Re: Parliament to be recalled re: Taliban in Afghanistan

Tribal conflicts have been there for centuries, all that changes are the names of the groups.

Some of the reforms that were put in place, such as the abolition of the traditional burqa for women and the opening of several co-educational schools, quickly alienated many tribal and religious leaders, and this led to the Afghan Civil War (1928–1929).
The fundamental problem is that there is no leader in Afghanistan that has the sense of pride and status to be prepared to stand up for the people of the country. The leaders knew they could simply flee the country and live the high-life wherever they wanted to.
