Most interesting article of two western foreigners living in Kandahar, the heart of Taliban resistance. They report about he boredom of sitting in their flat, because leaving would be too dangerous, but also about the thrill living so close to the “faltline” of history.

They are describing the situation in Kandahar in a good way – I guess they have genuine insight and their blogs are worth while checking now and again. I just don’t see why they need to pronounce the adventurous Kaplan-like its-very-dangerous-and-we-are-the-only-ones side of their story so much … it’s like the expats living in Lahore looking down on those staying in compounds in Islamabad plus the terror thing. Rather childish.
