#5  You willing close your eyes to the power of the Bilderbergers on the hill people?

Dear Zombie Hillary Lover, I cannot possibly comment on the Bilderbergers until we have been properly introduced. For that matter, who exists who could properly introduce even a single Bilderberger, with bloodlines that trace back no further than the Middle Ages, to people who had held that land for centuries before Alexander the Great paid his little visit to the region? Really the situation would be quite, quite impossible.

#3  Isn't this true even if the claim of ignorance is totally implausible?

With all those little villages up in the hills, where everyone including the imam is illiterate, and marauders have been raiding since the beginning of time... it's easy not to know what the ultimate cause of things is, I should think. But in the less isolated parts? You make sense there, Omaing White7048.

#2  Afghanistan is a honor-shame culture.

Isn't feigning ignorance of certain facts a usual reaction in these cultures, when acknowledging these facts would amount to a loss of face?
