No doubt that our planners have already consulted such people; it's unimaginable that a resource like this would be overlooked.
“You can say a lot about a person from an analysis of his beard”, according to barber Nazirullah, in Peshawar,
Pakistan.
Barber Nazirullah declares that “Osama Bin Laden is a leader and a fighter. He does not need luxury or
comfort. He is a man who can lead a hard life for a long time. He is not worried about anything else”.
Barber Nazirullah says that a man’s beard, in his culture, can speak volumes about his character. “You can say
a lot about someone from the way they grow their beard. Cuts depend on tribal custom and personal
preference”. He states that his family have been barbers for three generations and that he understands
intrinsically the psyche behind the beard.
“All Afghans have a beard. It is very important. You can only shave it off to go to a funeral or maybe for the
first night with your wife”. Regarding Osama Bin Laden, barber Nazirullah is certain that “he is not worried
about his beard like a young man. He lets it grow strongly and naturally. He is also greying, which shows a
certain degree of wisdom”.
Concerning Taleban leader Mullah Omar, barber Nazirullah declares that “I have heard that he has a good
beard. Some say that it grows a lot over his nose. Normally, religious people let it grow below the nose”.

Rocker and sadie -
I hope this isn't a hint at your defection krs. Maybe you would be held in very high esteem over there, but here, we respect your words as much as your beard.

Interesting: length of hair and/or beards plus history of religion and power - check history of Charlemagne - check further back, the OT...etc...
