Also four other children were wounded.The U.N. estimates IEDs and suicide attacks accounted for half of nearly 1,500 civilian deaths in the first six months of last year, the most recent statistics.

    Afghanistan is not kind at all to children. Most Afghan children have different talents for different things. But Afghanistan doesn’t care about it.

    For people to view your photos in a lightbox (like Flickr) there is a Wordpress plugin called : Lightbox plus. It will make every photo view in a lightbox mode. It is amazing. So when you click on the image it views in lightbox.
