marines are depicted hosting the flag on Mount Suribachi.

The Taliban's Badri 313 Battalion recreated the image this week.
