1Opinion of the Court

POSNER, Circuit Judge.

We have consolidated for decision two petitions to review decisions by the Board of Immigration Appeals denying asylum. The petitions reflect the continuing difficulty that the board and the immigration judges are having in giving reasoned explanations for their decisions to deny asylum. See, e.g., Niam v. Ashcroft, 354 F.3d 652, 653-54 (7th Cir.2004), and cases cited there, plus such subsequent decisions as Muhur v. Ashcroft, 355 F.3d 958 (7th Cir.2004); Kourski v. Ashcroft, 355 F.3d 1038 (7th Cir.2004), and Mengistu v. Ashcroft, 355 F.3d 1044 (7th Cir.2004).
