    A district in southern Afghanistan that is largely controlled by the Taliban has the sad distinction of being the polio capital of the worldhttp://nyti.ms/2kiM45b

        The reason for the harsh life in Afghanistan is America and the world knows that it is caused by wars of the Afghan people 😊

        Nope,I intend to fight the Islamization of America til my dying day. We don't put pedophiles or slave traders on a pedastal in this country,and Mohammad was definitely a pedophile and slave trader. McCarran Act of 1952 needs to be enforced.

        Polio is an ugly disease that can be eradicated with a safe vaccine. No child or adult should suffer from it. FDR was a grown man when he had it, but it tends to attack children.

        As a woman I am offended by images like this and would ask you to refrain from showing pictures of women in shackles. This is much worse than any kind of sexual harassment.
