#2 "Frans said the International Assistance Mission, the longest serving nongovernmental organization operating in Afghanistan, is registered as a nonprofit Christian organization but does not proselytize."

Carrying Bibles, let alone proselytizing would indeed be inadvisable in Afghanistan. But that's not because these actions would be morally wrong in any way.

Not discussing religion in Afghanistan is good pragmatical advice because Afghan/Islamic culture is intolerant, bigoted and murderous, and for no other reason.

In a sane world the Afghan people would have been forced, at gun point, to show some minimal tolerance and decency after 'liberation' from the Taliban, but, alas, this is not a sane world.

#3 A. Isn't it illegal to carry Bibles in some Islamic countries?

B. I am beginning to wonder if this wasn't a set up? They took a route more than likely based off, "local intelligence."
C. Due to the route they took, and the way some stories sound, it is like they were, "stalked."
D. They were foreigners, but more than any thing, they were Christian. One step below Jewish on the hate scale.
E. Based on the above, perfect, justifiable murder and theft for them.
