State the speaker of the following quote, "You don’t know the meaning of the word ‘liberating’ until you’ve done that, stood in

a roomful of targets, let the bullets fly, free of guilt and remorse, knowing you are virtuous, good, and decent. Knowing you’re doing God’s work. It’s breathtaking." What is ironic about the meaning of the word liberating and his concept of "doing God’s work"?

The speaker of this quote is Assef. He has become a Taliban official, and in these lines, he explains what he believes is the work of the Taliban. He argues that, by working with the Taliban, he feels "liberated." He also tells us that he believes his actions (murder, destruction, etc.) are the work of God. These statements are ironic because we do not normally associate the work of God with suffering and destruction. The statement is meat to demonstrate how the Taliban has twisted the ideas of Islam to its benefit.

Imagine you are casting a film about Queen Mab. Who would you want to play her, and why?
love history [14]

Answer:

Romeo and Juliet is a play about the conflict between the main characters’ love, with its transformative power, and the darkness, hatred, and selfishness represented by their families’ feud. The two teenaged lovers, Romeo and Juliet, fall in love the first time they see each other, but their families’ feud requires they remain enemies. Over the course of the play, the lovers’ powerful desires directly clash with their families’ equally powerful hatred of each other. Initially, we may expect that the lovers will prove the unifying force that unites the families. Were the play a comedy, the families would see the light of reason and resolve their feud, Romeo and Juliet would have a public wedding, and everyone would live happily ever after. But the Montague-Capulet feud is too powerful for the lovers to overcome. The world of the play is an imperfect place, where freedom from everything except pure love is an unrealistic goal. Ultimately, the characters' love does resolve the feud, but at the price of their lives
