If this is true, it's absolutely shocking. Afgan troops who surrendered to American and Northern Alliance troops murdered.

Thousands of Afghani POWs brutally executed, CBC alleges US military complicity.
This CBC documentary on war-crimes committed against Afghani prisoners with the complicity of the US military is shocking. It alleges that thousands of Taliban POWs were murdered -- most by being locked in baking shipping containers in the middle of the desert, with the survivors brought to a remote place and executed with 30-50 US soldiers in attendance. The source -- the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation -- is hardly known for alarmism or irresponsible journalism. The UN has offered to investigate, but only if the safety of the investigators can be guaranteed, something that the US-allied Afghani warlord has refused to consider -- and since the making of the documentary, many of the sources have been tortured or disappeared.

Nothing like this reported on the news, unsurprisingly maybe...
However there were new pictures of an American dragging a bound Iraq prisoner along by a leash on his neck.

Explosive? Yup.
Chances of it being seen by many? Practically nil.

Hell, that's nasty stuff. Explosive to say the least.
