My point wasn't that the human-rights record of Afghanistan is 'better' than that of the US (clearly, it isn't). Rather, I was expressing distaste at what I (playfully) interpreted to be your suggestion that the banning of musical instruments outweighs the killing of a few dozen people. I'm pretty sure that you *don't* actually take this to be the case, and that your point was that, in the context of present world affairs, the Afghanistan situation deserves our attention and indignation more than the 10-year-old Waco incident. I agree, but feel that you were a little dismissive of the (largely innocent) victims of Waco. Anyways, basically I was just being a shirt-stirrer. I will be good now. Promise. No more wildy-off-topic controversial posts from me, nosiree. So... what's the IDMest abortion technique? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
