A BRITISH Muslim who went to Afghanistan, to fight for the Taliban, has fled to Pakistan after his first taste of battle.

The 26-year-old says it wasn't the danger that bothered him. He says: "It was the recklessness of the Taliban and their disregard for those who were fighting for them".

What exactly did he expect of an organisation that recruits suicide bombers?
