Description
We had had a rash of infiltrators in burkas attacking units with suicide bombs. Kinda picked up one at the Bazar to see how easy it be to hide an AK and bomb vest under it. Kinda sick, the bad guys are doing it because we try to upload the local customs of not touching the females of the country. Allowing them the ability to get closer to ISAF forces and kill and or injure them.

if you ever get a chance to see the film "battle for algiers", you might find it interesting and informative. it includes a scene where french paras spot a group of "women" in burqas very like this one, and notice their boots.... and that was back in the 1950s. see: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058946/ there is also a very good book on that period: http://www.amazon.com/Savage-War-Peace-1954-1962-Classics/dp/product-description/1590172183 good luck out there.

Ironic how intended respect can lead to insulting behaviour by others...

Don't know how I missed this one. You look good in blue, Robert. It does get your point across about the tricks the bad guys use. It's the same thing that happened in Vietnam. You can't tell the locals from the enemy.
