Where Life Meets Politics!

According to http://www.star-telegram.com/279/story/1059777.html, it appears that the Afghan security forces have arrested the people who threw the acid on the Afghan school girls, which I had written about before right here, http://bouhammer.com/wordpress/?p=2048.

It appears that one of the teachers that was wounded along with the girls wants to follow the passages of the Koran which say “and eye for an eye”. After her herself being burned with acid and of course being there with her students as they were burned and blinded with acid, I can’t say I blame her at all. I hope the legal system there satisfies her wishes.
