email from my buddy in a-stan...

Had one of the locals that works with us ever so often....his brother was just arrested for killing his sister in an "Honor Killing"


Apparently, the sister was raped two weeks ago...and because of this, she is now dishonored. She will bring no "Bride Price" in marriage IF she even marries and is therefore a severe buden on the family and brings dishonor to the family.

So the brother killed her by stabbing her. And apparently the neighbors cheered from what the dude was telling me.

He's sad his sister is dead, but is angry his brother was arrested. He feels he was right to do it.




Wonderful group of people they are...

One war at a time for me, dude....I only have sanity for one.

When I come home and become a Cop...then I'll focus on that war. Until then, Im here on the ground and am facing THIS....so THIS is where my disgust is generated towards.

Personally, I think its a lost cause here....so much money has been dumped into this place. The Rockefellers, Firestones, Dole...all the big familes have dumped millions of dollars to help build this place up....only to have lost ALL of it.

Example....some bigshit money bags dumped over 1 million into building a small village that would be powered entirely by solar panels. The village would be for homeless and would have enough power to generate the entire village with enough left over to sell back to the market.

4 months go by and my Team is sent by helo to document by photograph the progress and construction.

We arrive and there is one HUT made of mud half leaning to the side with two 'Ghanis inside sleeping.

THAT was the village. We asked what was going on and they had no clue. They were vagrants. The construction company took the money, and thieves stol all of the solar panels. Everytime something was built, it was torn down by thieves looking to loot all of it for profit.

That happens 98% of the time with investments into rebuilding this country.
