    No music, no images… two things that have defined Human culture for millennia. The Taliban must really love leading a miserable existence.

      Well, I know less about music, but iconoclasm is a pretty traditional feature of Islam. That’s why they have all the crazy geometrical art everywhere.

      And the Afghans have had music and art since forever, well after their conversion to Islam. The taliban are freaks.

        Yeah, sending troops to Israel sure helps Hamas. Wanting Israel to stop killing innocents and children sure is wanting Hamas to be in charge. Try harder next time

          Imagine living in 1940’s Europe and saying the sentence “oh, look, it’s the Zionist apologists again” when someone criticised the Nazis.

          No, no. I’m not arguing you in anything. Just take 10 seconds and imagine that scenario as vividly as you can.
