Tell me what is the economic plan the Taliban have for Afghanistan ?
That is it though it is not culture. The beard growing thing is Islamic to them. Islamic fundametalism is a problem and has nothing to do with culture. It is not accetable because it leads to death and violence. Are blasphemy laws part of Pakistani culture and should they be respected ? Have you been reading that thread btw ? Look at what some of the people that are being accused of it did.
But if the Talibans are sheltering the terrorists who attacked the twin towers, the Americans have every right to attack them.
Miss Ridley and others convert to islam to escape execution. The taliban gives them a choice of conversion or execution. I am pretty sure she would have forgotten about islam as soon as she got released. Just check the latest Norweigean journalist's documentary on Taliban.
trust me growing beard was not such a big issue for people despite the fact that they used to get beaten by the taliban. there were other things that makes the taliban anti afghanistan.
Also she describes the treatment she recieved from the Taliban as very good.
maybe they wanted to treat her very differently to reverse their actual reputation

I am not sure why we need to show this kind of sympathy to US Soldiers or Soldiers of any other country (Showing that kind of love for our own soldiers is understandable)
Well it has to be mutual.Sadly, I've seen enough comments to CNN to realize how bigoted some people are.Even on flood news there were thousand of commentators saying stuff like i hope more muslims die etc.So please don't give me a lecture about morality.It goes both ways.It's called Human emotion buddy, people feel bad when other human beings suffer, regardless of what country they come from.
Why did we show sympathy when the floods ravaged Pakistan and send our money and US Soldiers (Who are probably hated there) to help rescue and feed your countrymen. We could have simply said "good riddance" like some people here said a few posts before and gone on with our lives.
