Yep... kids can be some of the most brutal, if they are not taught proper values. One only has to look at our street gangs, or countries like Liberia, where kids are given weapons and literally terrorize the local population. And in Afghanistan, most of these kids have grown up as orphans, and grown up fast... Give 'em an AK-47 for their 10th birthday and they instantly become a man.. Ready to become martyrs for Allah... Something equivalent to Bin Laden version of the Hitler Jugend.. It will take years to straighten out that country, if not decades. Hawk
