The fixer told me that the dead woman had in all likelihood been tried, and executed for wearing jeans instead of traditional islamic clothing. The reason he was able to come to that conclusion, was the single gunshot wound in her groin. It seems this was a favourite way for the faithful to punish immoral women within their own lawless communities. Something to do with the slow agonizing death that this sort of wound gives.... I stopped counting after driving past, or standing over 43 women who had all been full-stopped in the same way.....

The second year I was working as a PMC, I happened to be within 70 meters of female suicide bomber. She not only killed herself, but if memory serves, about 12 to 15 civilians, plus another 30 odd wounded. Yes, a woman in full tent dress, turning herself and others into porno spaghetti, human rain is a rather memorable occasion.... This may also explain why I'm always edgy while sitting around Heathrow waiting for a connecting flight. Too many women in full islamic dress. Makes me want to sit with my back to the structural pillars, at least that way you have some cover....
