Dude, I saw this on tv this morning. So if you switch over from sportscenter to the news channels, you might see it as well.
Same could be said of the United States. The impoverished ones are almost always the "foot soliders," and the ones least likely to benefit from war.
Are you suggesting I get news by watching more TV during Houston Rockets offseason? Nay, I'll stick with internet news sources, including the Big 4/5.
Did NO ONE else find this funny? Those guys are as good as gone. We'll catch Bin Laden before we find them.
LOL! Yah, that's what I was saying. I mean, from these close-ups you can barely tell the four apart, now imagine trying to remember which one is which if you meet 'em somewhere on the streets of Afghanistan or Pakistan. I imagine there will be a ton of tip-off calls coming from people who thought they just saw one of the four, but will turn out to be nothing more than a case of mistaken identity. Wait! I think I just saw one of them the other day driving down Hilcroft!
What kind of moron puts on a big s*** eating grin for his terrorist mug shot? They must have caught him while they were raiding poppy fields. BTW, Impovirished is a relative term. I'd be willing to bet that all but the 1st eschelon of Taliban leaders in Afghanistan would have qualified as under the poverty line in the US. Per-capita GDP in Afghanistan is $800/yr, and in Pakistan it's $2200. While information on the Gini coefficent is unavalable in Afghanistan, the CIA presents a coefficent of 41 for Pakistan, which is pretty close to flat. The greatest cost in good dental care is a dentist, and in an economy where a dentist has good training, but a poor customer base, they can't charge much at all. Furthermore, if you don't drink and eat the sugary sodas and candies of the US diet, you are much less cavity prone.
Actually, they are headed to the Al Jazeera studios in Qatar to perform as a blues band called Abdullah and the Sharia Rockers.
To you, they may all seem the same. To me all chinese people look the same (no offense), but thats the plain truth. its harder for us to find differences in people who arent like us. Im sure afghani people dont see any resemblence in any of these 4.
if they all were wearing their traditional clothes, all had the same haircut, same height, and were in a group of 2000 other chinese people and you told me to pick em out, it would be quite difficult for me to pick em out.
Why only Chinese you can't differentiate? If other ethnic groups were put in the same situation, your visual sense would suddenly become keenly sensitive, huh?
If we were looking for Chinese terrorist, then this may apply. But since 99.99999999% of the world's terrorist have a beard and dresses like a jedi, they all look the same to most people. Lighten up, we're making fun of terrorist.
I probably couldnt differentiate 4 african brothers, or 4 mexicans, or 4 japanese.... the point is, if they were in the same situation as the 4 people in afghanistan, then it probably would be hard as hell to differentiate.
agreed mohammad atta, the guy in charge of 9-11 neither had a beard nor wore a jedi dress, nor did the others on the planes. You are confusing a group of people (mainly muslim and arab) with the actions of a few terrorists, who usually dont even look like what you described No, you are making fun of the culture and religious dressing of the people of afghanistan. And its pretty sad that you have to get down to their level and mock another group of people, im sure that would set a great example for your children. Mock the ones that wear a jedi dress and have a beard. I guess thats the type of mentality when innocents die... ironically, thats how the terrorists think as well. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/4665143.stm http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/07/08/AR2005070800483_pf.html
