After deleting several nasty comments, I will simply ask:

Can we truly be friends with these people?

^You should remember that most western countries were not really any better before the 20th century, expecting countries like Iran and Afghanistan to just become the kind of countries we are today over night is stupid. The only way for a country to change is to let the people change on their own. If the people of the country accept the cruel leadership, then there is nothing anyone can do about it. They will become better and the only thing we can do about is to help them to help themselves.

Religion religion religion, when will you learn?

Like pedophile priests in the Catholic church, Imams who have dirty secrets will eventually be discovered for their misdeeds. Then this whole beheading business will bite them in the ass.

My question is are we going to rub off on them, or will they rub off onto us? Right now it looks more like their ideology is spreading while our own is being disemboweled.

Our politicians endorse this kind of shit under the guise of tolerance. In a way I agree with both exploder and Tada, Afghan society is at a primitive stage where religion is the absolute, our own society should set a good example and be open about our disgust.

While you are right in some ways, these countries civilizations are much older then the USA. Honestly, where in history do you even begin to say where the fucked-up-ness began?

and they probably will never get that boy out...damn

^ why is it all about religion with you guys!? none of you give two shits about the kid, you just want to use this to further your agenda against religion, assuming all religions are the same...which they are not. If it hurts y`all that much, why don`t you do something about it? Ron Paul revolutionists jeez...Yea it looks good as a bumper sticker. "Down with religion"...then you get to the Vatican gates guarded by Swiss Guards. "On second thought religion isn`t so bad"

furthermore to what tada is saying: opression breeds religious fanaticism, we did our fair share of witch burning back when the church was incharge... it`s just a shithole over there in all regards so you really can`t expect anything better.

Religion is great! So open minded, kind, non violent and understanding!

If you`re religious, please kill yourself?

^ Buddhism is a religion. Kind, non violent, and understanding. You look so foolish associating one religion with all of them. Your arguement goes out the window, you cannot engage in debate if you are that closed minded.

You know how your father ignores you when he is reading the paper and you bring up a stupid topic, its the same feeling I get when reading comments like yours venom. But I care about you so I will attempt to teach your through the internet.

Europe and America used to be horrible places to live in but became much better places to live in as education and communication with the surrounding world improved. Same goes for most countries. The civilizations in west Asia are very isolated so they rarely understand how and why other people think the way they do so they generally blame it on something extremely foolish like Satan.

Place like Afghanistan have poor infrastructure and poor education. So information gets there slowly and when it arrives few understand it. There are some pockets of information like the major cities where rich people who can afford proper education live, like the report said Kabul is considered liberal you think that`s just a coincidence?
