Well yes, they were members of the Taliban fleeing US troops, but that won't matter to the supporters of Islamist terror.

U.S. coalition dogs bit two fleeing suspected Taliban militants during an operation in eastern Afghanistan in which a total of eight insurgents were detained, the coalition said Friday.

The raid Thursday in the Muslim country's Paktika province targeted a Taliban subcommander wanted for kidnapping, killing Afghan soldiers and involvement in roadside attacks, it said.

During the operation, ''two militants attempted to flee and were pursued by coalition military working dogs,'' the coalition said in a statement. ''Both militants received dog-bite injuries, one of which required treatment on scene by coalition medical personnel.''

No doubt we will soon be hearing demands for the following things from the Leftists who support the Taliban over their own country.

1. An end to the use of dogs in the Crusade Against Islamist Terrorism because the enemy considers the animals unclean.
   
2. A public apology by the President and US commanders for the use of dogs in the Crusade Against Islamist Terrorism.
   
3. A paid lawyer and early court date for a civil suit by the Taliban against the US military and the dog-handlers for the injuries received when they were bitten.
   
4. War crimes charges against the dog for biting the fleeing terrorists.
