Wow, I totally misunderstood the headline.
I thought that because so many people listen to that caveman that exposes alarming low IQ.
Thank you! Honestly, the backdrop is of course tragic but the story about these two is nothing short of hilarious. I would watch a movie about them immediately, like for example Ben Kingsley and Ian McKellen playing the two.
I don’t have many complaints about the Taliban, but I have a lot of complaints about him.” Levi replied that Simentov was “a thief and a liar.'”
That line is just comedy.
Wow I almost scrolled by but seeing the words Kabul and synagogue together was so strange that I had to go back.
Very interesting read, also the bit about the two guys left arguing about the ownership of the synagogue and even complaining to the Taliban about each other is hilarious.
'Take a bullet for you babe!'
On windows, hold 'alt' and then type the numbers 1 6 4 for lower case and 1 6 5 for upper case ñ.
That's their places in the ASCII table, you can do that with any special characters, look up their place in the ASCII table, press alt and the respecting number, release alt and voila.
Not OP but my nerves are definitely worth more than 20 bucks.

edit: nvm the next comment string answered my question
I read Solaris recently and was genuinely blown away.
Stanislaw Lem was a genius. I recommend also 'Fiasko'. 'Ichon Tyhchy' is also great, it's a collection of humoristic sci-fi short stories. I've been contemplating learning polish just to be able to read Lem, it's been said a lot of his word play gets lost in translation. Although I have to admit the descriptions of the geometrical forms in the ocean in Solaris where just too much and I skipped those pages entirely.
Everytime Kissinger is mentioned I have to think of this Anthony Bourdain quote:
"Once you’ve been to Cambodia, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking. Witness what Henry did in Cambodia – the fruits of his genius for statesmanship – and you will never understand why he’s not sitting in the dock at The Hague next to Milošević."
Bourdain is dead and that shit stain Kissinger is now over 100 years old. The world is not fair.
Especially when the palm trees are standing in the shadows.
