Washington Post: Kunduz faces tough resurrection after brief Taliban takeover
KUNDUZ, AFGHANISTAN — There were no computers, no projectors, no microscopes and no cameras inside the classrooms of Kunduz University. Outside, the school's tractor and jeep were gone. Taliban fighters had stolen them all, fleeing with refrigerators and even doors ripped from their hinges.
"We worked hard for 13 years to collect all this equipment," said Abdul Quduz Zarifi, the university's president, seated near a classroom wall pierced with bullet holes. "All was gone in one week."
When it seized this northern city three weeks ago, the Taliban did not just destroy the present. It sought to maim the future of Kunduz, too.
The insurgents torched local government offices and buildings vital to the functioning of society: to bolster agriculture, to build up rural and urban areas, to house elected officials, and to fight narcotics. They destroyed part of the electricity and water department and devastated police stations. Shops and businesses were caught in crossfire. The Central Bank branch was looted; other banks were bombed, making it difficult for salaries to be paid. The insurgents also used mosques and schools as bases.
WNU Editor: This is why the Taliban were quickly destroyed by U.S.-Afghan coalition in 2001 .... their conduct and behaviour guarantees a bleak future for the Afghanis.
KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

YOU CAN SKIP THIS PART(short joke)...
A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood. The next morning while eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbour through the window hanging the wash outside.
"That laundry is not clean," she said. "She doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap".
Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time the neighbour would hang laundry to dry, the young woman would make the same
comments.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: "Look, she has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this!"
The husband replied: "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
And so it is with life.
What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look.
Easy to discuss other people, their lives and things that don't really concern us.
Yet we tend to forget- our window isn't that clean after all.
Clean up your window with the WORD! (THE TRUTH.)
LORD, please give us the strength, humility and courage that we may work on our faults first rather than seeing the faults in Others and castigating them.
Have a beautiful Week !
