The United States and the Taliban are holding their first face-to-face meeting since the withdrawal of troops. The United States and the Taliban have been holding face-to-face talks for the first time since Saturday, following the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan. A State Department spokesman said the US delegation would meet with Taliban representatives in Doha, Qatar, on Saturday and Sunday. The United States has been in contact with the Taliban since the withdrawal of US troops and took control of longtime enemy Kabul, and this is going to be the first face-to-face meeting.

After years of civil strife, the Taliban, a violent Islamic organisation, took over control of Afghanistan in 1996. The Taliban, a group of predominantly Pashtun militants who fought against the many warlords vying for control of Afghanistan after the withdrawal of Soviet troops in 1989, emerged from Islamic schools (madrasas) in Pakistan. When the Taliban first gained notoriety as a political and military organisation in 1994, they had already seized control of the majority of the nation and the capital city of Kabul, creating the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. The Taliban's administration was distinguished by the rigid application of their interpretation of Islamic law, which included the enslavement of women, the outlawing of music and television, and the severe punishment of dissidents. Only Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates recognised the Taliban as a legitimate administration.
For nearly 13 years, Hamid Karzai has been the President of Afghanistan, from 2001 December 22 to the present.Karzai first became President of Afghanistan after the US invasion overthrew the Taliban government in 2011, in response to the September 11 attacks. He won elections in 2004 and 2009, and is due to be replaced in 2014. Karzai was the first democratically elected President of Afghanistan.
The first event was that Jamal was playing soccer, and his sister Bibi went out. In Afghanistan, under the evil of the Taliban, under-aged girls aren't allowed to go out without an adult man.
First of all, the Taliban didn't exist until 1994. Some of the Afghan rebels whom the U.S. aided in the 1980s did have a similar Islamist mentality and some would go on to be supporters of the Taliban, but it's not technically accurate to call them the Taliban. In the 1980s, the Soviet Union was fighting a war to prop up a communist regime in Afghanistan. As per the framework of the Cold War, the U.S. aided anti-Soviet rebels in order to stop the spread of communism.
NO, Not when the taliban first started they abanded women and girls. *** You are not allowed to go outside without a man.

The problem with the Taliban is they hold a very extreme view of Islam, and they try to impose it on everyone, even those who might not share that view. For example, Islam does NOT say women cannot study, nor does it say women cannot go to school. But the Taliban are opposed to women going to school, and have burned down schools and even attacked female students. Further, the Taliban have expressed their opposition to popular music, and do not want any kind of popular culture (including television programs) to be broadcast; they believe only religious studies are permitted. Some Afghans, fed up with corrupt local governments, at first supported the Taliban, because people believed the Taliban would be honest, since they were very religious. But the Taliban proved to be eager to hold on to power, and willing to kill those who opposed them.
(Introduction) Afghanistan, a troublesome country, struggle`s everyday to put an end to the production of the illegal drug, opium, that is being produced everyday under the Taliban`s control. The Taliban plays a major role in the continuance of the illegal opium production by supporting, encouraging, and demanding the continuance of the opium production, which leads to violence with the innocent people if they don't corporate with the Taliban.(Background History) The Taliban, a radically militant Islamic movement appeared in late 1994, and controlled 90 percent of Afghanistan between 1996-2001. The term "Taliban" comes from the Persian and Pashtu plural of the Arabic word Talib (Seeker of knowledge). Subsequently, they banned female access to education and employment, and imposed draconian Islamic laws that called for severe punishments, including the stoning death of proven adulterers and the amputating of thieves' hands and feet. Despite their strict beliefs and anti- drug profiling, the Taliban could not resist using opium to fund its activities, underlining the movement`s poor understanding and interpretation of Islamic law. The steepest challenge is the burgeoning drug trade, which funds not just the Taliban attacks, but has created a general climate of lawlessness throughout the country with violence. Opium has been cultivated and consumed by human beings since at least the third millennium. Afghanistan has been affected by opium since the twentieth century, when opium was spread throughout the Golden Crescent (Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan).Due to this, Afghanistan is accounting for 93 percent of the world's opium production. (International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences, and Reins, Thomas)(Supporting) Over 18 years of internal warfare has left the country with extremepoverty, massive unemployment and little hope of an economy being rebuilt inthe near future, but The Taliban supports the production of opium by gaining thetrust of the farmers and civilians who grow the opium by giving out food, money,and cloths during the holy holiday of Ramadan. Once the Taliban gains the trustof the farmers and civilians, the Taliban can ask them to pretty much dowhatever they want for them. The lack of action to stop production is suspectedto be due to the opium industry's financial support to the Taliban militia. In orderto support the protection of the farmers and the opium, the Taliban buysweapons with some of the money they made from selling opium, to give to theirfellow Taliban to kill any militia. The farmers only see the money rolling in as theirpoppy crops disappear in wagons, which is promised by the Taliban becausethe farmers don't want to see the end result of their crop. (Willems, Peter.)(Encourages) One way the Taliban encourages the farmers to make opium forthem is they tell the farmers that if you switch your crops from wheat to opium,you can make more money and support your family better, but although the motivation behind the Taliban decision to allow the opium industry to flourish is unclear, what motivates the farmers is obvious. Over 18 years of internal warfare has left the country with extreme poverty, massive unemployment and little hope of an economy being rebuilt in the near future. The Taliban have also encouraged the farmers and civilians who grow the opium by telling them that they will protect them from the militia. All of this seems to work due to the fact that Afghanistan is accounting for 93 percent of the world`s opium production. (Willems, Peter.)(Demands) The Taliban demands the production of opium because without the money that they make from selling the opium, the Taliban wouldn't have as much money as they do today. Without the money, the Taliban cannot buy weapons, recruit new members, or even pay the farmers who grow the opium in the first place. If a farmer refuses to grow the opium, depending on how bad the Taliban need it, the Taliban will demand that they grow the opium for them or they will burn down their other crops or house, beat them, or even kill them. Because of this, most of the farmers do corporate with the Taliban because they don't want to be injured or killed. The harsh demands that the Taliban ask from the farmers do tire them out, which leads to the farmers not producing enough opium to fit the Taliban`s needs.(Conclusion) From this, Afghanistan struggles to put an end to the production of the illegal drug, opium, that is being produced under the Taliban`s control. The Taliban plays a major role in the continuance of the illegal opium production by supporting, encouraging, and demanding the continuance of the opium production. Only we can hope that one day, this will all come to an end.this was made by. the KoreanMaster ( Paul Wierzbicki) SO NO ONE COPY IT!
