Idiot after wartime economies boom because infrastructure has been destroyed and needs to be rebuilt. It has nothing to do with the level of real growth but rather a testament to the level of destruction.

You're an idiot if you think this. Did you just see the same video I did, that featured a independent democratically-elected female MP?
The huge issue with ... ( 1 month ago by PauloGVieira)
The huge issue with the Taliban is they represent the antithesis of Islam. The Qur'an does not deny education to women, and Muhammad's own wives were well educated and engaged in active employment. Let us not forget that it was Muhammad's first wife that supported him financially.

What about half the population, women, that did not live in peace under the Taliban. Those that were mercilessly executed publicly under the Taliban for crimes like listening to music.
The situation today is nowhere near acceptable but is marginally better.

The American who entered Afghanistan to spread freedom and democracy as only the Americans know how call me arrogant! You need to learn what the rest of the world (minus Israel) already knows, that American exceptionalism died many decades ago.

Do you have a problem with basic comprehension? What does China have to do with the lack of security in Afghanistan from US-led NATO forces?
China certainly rates as poorly as your country but this is a video about the lack of security in Afghanistan stifling education.

your one of many sheep acting a certain way bewcause it makes you feel self righteous. you look at yourself as some sort of fredom fighter but in reality you dont focus on the real issues just americas.
