Taliban Seeks ‘Mercy And Compassion’; Woos US, Other Ex-foes by blamingthedevil: 4:06pm On Dec 13, 2021
Afghanistan’s new Taliban rulers are committed in principle to education and jobs for girls and women, a marked departure from their previous time in power, and seek the world’s “mercy and compassion” to help millions of Afghans in desperate need, a top Taliban leader told The Associated Press in a rare interview.

Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi, also told AP that the Taliban government wants good relations with all countries and has no issue with the United States, US.

He urged Washington and other nations to release upward of $10 billion in funds that were frozen when the Taliban took power August 15, following a rapid military sweep across Afghanistan and the sudden, secret flight of U.S.-backed President Ashraf Ghani.

“Sanctions against Afghanistan would … not have any benefit,” Muttaqi said Sunday, speaking in his native Pashto during the interview in the sprawling pale brick Foreign Ministry building in the heart of the Afghan capital of Kabul.


“Making Afghanistan unstable or having a weak Afghan government is not in the interest of anyone,” said Muttaqi, whose aides include employees of the previous government as well as those recruited from the ranks of the Taliban.

Muttaqi acknowledged the world’s outrage at the Taliban-imposed limitations on girls’ education and on women in the work force.

In many parts of Afghanistan, female high school students between the grades of seven and 12 have not been permitted to go to school since the Taliban took over, and many female civil servants have been told to stay home.

Taliban officials have said they need time to create gender-segregated arrangements in schools and work places that meet their severe interpretation of Islam.

They took power but are powerless without finance. The frozen funds is more important to them.

Any one who follows religion Christian or Muslim fanatically and to the letters will end up being at varies with the civilized world. The person will definitely act in support of terrorism.
Christians are luckier because of the reform done by Jesus and His Apostles. They read from different sources. If what Mark said is not well understood they refer to the teaching of Paul.
But Islam is not like this. Their holy book they say it came from God through Mohammed. They don't question, doubt or reason it.
