Taliban PR accidentally emails out entire mailing list

[Maxadia]

;D ;D ;D

In a blunder seemingly ripped out of an American sitcom, the Taliban public relations team accidentally sent out its entire mailing list in an email last weekend.

Taliban spokesperson Qari Yousuf Ahmedi was forwarding an email from another Taliban spokesperson last Saturday, but much like your grandmother, he seemed to have confused the BCC (blind carbon copy which keeps emails addresses private) and the CC functions, and published the entire mailing list to everyone on it.

According to ABC News, about 400 names were on the mailing list, many of them journalists, but also a “provincial governor, an Afghan legislator, several academics and activists, an Afghan consultative committee, and a representative of Gulbuddein Hekmatar, an Afghan warlord.”

While one combat reporter noted the Taliban had four of his email addresses, other people mocked the blunder on Twitter.

In related news.  The CIA, as not be out done by the Taliban has also released its own mailing lists, noting the fact that the CIA has more 800 people on theirs. ;D
