AWOL Afghans Found ... on Facebook
2010-06-26
Also submitted by Frozen Al.
At least 11 of the 17 members of the Afghan military who went AWOL from an Air Force base in Texas and are considered deserters by their nation have turned up in the exact place you'd expect to find them in the year 2010.

They're on Facebook.

And, by the look of things, they're not unlike millions of other young men on the social networking site. One proclaims to be a fan of Paris Hilton and is a member of a group named "FREE Webcam Sex with ME!" Another is a fan of hip hop music, Michael Jackson, the tearjerker movie The Notebook, Family Guy and Sports Center. Another is a fan of soccer and the Godfather.

#1  History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures."

Canada accomplishes this with relatively few problems. We have managed something no other nation has been able to do - get along with the French :)

Islam is not involved. Islam is the "culture" that cannot co-exist with any other. No nation can survive islam.

History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism inherent in islam.
