Why the Taliban ban on kite flying?
I read this story, http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070411/en_nm/afghan_kites_dc, around a kite-maker in Afghanistan. He said: "When the strictly Islamist Taliban ruled Afghanistan, which banned flights comets. Agha says he worked underground for a while and then fled into Pakistan. "Why did the Taliban ban kite-flying?
Dueling kites is practiced in Pakistan and Afghanistan killed dozens of people, mostly young children, every year when the strings attached to the glass in them, wrapped around the neck and neck cut and people bled to death. This year, free and democratic governments in Pakistan and Afghanistan, again both banned kite fighting, because a child died and many injured. However, the American liberal press did not spread the news. Another time. And in the first report made no mention of deaths in other countries from the sport. Yes, there is very heavy gambling on the kites. Yes, the Taliban is stupid and rooted in the 7th century. But not all governments are able and competent to prosecute the innocent victims? witness the incarceration of Japanese Americans in WWII World!
