Later, Abdulqahar Balkhi used the trending hashtags #FergusonDecision, #FergusonRiotTips and #Ferguson to attempt to steer Twitter users toward a new release from the Taliban’s multimedia division.
The new video, “The Land of Epic Battles,” contains “footage from Ghazni province of armed attacks against enemy bases and patrols, IED attacks of the vehicles of invaders and their stooges as well as a martyrdom attack on a base organized into three parts totalling approximately one hour and twenty three minutes,” according to the Taliban’s Cultural Commission.
