Website of the week

I don't read Pashtu or Urdu, so this new website of translations of articles in those languages is helpful. Warning: It also can be a huge sinkhole for your time. (Hat tip to the Kings of War)

One thing that strikes me reading it is how predictable Taliban rhetoric is. I've always found the same with al Qaeda's commentary -- just poorly written, and I've read enough so that I don't think it can be blamed entirely on the translators. Can readers of Arabic tell me if al Qaeda sounds as bad in the original?
