“Get your freedom from these terrorist dogs,” reads the Pashto-language text. “Help the coalition forces find these terrorists and eliminate them. The image shows a lion chasing a white dog that is meant to represent the flag of Taliban insurgents, which is white with the Shahada printed at the center.”

A leaflet distributed Sept. 5 by U.S. forces in Afghanistan shows a dog bearing the Islamic Shahada, or profession of faith, an image that many found offensive. (Sultan Faizy / For The Times)
