People here take their holidays in the most extraordinary places. Probably it springs from their residence in what most regard as an idyllic place to go on holiday. Off they set to Mauritania, Iraq, Afghanistan...., the better to enjoy their earthly paradise on return home.
This story in today's WSJ :
'Afghan police said militants beheaded six Afghans for cooperating with government authorities. ... a seventh Afghan man is being treated for serious neck injuries.'
was greeted with the local response - 'three times they miss then you're let off'... and - 'keep still'.
