GRAPHIC VIDEO: Muslim men whip themselves bloody in Afghanistan.  Published on Nov 24, 2012 by RussiaToday - WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGES. Shiite Muslims gathered in the Afghan capital Kabul to mark the holy day of Ashoura. Crowds of men whipped their backs to commemorate the 7th century death of Imam Hussein, the Prophet Muhammad's grandson. "He (Imam Hussein) sacrificed his life for all Muslims, not only for Shiites, it was for all Muslims, and today we honour the sacrifices that our beloved prophet's family made for us and we mourn this day," said Ghulam Sakhi, one of the Ashoura mourners. The Shiite mourners congregated in front of the Abul Fazl shrine, where last year an attacker detonated a suicide vest among the crowd of mourners, killing at least 80 people. It was the country's first major sectarian attack since the fall of the Taliban regime. Saturday's commemoration events were held amid tight security, with thousands of Afghan security forces lining the streets.

Ah, it's up to them. After all, if the skin on their backs bloody, it was their backs, not the backs of other Muslims. I'll try to ask other Muslims about this.

Al Jazeera Correspondent - The Greek Resistance.  Published on Nov 23, 2012 by AlJazeeraEnglish - Greece - it is where Europe's civilisation and the very idea of democracy began. But today the country is in crisis; a crisis that may well destroy the dream of a unified Europe. A dream born out of the nightmare of World War II, a dream to unite different nations under one currency, has become a tragedy. Ten years after joining the eurozone, the Greek economy has collapsed, living standards have plummeted, hundreds of thousands are out of work and thousands more have left the country to find a new future. Many Greeks blame the European Union, and Germany in particular, for the crisis they are in. Today, almost 70 years after its military defeat in World War II, Germany is the strongest economic power in Europe and its political leadership holds the future of Greece in its hands. Al Jazeera correspondent Barnaby Phillips travels to Greece to discover why these two countries, tied by history and culture, are now locked into a conflict. Why has the European vision, designed to heal the wounds of the past, instead brought them back to the surface? And who is to blame - the Greeks themselves, the EU or the old enemy, Germany?
