If they spruce the place up a bit they could make it a new gay destination and take some of the "trade" that goes to Thailand.

Exotic Kandahar mud hut for rent ....comes complete with *houseboy*, fresh linens and maid service.

Americans need to be aware of ALL the consequences of our foreign policy. Another victory for the New World Order.

WE did not invent their nasty practices, so don't go charging them to our account. Quote:

Kandahar’s Pashtuns have been notorious for their homosexuality for centuries, particularly their fondness for naive young boys.

Men accused of sodomy faced the punishment of having a wall toppled on to them, usually resulting in death. In February 1998 three men sentenced to death for sodomy in Kandahar were taken to the base of a huge mud and brick wall, which was pushed over by tank. Two of them died, but one managed to survive.

Very reminiscent of the Salem Witch Trials.

"Giles Corey refused to give testimony at the 1692 Witch Trials. He would neither confess nor deny the charges brought upon him. So, in order to obtain a statement, he was taken outside, a board placed across his body, and heavy stones piled on top. It is said that his only words before he was crushed to death were; "More weight!"

It's YOUR war, bud -- don't you want to enjoy the Fruits of "Victory"? Bwahahahahaha!

Actually, the Taliban movement was started over the Gay Question. It seems that the anti-Soviet "freedom fighters" you guys were supporting were schtupping young boys left and right, and two of them got into a shooting match over one of them and shot up an entire village. This led to Mullah Omar -- he of the one-eyed visage -- rising up out of the Afghan muck to lead an Islamic revival and "restore order." Now that the US has "liberated" Afghanistan, the Boyz are back. And you wondered why Andrew Sullivan is so pro-war.....

But if they were young girls it would be perfectly alright though wouldn't it? In some states in the US girls can be married at 14 like in Utah.

Re post# 43: I think you're absolutely right. These people hate the truth. That's why they hide in ignorance and the mysticism of their weird religion. That's why they hate Western Civilization, with its emphasis on truth, freedom, etc. And, of course, truth is exactly what they need most.

What's worse: marriage for a girl at 13 or a homosexual replationship showered with gifts at 15-16 for boys.

In the very beginning, I proposed the theory that the strike at the Trade Center was penis envy writ large. I was only half facetious.

the gay capital of South Asia

HAHAHA! That's a lot like saying "The Ice Cream Capital of Tunisia." And what kind of a brag is that, anyway? "We may not be able to feed ourselves, and we're still living in mud huts, but we're on the cutting edge of buggery."

"The simple fact is, there is no way to ignore such an attack as 9/ll..."

Yes, and it did have the effect of awakening some Liberals from their denial. It did not infuse them with good judgment--nothing can do that--and, unfortunately, they don't even have enough good judgment just to get out of the way of those who do. But at least some Liberals are now aware that Hitler and the Nazis were not a unique anomaly and that grave danger constantly threatens us all. Whether or not Liberals will return their heads to the sand--and how promptly--remains to be seen.

It wasn't meant to be funny: well, maybe a little....

But seriously, the Taliban movement was started as a result of rampant sodomy-pederasty as practiced by the "mujahedeen" of "freedom-fighter" fame. I forget the name of the village where it all began, and of course you have to read the British papers to find all this out -- our own media wouldn't touch this one with a 10-ft. pole, if you'll pardon the expression -- but it's absolutely true. Ah, the ironies of war....

If the Taliban had any redeeming quality in Afghanistan, I guess this would be it. (Stopping the blatant homosexuality). Makes one wonder if that is why the American traitor from San Fran chose to join up. Isn't his father homosexual? However, they chose to attack America, bad move on their part.

A friend who was (don't ask) in a position to know said most religious/government leaders in Iran are also pederasts.

Yes, senorita, I think you've found the "good" side of the Taliban: they punished homosexuals by placing them next to a wall and then bulldozing the wall. Gee, why don't you write your congressman and tell him you want to institute this practice in America? Or is that too "off the wall"....?

Bwahahahahahahahaha!!!
