This is why Israel survives. The tribal Moosies hate each other even more than they do the Joos.

Mostly Off Topic:

This artcile reminds me of a good horror movie from the black and white era: “13 Ghosts!”
Martin Milner and Margaret Hamilton were in it.
Martin Milner; was most famous for “Route 66”
Margaret; most famous as The Witch in “Wizard of Oz”

Maybe a new movie can be made with “13 Ghosts of The Jihad!”

Hmm. Not quite sure how to feel about this, but somehow, it’s a good thing.

You should root for both sides. The sunni/shia schism is alive and well.

An earlier story said that this location was presumably picked because there was a large Chinese delegation attending a meeting of some sort there. If they’re throwing down on the Chinese, it could get REAL interesting.

MoFA is one of the nicest Afghanistan ministries, which isn’t saying much. There’s a large “garden” in the back between wings. Nice, but only by Afghan standards.

Appropriately, friends of mine there, would say “I’m going to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs” in loo of bathroom, toilet, etc. (deliberate “error”)

As I recall that MoFA garden is where the local girly men flirt in anticipation of man-luv Thursday.
