Extinction is the name of the game, which is somewhat amusing to me to read that humans are the "culprit" in species dying off. Heck, they've been dying off since before we evolved from apes :)

The lab next to mine when I was a grad student studied capsaicin. They found out that receptor for pain = receptor for heat (hotness of capsaicin).

By the way, that's how Icy Hot, tiger balm and other creams work to dull the pain: by overwhelming the pain sensors with heat.

The world is full of amazing places, which are probably a lot safer than Afghanistan.

Tourism requires much more than just spectacular scenery - there's a lot of logistics involved (hotel, transport, food) that I'm sure are lacking in places like Afghanistan. :(
