From a BBC forum with a representative of RAWA:
No, unfortunately they [ The Northern Alliance and the Taiban ] are both fundamentalists – they have the same mentality, the same ideology and it’s based on experience that we had during their time in power. We can never forget those four darkest years in our history – in many ways they were worse than the Taleban. There were kidnappings of young girls, rapes – even 70 year-old grandmothers. So how can we say they are better? No, they are as bad as each other – they are fundamentalists and that is why both sides should be eliminated.
I think it’s time to start writing Bush and the Congress to petition them to put a real democratic government in Afghanistan, even if we have to occupy the place until the framework is in place.
