I was reading Lone Survivor recently, when I came across this passage and fell out laughing.

"The poor Afghan people realized too late what they had done: handed over the entire country to a group of bearded lunatics who were trying to inflict upon them nothing but stark human misery and who controlled every move they made under their brutal, repressive, draconian rule."

I think you all know who this reminds us of.

Man, do you ralize Talibans ban alcohol?

[GavJ]

True that. I may fling dwarves into volcanos just so they can telepathically tell me how deep they are. But I would NEVER deny them booze.

They seem to be pretty lenient about opium and the like, and beer is basically the dwarven equivalent of that.

Actually the Taliban punished people gruesomely for growing opium. It's the reason heroin made such a MASSIVE come back after they were taken out of power by the US military. Now Afghanistan is the world's breadbasket of opiates again.

And now that the Taliban are desperate they grow opium themselves for funds.

Look, both the Taliban and the dwarves are under the influence.
It just happens to be different influences.

We all know dwarves love booze.
And I think that we can all figure out what citizens of a country with an entire region that's called the
Hindu Kush
enjoy.

Also, I feel like this is getting off topic, or, at least, away from the thing I posted.

Urist McTaliban mandates the production of Opium!
Urist McTaliban forbids production of Alcohol!

Urist McTaliban cancels issuing mandate: has detonated.

Your fortress has detonated to its end.
