S.2 Q.3 Culture Differences Blog #3

An article in the New York Times talks about culture difference or more based on two culture rivalries called Two Taliban Are Killed in Revenge by Afghans. Sadly two Taliban were assassinated by Afghans. They were wounded and when they were captured instead of being turned in they were trussed onto the tree, punched, and kicked to death this all occur in eastern Afghanistan. They said that revenged in Afghanistan is unusual. A local tribal elder said that a mob took them to a hideout and he also said, “The people punched them with their fists and kicked them with their legs and whatever they had in their hand” until they were dead. Apparently to Mr. Khan when the people get angry they keep going and they don’t stop so they kept kicking them with all their force until they were declared dead. Sadly they didn’t think at all and brutally hit them till their last breath.
