What do you know about the afghan people ? I think we (as western civilization) cannot imagine how it is to be born into a totalitarian regime of religious fanatics. If you open just your mouth to say something in offense, you have to reckon with stoning. The only way to survive the firestorm of the whole world's rage seems to be the flight, but this is impossible because the borders are closed now.
I live about 50 miles away from Hamburg, where 3 of the "sleepers" have come from. Estimations are that about 100 more of the sleepers are still in Germany. Why do not napalm Germany to get rid of the 100 living bombs ? By the way you could balance some old accounts with us.
I pray for the innocent victims, I pray for peace, I pray for the thousands of innocent lives that will certainly be lost in the war that is near at hand, after that we will be two steps back (and I am sure not one step forward).
