Afghanistan
Governor's Nephew Rapes Afghan Kid
2009-07-29
[Quqnoos] A nephew of a district governor in the northern Baghlan province has raped an eleven-year old boy, the victim's father revealed The sixth-grade schoolchild who has been working part time at a tailoring shop in Baghlan-e Markazi district told Quqnoos that nephew of the district governor, Amir Gul, kidnapped and raped him nearly two weeks ago. "They took me and fasten my mouth, eyes and feet and then did the thing to me," the boy, Ahmad, (not his real name) described.
A thing common enough that the lad needn't describe the details for everyone to know what he means.
Baghlan-e Markazi's governor's nephew, Mohammadullah, and another man kidnapped Ahmad on his way to the tailoring shop, the weeping boy further said. Ahmad's father who wished to remain anonymous said after the sexual abuse, his son was taken to a hospital at the provincial capital, Pul-e Khumri, 30 km south of Baghlan-e Markazi district.

'Don't Disgrace Me'
Ahmad's father accused governor Amir Gul for not reviewing the sexual abuse case despite he reported the issue to district judicial department. "I went to governor with my letter, he took me to a private room and said that this [the rape] issue can be resolved in gathering with elders, not the government, so don't disgrace me," Ahmad's father described the behavior of the governor.
Do you know who I am!
Baghlan's provincial governor, Mohammad Akbar Barikzay, confirmed the abuse and vowed to follow up the case. Governor Amir Gul and other government officials in Baghlan-e Markazi district avoided to talk on this issue.
Maybe they'll have pops over for...a beer.
Child rape — mostly carried out by local guerillas — has been frequently reported in many provinces of the country. Last year in September, eight armed men had raped two schoolgirls, one thirteen and another twelve, in the northern Sar-e Pul province. The local armed men were arrested by the provincial government but they were soon released.
Let that be a lesson to ya, boys.
Ummmmmmm...okay.
If boys aren't allowed to do the things that boys do, they do worse things. Or so some say.

#5  The Kite Runner portrayed this cultural divide, with the Pashtun arrogance instilled in children and growing up to be Taliban barbarians. Culling the herd is the only way to stop the disease from spreading.

#3  Word LR. No administration wants to deal with the base problem - islam, and the subhuman position accorded to non-muslims. Sure, they will take our money and goodies and help putting down their enemy over the next hillock. But without confronting the muslim ideology, whether we are there 10, 20, 100 years won't make a difference on how they view, or the ultimate fate of, the other.

#2  Unless you leave black glass we would be back a few years later to clear the infection again.

I sympathize but leaving is no solution to the problem, wish it was.

#1  And these are the "good guys"? Friggin' orcs - the lot of 'em. Wall the place up, stick a sign on the outside reading "Hell on Earth" - and leave the Afghans to wallow in the 10th century.

Spending blood and treasure on these slugs is an utter travesty.
