I notice you do tend to put out a number of inane posts about things not relevant to the topic. Do you think that you are funny or do you just like to troll?

I thought it is a nice way for the afghan students to express themselves and it would be a good thing if more Afghan Children could have similar projects.

Its also good to see Afghanistan as more than a war zone, but also as a place of people with lives.

I thought the photos were fantastic and was happy for quite the same reasons you are. Why so upset?

Because of this

when you click on it it's photo a blind peron would see.........

It detracts from the issue that Afghanistan is more than violence and war.

Thats why I was annoyed.

I have liked afghanistan since I was little, I am tired of it being disparaged. Or its people.

You just ridicule them with your jokes - uplift them, don't disparage them.
