Women and schools where just 2 examples. As I said I am not making any excuses for NA. They where no where near ideal either. But at least they where in favour of democracy. We saw Taliban ruled Afghanistan and how evil they where.
But I think what Afghanistan has now is better then either NA or Taliban. Lets hope they build on their democracy and end American influence in Afghanistan.
I really don't know how evil they were anymore or any less than any of the other warlords were; Kabul was subjected to a sh*t storm when those warlords clashed, many of whom then joined the Northern Alliance !
And right now the ANA is little more than the NA with a facelift & the Taliban already, are alleged to, control whole swathes of Afghanistan; I wonder what the future holds ! Some sort of peace-deal or again a repeat of the early '90s where different factions, different proxies & different warlords were butchering each other to no end before the Taliban were introduced by Pakistan.
Khair, enough of this ! Tell me about Iran; how are things there holding up ? Are the sanctions effecting daily life of the people therein ?
