On January 19, 2012, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (the Taliban) issued a statement alleging that British soldiers “compelled two ten year old [Afghan] children” to participate in videotaped sexual activities with International Security Assistance Forces. The statement “vehemently condemns this moral and shameful act and points to this as an example of the ethical standards of the occupying soldiers.” The Islamic Emirate calls upon all Afghans to “take revenge… for these criminal actions” and urges all Muslim nations to “[cooperate] in any way possible in defeating this barbaric enemy.”
