The balls have flags of all FIFA countries including the Saudi Arabian flag which has the word "allah" on it. The Afghanis call it "blasphemous"
Doesn't it seem like these guys almost want to pick up a reason to hate the US ?

It's amazing that anyone would follow people who say things like that.

Sadly, radical Islamists come from a culture of hatred where Danish cartoonists deserve death for having a sense of humor. Most Muslims are decent people who want to earn a living, raise their families, and live in safety. But they are saddled with violent death cults that no one can safely oppose. That is why the reconstruction of democratic Afghanistan and Iraq is so vital to the future of civilization.

You know there are Americans who don't like the fact that the US flag is rolling on the ground, too.
And the word "Islamist" doesn't mean anything.

Afghanis should talk to Saudi Arabia about that one.

It's the mental illness that is religion.
