The Taliban regime was ruling the government according to Wahhabi doctrine and they did not really used Shari'a law.the regime used a strategy of creating peace through fear; backed by enormous Saudi financial contributions. Thus, they promoted order and harmony using terror under the guise of Islamic Shari’a law. So, the regime used Islam as their political tool to achieve political aims in Afghanistan. Also, the Taliban regime never become a de facto or de jure government of Afghanistan, they were a illegal government. For instance, only Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and United Emirate recognized the Taliban regime as the government of Afghanistan, while the rest of the international community rejected. Yet, it is important to note that the three states mentioned above, their governments is governed according to Wahhabi doctrine and the doctrine plays a significant role in making norms and rules for the government. As you mentioned Serkan that the regime gave no rights to female education and they violates other fundamental human rights. Therefore, you must understand that Wahhabi doctrine is designed to violate women rights and minority rights. Concering Madame Meelash, i dont know why your blaming Mister Serkan that he is providing wrong information? i dont get it? What you mean that female education was only banned during the war? Lestin i am originally from Afghanistan and i can tell that they were aiming to violate female rights by creating a prison life for women and they were also aiming to eradicate the minority ethnic groups, especially the Shia community of Afghanistan. The regime was backed my the Saudi and Pakistani Wahhabi community for their anti-women and anti-Shiite campaign. Miss. Meelash, i dont know why your supporting the barbaric taliban regime, it seems that your not well-educated about the Talibans.

You say that one should not believe everything that is fed by the governments or their pet media outlets but at the same time you say that I should look at the official statements of the Taliban when they were in power? If I cannot believe what my own government tells me or if I can’t believe what I see on CBC, CNN, BBC, REUTERS, ABC, CBS, APF, AP, CTV, PRESS TV, NBC, CHINAVIEW then how can I believe what someone else tells me? So if the articles on the Taliban from these sources are incorrect what makes me so sure that other stuff are not incorrect? How would I know that anything is correct? Sometimes it’s better not to jump to such conclusions. The Taliban have moved from a position of government to a position of a resistance movement. They still release official statements on their missions within Afghanistan and Pakistan. They also release footage of their armed resistance towards American, NATO and Afghan troops. In one report it was stated that in one operation over 200 American troops had died. So am I supposed to believe this? And as for a little end note -> don’t come telling me this. Email your complaint to these news sources that report such things :) Well I like it that you point this out in the first place :) but I have a question of my own.

Most of the statements you have made about the "Taliban" are simply factually incorrect. For example, the Taliban government in Afghanistan were never inherently against girls education; girls education was banned during their war to take over the country and afterwards allowed as long as it was not co-ed. Even a few minutes of original research would show you this, rather than just parroting whatever is fed to you by your government and their pet media outlets. You can still find the Taliban governments official statements on the issue, the comments by Rehmatullah Hashemi at USC, an official representative of the government, and UN statistics which show a greater population of female students during the Taliban regime than currently. Your comments on Fazlullah ban are also incorrect, as that temporary ban was lifted, and it was clearly indicated throughout by his representatives that they were not inherently against female education, just attempting to prevent government-controlled schools.

The Federal Government in Kinshasa seemed to agree with this even if they still refuse to organise negotiation only with the NCDP and would like to negotiate with all the rebel groups. The leaders of the NCDP precised that direct negotiation with Kinshasa was inevitable, threatening to come back to the use of arms. At a national or a provincial level, let's hope just hope that the talks will begin soon...
