Here’s Reuters on the savage attack of UN workers in Afghanistan:
At least eight foreign United Nations workers were killed, two of them beheaded, on Friday in the northern Afghan city of Mazar-i-Sharif after a demonstration against the burning of Korans by a United States preacher, a regional police spokesman said.
“Eight foreigners were killed and two were beheaded,” said Lal Mohammad Ahmadzai, a police spokesman for the northern region.
Over a thousand protesters had flooded into the streets of the normally peaceful city after Friday prayers, and after two or three hours violence broke out.
Then American journalist, Luke Russert, in a perfect example of the stunning capacity of those in the West to deny moral agency to Islamists who engage in brutal violence, Tweeted the following:
Luke Russert, son of St. Tim.
St. Tim--the man
who helped destroy TV news.
It was Luke's daddy.
That's Tim's baby boy,
training in TV investigative
reporting at UVA
--in a pool.
