CAMP EDWARDS – A high-ranking source tells the Cape Cod Times that the three Afghan soldiers have been located at the Canadian border, apparently seeking asylum.

The source has been briefed on the issue, but could not be quoted on the record because he was not authorized to speak.

U.S. Central Command could not immediately confirm the information.

The Afghan soldiers went missing Saturday at Cape Cod Mall in Hyannis.

3 missing Afghans in custody at Canadian border

Three senior Afghan military officers who failed to return to a U.S. training base in Cape Cod, Mass., were taken into custody Monday while trying to cross into Canada, according to spokesman for the Massachusetts state police.

State police spokesman David Procopio said federal authorities were interviewing the officers at Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls, but provided no further details.

My first thought is they were attempting to seek political asylum in Canada.

3. Another sign that the Taliban are winning the War in Afghanistan

If three OFFICERS prefer to DEFECT to another nation it shows that they do NOT expect to be active LONG nor do they expect their army to survive.
