Last week, in Quetta, Pakistan, a homicide bomber attacked a prominent Shiite bank manager—and when his friends and relatives followed him to the hospital emergency room, another bomber attacked them, killing eight. The police assume that this was a “sectarian” (Muslim Sunni vs Muslim Shia) attack. This is nothing new; this is the template, the pattern. For example, also in 2009, in Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan, a Shiite Muslim leader was shot down; the next day, at his funeral, a homicide bomber killed himself and 28 mourners. Again, the police described this as “sectarian” violence. In 2008, in the same town, after the shooting death of a Shiite Muslim cleric, both the hospital and the funeral were subsequently attacked either by a homicide bomber or by a “planted” device. These Muslims take no prisoners. Yesterday, the deputy mayor of Kandahar, in Afghanistan (123 miles away from Quetta), was shot to death while he was praying in a mosque.
What mercy might such people show to infidels, women, or children, including their own?
None. None at all. Westerners are so confused about this—not only because they are brainwashed and do not want to be called “racists,” but also because these people tend to have such charming and “sincere” faces.
Last night, I watched the saddest little movie, a brave Frontline documentary about the “Bacha Bazi,” the underage “dancing boys” of Afghanistan. These children are sex slaves to older, powerful Afghan men–in this instance, former Northern Alliance warlords, who have purchased them from their impoverished families or, as orphans, simply taken them off the street. When they try to escape, they are found and punished—or they are murdered.
“Dagastir,” a former Northern Alliance warlord, who today has hundreds of police officers at his disposal, has an impassive, even a kind face. He does not look or sound ashamed or guilty about what he does. Yes, of course, he is married and has two young sons.
Human Rights Watch, cited by Amnesty International, first broke this story in 1997. They cited it as a Taliban-abuse. I write about this in my book The Death of Feminism. Now UNICEF says that this practice “has to be eradicated.” The documentary narrative admits that, although such sex slavery is illegal, the police will not make arrests, and that the rare jail sentence is quickly commuted. The police themselves often comprise the all-male audiences who enjoy the dancing boy performances.

Between Frank Marshall Davis and Obama’s roots in Islamism; easier to understand his - baseball pitch. And Michelle, as well,
Please stop this hokey “homicide bomber” nonsense. I cringe every time I see it.
All terrorist bombers - whether via hamas rocket, roadside IED, or the ‘old TATP girdle — are homicide bombers by definition, but not all are commit suicide in the process.
Therefore “suicide” is an appropriate qualifier to denote the means by which the attack was carried out.
so did I!
Something wrong with the link.
FRONTLINE- the dancing boys of afghanistan- watch the full program - PBS
I think of Obama, trancelike - as he waxes on the beauties of his. . .religion during a speech.
Would like to send link/note to Christopher Hitchens - and perhaps Chris Matthews might have a comment.
But I doubt it.

Wasn’t that part of the story of THe Kite Runner? It’s been a long time since I saw the movie, but I seem to remember that that is what happened to one of the boys.
Bacha bazi, boys of the place that should be carpet bombed
2) Value added tax...when will the straw that is piling on break the patience of America's good people?
Jerusalem called the *New PC* considering the sity and it's new Jewish dwellings, "settlements." Such a slap in the face.
3) Meanwhile Syria is mobilizing and now has Gas tipped missiles thanks to the diversionary "Food For Oil" con that started the higher tensions in the ME. Doesn't take a genius to figure out where the technology originated but it's just speculation on my part it's from Iraq.
4)Prophecies from thousands of years ago, from Isaiah who predicted/prophecied through His spirit these days will come, prophecied when even Babylon was just an outhouse in camelville...and what and when oif Exekiaks 38-38? And what of the extreme falling away of all Christians and disillusioned Jews?
4) So when will it all begin and will America,prideful yet beaten down by the cluster bombs of the "present" Abu Hussein in chief slandering her good people, joking of armaggedon like King Darius did in the last day of babylon as he drank from the golden cups of blessing and turned it into a curse while Cyrus diverted the damns and walking into the impregnagle ciity, unscathed....a rare Persian man that set our people free.
5)Oh so much more but the poisoning of the Afghani womens school shows just how inept America for all it's great soldies are figting a battle with a times line and tied up worse than Vietnam.
6) How much time before the world explodes> How many days or weeks, maybe months, but I wonder if we'll make it without the world exploding here and there until the false prophet becomes reality. Anytime now, anytime now.
