Your Logic Is Beyond Me

As someone who is ambiguously ambidextrous, I am rather envious of Unambiguously Ambidextrous. Apparently, mullah Omar has put out a five-point directive for Taliban fighters:
1. Fight coalition forces to the death without withdrawing or surrendering; attempt to capture coalition forces whenever possible.

Unambiguously Ambidextrous:
Regarding the first directive, it would appear that the so-called “torture-war crimes” conundrum has been put to rest. Not that this will likely dissuade people from believing that Afghans are still being tortured “in our name.”
The Taliban are now ordered to fight to the death, while trying to capture coalition forces. This, of course, means that we are no longer turning Afghans over to our local allies for torture. QED.
Bonus logic: The linked post includes the Time cover picture of the girl whose nose and ears were cut off by the Taliban. The title of the post is "But To Some People, We’re The Bad Guys In Afghanistan". Taliban bad, coalition good.
