@ Saantiago:
When you called the guntooters morons, well at that point I just wanted to say to you thanks for agreeing with me. And when you said correctly that they do have aright, well if you were correct, you' ld sound exactly like the guy in the second panel here:

Theres a problem though, you' re not even right about that.
They would be within their rights to clear them away. Do you know how far a stray bullet can travel? Allow me to explain. The President's security has the right to clear something like 4 km sq from the air space of wherever the President is. If they can manage that then clearing the ground space around the president from guntoting yokels would be perfectly acceptable, regardless of what their skin colour would be. Wherever the President of the United States is within America, becomes Federal Territory and State laws no longer apply. So yeah the Prez's security detail would be able to clear the ground of any gun toting fools.
Anyway I'm back from holiday:
And as a neighbour of Afghanistan, hosting millions of Afghan refugees, I can inform you that Afghans are a bunch of Assholes. They probably would celebrate the destruction of the last piece of matter in the territory they controlled. They're vindictive and asshole-ish that way. But its ok, they' re proud of that asshole streak within themselves. They take pride in their acts of destruction.

Plus I want to give Ted props for not portraying the Afghans as the heroes or victims in this cartoon. Its Afghans who do most of the killing of their fellow Afghans. The Americans as foreigners, aren't supposed to make any contribution to destruction. But for their slight demonstrations of firepower they get blamed for all of it.
Poor Poor Americans. I sincerely feel sorry for them. Especially that nice guy in the White House, who I wish to only see healthy and well.
Sincerely

Great so now we are subjected to lectures on proper display of a firearm from someone in Pakistan. That's like being lectured to by a democrat to pay your taxes.
I really hope everything Y_S said is tongue in cheek...
@ Anon 4:12: When it comes to the whole firearms-dsiplay-thing; lets just say it comes from experience of a slightly unwanted kind. We live on a major guns and drugs smuggling route. Here:
Stolen US Arms Flood Markets
That story covers geo-politics, and official Afghan unreliability
@ Anon 5:41: The tongue is half-in-cheek

This cartoon is a fraud – there are no Afghans left.
