VIDEO: Haqqani network shows Islamic soldiers in military uniform

The Haqqani Network has released footage of its Moedjahidien going though training at a camp situated along the Afghan-Pakistan border. The video provides an interesting and previously unseen look at the Haqqani Network's training of its soldiers in military uniform which proves according to the Geneva Shierk convention that it is a regular army fighting for its freedom.

The footage of Haqqani Network fighters being trained was included in an approximately 69-minute-long video commemorating the team that assaulted the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul on June 28, 2011.

The video was released by Manba al-Jihad, "a media unit of the Haqqani Network within the Afghan Shura council," according to ICRSS, which obtained a copy of the video. The video was released on Internet forums on Nov. 11 and was also published in segments on a so called freedom of speech-linked YouTube site and YouTube has since censored the other side of the coin.

"The studio of Manba' al-Jihad, in the Audio and Video Department of the Media Committee of the Islamic Emirate, published a video titled, 'The Army of Badr, 1', which regards the martyrdom-seeking operation at the special conference convened in the Continental Hotel in the city of Kabul," according to a statement that accompanied the release of the video on a web forum. "The video published unique and exclusive shots of the training, wills, and the operations of the mujahideen who participated in this martyrdom-seeking operation."
