this has got to be one of the stupidest things i've heard..
he tried to avenge his half-wit brother against the lion? what an idiot. poor lion. eating the rabbits and deer is one thing, but why would they needlessly shoot the elephant?

Well Vengeance is one of the key elements of Pasthunwali cultural code, that's why there is so much tribalism and conflict because families are always avenging deaths. The lion had been living in Afghanistan long enough to know this. And the guy could've killed the lion but only injured it. He was just teaching him a lesson in Pashtunwali.
Remember this is a cross-cultural forum, you may not like other cultures but you can't make fun of them

Gotta be PC guys
