And today in Shitholeistan
Somewhere in eastern Afghanistan they experienced their own version of the Newtown Massacre. In their case it was not the willful act of a crazy person, but the detritus of a previous conflict.
In a separate episode, 10 girls were killed in a rural district of eastern Afghanistan on Monday when a roadside bomb exploded while they were collecting firewood, the Afghan police said. The office of the governor of Nangarhar Province said the girls were all between 9 and 11 years old. The Ministry of Education said some were as young as 6...Will President Obama's efforts to leave troops behind in Afghanistan include mine disposal personnel?
In the blast in eastern Afghanistan, Hazarat Hussain Masharaqiwal, a spokesman for the police chief of Nangarhar Province, said that the children discovered the unexploded bomb near their village, and that it went off when they hit it with an ax. The explosion also injured a boy who was with them.
The local police said the bomb probably dated from the civil war or even the Soviet occupation of the country.
