100 Years of Hate, Beginning Today

An American drone attack in Datta Khel, Pakistan killed 44 people, including 13 children, on March 17, 2011.

One of the elders, Malik Faridullah Wazir Khan told the BBC that "the area was completely covered in blood. There were no bodies, only body parts - hands, legs and eyes scattered around. People carried away the body parts in shopping bags and clothing or with bits of wood, whatever they could find."

"We are a people who wait 100 years to exact revenge. We never forgive our enemy."



"We announce a jihad against the US and her allies sitting in our country," said Malik Jalal Sarhadi Qat Khel, another tribal leader. "We will avenge our tribesmen at any cost, even if it takes a hundred years."
 
 

Kalasha

The Kalasha inhabit a few small villages in three very remote valleys in Nuristan Province, Afghanistan, and likewise across the Durand Line in the Chitral District of Pakistan. Their language and culture are radically different from the surrounding ethnicities, and many of them claim descent from the Greek soldiers whom Alexander of Macedon left behind in Afghanistan. During one of their many, many festivals, in July and August, dancing and singing continue every night for a month.

Starry Starry Night

Looking through DOD photos of soldiers on guard in Zabul Province, Afghanistan, I kept asking myself...

What are they guarding, in the middle of nowhere?



What are they guarding?



Are they guarding these roads?



Roads from nowhere to nowhere!



Tens of thousands of American soldiers, year after year after year...



Soldiers millions of miles from nowhere, in the starry starry night!
