Is there a “new” Taliban in Afghanistan?
There is nothing new about this Taliban. His words are misleading. There is a disconnect in Taliban speech and functions. Despite announcing “Amnesty”, the Taliban is searching for a house in Kabul. Kabul’s roads appear “normal”, but no camera is showing the terror behind.
What is the enthusiasm around the first Taliban press conference?
The Taliban is cleverly telling the world what he wants to hear. The guilty foreign governments are keen to give a chance to the Taliban.
Is Taliban’s Swift success signal mass support?
Taliban has a very limited support in Afghanistan. Rapid surrender was partially Ashraf Ghani’s unpopular government. A hasty return to American forces affected the morale and ability of Afghan forces during the extreme battle season. For example, the Afghan Air Force depended on foreign contractors, who left Kabul fast when American troops began to withdraw. The decisions made outside Afghanistan are also responsible for the Taliban’s success.
The Taliban promised to impose Sharia in Afghanistan? Is Sharia a better way of life than relatively strict codes that follow different tribes in Afghanistan?
Afghanistan is still an Islamic Republic. What is the interpretation of the Taliban of Islamic law? The ideology of the Taliban, partly Pashtun, is foreign to common Afghans. The Islam of the Taliban is extreme, intolerant and foreign. It has rebuilt almost all the Draconian rules since the 1990s. Evidence of land beyond Kabul suggests that the Taliban has not changed in relation to women, music, minorities at al.
Which parts of the country are the weakest at this time?
The Pashtun majority regions of the south and south-east are the weakest. Reports about attacks on artists and musicians are emerging from across the country.
Is the resistance led by Amrullah Saleh-General Dostam to start a civil war?
Everything depends on the tasks of the Taliban over the next few days. The civil war can only be avoided by the inclusive government. If the Taliban can manage it, perhaps this civil war can be avoided.
What do Afghans think about the role of Pakistan in Taliban success?
Afghan blamed Pakistan for being a sponsor of the Taliban. Pakistan provided safe shelter and logistic assistance to Taliban leaders.
Is India’s assistance and action enough in Afghanistan?
Afghans feel that India is only one of them, from many countries. Promised withdrawals are slow and danger life. Thousands of Afghans have visas for India, Türkiye, America, Europe etc., but are unable to fly. The Taliban’s check-posts are stopping the Afghans. India and other governments can try to provide a safe route to the trapped Afghans.
Where were Afghan women during the Mad Scramble at Kabul Airport?
The scene showed men at the forefront of clashes. However, many women, children and elderly were also at the airport.
When will the Taliban drop the dress of tolerance?
Taliban will show its real face when foreign soldiers and media leave Kabul. In the provinces, the Taliban has not changed its views on women, human rights, free media, or music and TV.
Which places in Afghanistan require immediate intervention?
Kabul has a great human crisis. People of the provinces are living in public parks. Kunduj and Kandahar have seen a lot of damage due to the fierce fight. The entire country needs help and assistance.
