GHAZNI, Afghanistan - The gunmen came at night to drag Mohammed Halim away from his home, in front of his crying children and his wife begging for mercy.
The 46-year-old schoolteacher tried to reassure his family that he would return safely.
But his life was over.
He was partly disembowelled and then torn apart with his arms and legs tied to motorbikes. The remains were put on display as a warning to others against defying Taleban orders to stop educating girls.
Halim is one of four teachers killed in rapid succession by the Islamists at Ghazni, a strategic point on the routes from Kabul to the south and east which has become the scene of fierce clashes between the Taleban and United States and Afghan forces.

I write often the phrase "school teachers with guns," when I write aabout our need to colonize the primitive world and create a universal "America of the Mind." I argue that the Western Modernity must impose itself on the world at large through colonists who live in other nations, who marry the locals, who use their lives as time to teach children the ways of Modernity, and that those school teachers must carry guns to protect the children from their local families and fellow citizens who object. School teachers with guns.
One thing in a long and absurd life i have learned without benefit of formal schooling in such things is that motorcycles do not have the power to pull limbs apart from bodies as described above. The procedure is thus: a man's limbs are chained to the motorcycles, and he is then cut at the underarms and inside the thighs to make it possible for the bikes to further rip him apart.
There are some things you just don't learn in school, and rightly so. School teachers with guns not only teach Modernity, they also teach that some knowledge is forbidden.
OT (yet quite related): D. T. Devareux has a new drawing on his blog, The Study of Revenge:
