File under: Taliban

#1 Afghan forces currently control or "heavily influence" 65 to 70 percent of the population, the Taliban controls about 10 percent in mainly rural areas, and the rest is contested, Nicholson told news hounds.

So its basically under complete Muslim control, regardless of affiliation.

But hey! We're not supposed to be concerned about that.
