Life under Taliban
2014-02-22
[DAWN] IT would appear that the Taliban are broadcasting on a radio frequency most Paks are not tuned into. And yet their message is loud and clear: our version of the Sharia, or else.

But the rose-tinted vision of an earthly heaven has little to do with reality. As we know from Afghanistan when it was ruled by the Taliban, it is hardly the model of governance most of us would like to live under.

#1  Funny how it's a universal that reporters are reflexively liberal.

Paki journos - "We deplore the Taliban and all they stand kill for, but we deplore those nasty Amerikkan drone strikes more!"

US journos - "We deplore that nasty capitalism, but we deplore decreases in gummint stealing spending even more!"
