An interesting quote from Ahmad Jawad, the father of the unfortunate boy Basat Jawad who died in the blast interviewed by Marc Nicol:
I asked Ahmed who he blamed for the sickening attack which killed his son. As I waited for my translator to put Ahmed’s words into English, I assumed he would curse the butchery of the Taliban.
But Ahmed, a shopkeeper at Kabul airport, said: ‘Civilians like my son are dying because of the presence of British and international forces and government members in this city. The Taliban target Westerners who use these restaurants and innocent people get in the way.
‘They have killed my son but I would rather the Taliban came back because there were not explosions like this when they were in power.’

I wonder when Ahmad will be told that by PF members out of touch with reality and laced with agendas
A) He's a paki
B) He's an Islamist
C) He's a raised in the West liar out of touch with what Afghans "really want"?
D) He's a salafist
For that matter I wonder how long before the government, NDS, or thug ANA/ANP members rough this grieving father up for simply telling the truth based on the evidence at hand in the most logical fashion.
