Taliban Rules, Decrees, Laws and Prohibitions - 1996

[Tuahaa]

The result of a strong law is stability and a non-violent society. Taliban claims to be following Sharia law- if their so-called-sharia was the real thing, we would see violence and instability in Saudi Arabia...

I agree with above posters- education is the key. We need to tell the people of Afghanistan and tribal areas of Pakistan what Taliban is doing is, in no way, Islamic!

"Khushali" is the key to better living, religious mantra only works when people are happy and are providing for their families. Where we go wrong is that we try to substitute this life for the afterlife. The reason Saudi Arabia has so called law and order is because their populace is well fed. The difference a subdued populace with money rather than force makes is enormous. Even now you will see the younger generations bringing change to the states as we speak. The biggest step will be the ability for women to drive. The world has spoken and people who want to move forward are listening.

So by fighting taliban we can eliminate them? If you think we can than make your attempt. Hopefully this will work in some part of time in the future.

Areesh, ask yourself if you would want anyone you love, or yourself, to live under the Taliban for even a few days. If the answer is no, then think of the people who have to bear them while negotiations are going on. think of the people who have to bear them if the Taliban reaches a consensus with the government.

Fighting them with military might alone wont eliminate them. but at the same time going into dialogue with them also means conceding some ground to them. and all the while they will regroup, gain strength, and then break the agreement reached. Isn't that what happened in Swat when GoP negotiated with the Taliban? The result was a failure, and many suffered under them.

Negotiations with these brutes will never result in any viable solution. they are absolute in their demand of a medieval intolerant society. do u think its possible to convince them to be more tolerant? is it worth the risk of subjugating innocents to their barbarism?

The only solution is to keep fighting, all the while eliminating their support at grassroots levels by improving education, monitoring religious places and madrassas where they recruit, and empowering the locals.
