Okay, this happens just about every week in the NW part of Pakistan as Taliban grab local villagers and accuse them of spying for America then kill and behead them - I'm throwing it up today only to show how the Taliban simply are not learning....they are not learning that their abuse and torture and killing of the very people that previously gave them sanctuary will end up being their Waterloo.
From the article at Yahoo News:
I'd like to point out that these beheadings occurred in North Waziristan where just about twice a week these same Taliban are watching some of their buddies vaporizing from predator drone strikes - my guess is that with these beheadings, the support for the drone strikes from the villagers is sure to rise.

The bodies of three men were found near Mir Ali town in the North Waziristan tribal district that borders Afghanistan.

Taliban behead 3 'US spies' in Pakistan: police
MIRANSHAH, Pakistan (AFP) – Taliban militants in Pakistan's restive tribal area Sunday beheaded three men they accused of spying for US forces stationed across the border in Afghanistan, police said.
The bodies of three men were found near Mir Ali town in the North Waziristan tribal district that borders Afghanistan.
"Notes found with the bodies said the men were killed for spying for the US," tribal police official Nisar Khan told AFP.
Khan said the three dead men had themselves killed "several Taliban and ordinary people".
A local security official confirmed the incident.
Islamist militants frequently kidnap and kill local tribesmen accusing them of spying for the Pakistani government or US forces, who are battling a Taliban-led insurgency in war-torn Afghanistan.
Pakistan's rugged tribal regions have been wracked by violence since becoming a stronghold for hundreds of Taliban and Al-Qaeda rebels who fled across the border to escape the US-led invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001.
