LANDIKOTAL: A barber shop was partially damaged when a homemade bomb planted by unidentified assailants went off in Landikotal Bazaar, Khyber Agency on Sunday. Nadir Khan, the owner, said that he was inside his shop, tending a customer, when the explosion occurred. He said he has no personal disputes with anyone. An official of the paramilitary troops, Tika Khan, said that it was a low intensity homemade bomb which did not cause much damage. “Only the door and windows of the shop were damaged,” the official added. Few people were around the shop and no one was injured, he said. The police said that suspected militants might be involved because they are against people who shave their beards.

lol.....militants are against shaving....hmm...hahahaha.LOL.......OMG!
I have one question for the militants;
Do I become less dearer to god every Monday just because I shave on Mondays?
If yes (as it certainly looks like), that must be one truly dumb god!
Talibans: Will you shave the beards again?...just trying to solve the mystery, you see:)
