Herbert F. (84) has been in a Taliban dungeon in Kabul for six months: the right-wing extremist blogger from Vienna had traveled to the Islamist country in the Hindu Kush despite warnings. He had wanted to show that, contrary to the opinion of experts, Afghanistan was a safe country of origin and that refugees could be deported there without hesitation - and proved the exact opposite.

The problem is that you have someone who the law always protected and never bound(ed). Then he takes the party train to a different kingdom where the law binds but does not protect him. Now he wants you to come risk your neck for his protection.

some of you may die but that is a sacrifice he's willing to make

Edit: is Afghanistan advanced enough to even be a Kingdom, not sure about the specs of the nomeclature. I know it usually means medieval...
