Not seen Monkey Dust - liked "They're not terrorists, they're Baggies."
Not exactly new though - we had people of various religious and political persuasions going to fight in the various Balkans conflicts.

The military source said: "It's been well-known for some time among soldiers in Afghanistan that at least one Aston Villa fan was fighting for the Taliban."

Of course, they're usually more interested in having it out with the Zulus.

I was hoping the [more inside] would mean that there was more actual information inside, so I wouldn't have to watch a youtube video to know what was going on.
Shitty post.

I actually watched the whole video in the vain hope something would happen to give it a connection with the news story other than the dumb and obvious joke.

I think it's now clear that if you root for Aston Villa, you're supporting terrorism.
