  1. Good evening, my uncle died there. He was my real montane inspiration. Therefore, when rationalising the context without emotions, the questions are:
    1. Who is training Jundullah?
    2. Who is financing Jundullah?
    3. If it was Taliban (as presented by media), how could these cave men know that there was an American of Chinese descent within the Ukrainian expedition (there was not any!)?
    4. The conditions there are very rough. That men must have been well organized. So, how could that kind of a killing group be able to wear local official uniforms and be equipped with AK47?
    Greetings of SORROW from Europe!
