We have not heard much about Afghanistan lately but here is a recent piece. Pretty scary kids being able to go around and collect mortars like prized toys. But they seem pretty plentiful in the area so it should come as no surprise.
"It's just like picking blueberries," said Thompson, as he and other soldiers gathered the highly volatile devices. "The stuff is just scattered everywhere. There's another one a kid just found." At least it is being cleard up. Hopefully in another 5 to 10 years Afghanistan will be a nice country to visit again. http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2...260514-cp.html [ 11-17-2003, 01:24 PM: Message edited by: pritchke ] |

True, I just wonder how many kids will die in the process.
