Americans attempt to sell Surface to Air Missiles to Taliban

BBC News - Seven charged by US with conspiring to aid Taliban

"Seven people, including two Americans, have been charged with conspiring to aid the Afghan Taliban by selling the militant group weapons and moving drugs through West Africa, US officials say."

I wonder why this story isn't gaining more attention from UK news networks?
