New Report from NEFA Foundation - "A Taliban Resurgence: The Destabilization of Kabul?"
By Evan Kohlmann
An exclusive new report is available for download from the NEFA Foundation website by NEFA Senior Investigator Claudio Franco, titled "A Taliban Resurgence: The Destabilization of Kabul?" Although the defeat of the Taliban regime in 2001 seemed complete and virtually effortless, the initial optimism has long since given way to a security situation which is once again seriously deteriorating. Over the past few years, the Taliban has introduced the sinister tactic of suicide bombing to Afghanistan, and maintains its alliance with international terrorists. The movement of Koranic students that the U.S. bombed out of power has undergone a metamorphosis. In his report, Mr. Franco examines the resurgent Taliban organization in Afghanistan, its new generation of leaders, and what its future intentions are--and, moreover, whether rumours of a possible split within the movement are actually credible, or just wishful thinking.
