    Guess who?  It is quite obvious that none other than the terrorist orginization Al-Qaeda has pulled off their next big scheme, with the succeusful assassination of the Afghanistanian peace negotiator, Arsala Rahmani.  I'm not really sure what you plan to gain by killing the symbol of non-violence and cooperation amongst groups.  This leads me to believe that the Al-Qaeda really has no motive, especially not a religious one, and instead prefers to just kill people because they have big weapons.  I mean I'm pretty sure it does not tell them in their holy texts to kill a man who has done no physical harm to anyone and is actually symbolic to the whole concept of religion.  Religion is basically about uniting people under a common greater power (generally god for like 75% of the world, although his name varies).  
    I hope however, that Mr. Rahmani's good intentions live on through those whose lives he touched in his conquest to make a brighter Afghanistan.  What is even weirder however is that Mr. Rahmani was actually at one point a senior member of the Taliban!  That would lead you to wonder why they would kill off "their own blood" unless he started going against their fundamental policies.  This will be a major set back to foreign relations between Afghanistan and the US because we do not want to get involved in their anymore because Congress knows they will lose all support if they end up in another war in the Middle East over a war that doesn't directly benefit our country.
