I've been hanging out with some Afghani refugees while here in France. All men. Part of me says, "Why did you leave the women and children behind and come alone?"
Then I hear their stories about how they got here. Walking for days with no food, kidnapped, beaten by police, etc...
Some have been away from family for years, trying to get accepted by some country.
One young man told me today that if he were in Afghanistan now, he would be killed.
It's hard to imagine what it's like to be in their shoes
