Pashto and Dari are the official languages of Afghanistan. In 1980, other regional languages were granted official status in the regions where they are the language of the majority. Article 16 of the 2004 Afghan Constitution states that "The Turkic languages (Uzbek and Turkmen), Balochi, Pashayi, Nuristani and Pamiri (alsana) are – in addition to Pashto and Dari – the third official language in areas where the majority speaks them. The practical modalities for implementation of this provision shall be specified by law."
Afghanistani/æfˈɡænᵻstæn/ (Pashto/Dari: افغانستان, Afġānistān), officially the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, is a landlocked country located within South Asia and Central Asia. It has a population of approximately 32 million, making it the 42nd most populous country in the world. It is bordered by Pakistan in the south and east; Iran in the west; Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan in the north; and China in the far northeast. Its territory covers 652,000km2 (252,000sqmi), making it the 41st largest country in the world.
The War in Afghanistan (or the American war in Afghanistan) is the period in which the United States invaded Afghanistan after the September 11 attacks. Supported initially by close allies, they were later joined by NATO beginning in 2003. It followed the Afghan Civil War's 1996–2001 phase. Its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and to deny it a safe base of operations in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power. Key allies, including the United Kingdom, supported the U.S. from the start to the end of the phase. This phase of the War is the longest war in United States history.
Afghanis-tan(あふがにすタン,Afuganisu-tan, see note on name below) or Afghanistan is a Japanese yonkomamanga, originally published as a webcomic, by Timaking (ちまきing). It is also the name of the heroine of the manga. The manga is nicknamed Afgan(あふがん,Afugan)
Each yonkoma strip is accompanied by an "Afghan Memo" that explains in prose some of the background and history of the nations depicted. Additional pages give short biographies of the characters.

Afghanistan: Caught between drug cartels and the Taliban | DW Documentary
When international troops withdrew in 2021, the Taliban recaptured Afghanistan. The ‘forever war’ was over. But this documentary shows how western military forces were misled or acted on insufficient intelligence -- with fatal consequences for the Afghan civilians they were sent to protect.
The documentary "Winning Hearts and Minds” shows how western forces were deliberately misled and in many cases acted on the basis of inadequate information. The results were a disaster for the Afghan population.
In 2006, when Danish and British troops were deployed to Musa Qala in Helmand Province, southern Afghanistan, the mission was clear. They were to defend their allies, the local police forces, against Taliban insurgents. But this plan was based on a misconception. While the local police in Mus...

Are Women REALLY OPPRESSED In Afghanistan? I Was Shocked By What I Saw.
I knew my trip to Afghanistan would include meeting women and I wanted to know the truth about their lives. So much good has happened in the country with peace reigning after 40 years of conflict, but one thing is for sure, it's bad news for women and there is no way of hiding from it. Watch this video and you can draw your own conclusions. Mine are that whilst many things are good, this is one area that will keep this country internationally isolated until it changes.
I also take you to Bamiyan to witness one of the biggest mistakes the previous Taliban regime made back in 2001. And I seek out a child in need of a warm jacket.

Afghanistan-ல வாழ்க்கை ரொம்ப கஷ்டம் தான்😥 | Surviving One Day In Kabul | Tamiltrekker
Hey guys! Welcome to the latest travel vlog on Tamil Trekker! This video is about my last day in Afghanistan and how I spent my day in Kabul's only 5-star Intercontinental Hotel, located in the city's heart.
People in Kabul build their homes on the slopes of the mountains that fence the city. There are stairs to the remote houses. Unlike Ooty or Kodai, there are no roadways that connect to these areas.
Watch a glimpse of life in Kabul one last time with me!

Afghan women are without access to education. They are not allowed to express joy. They are not allowed to be filmed. I made the decision to not secretly film them. Out of respect for their wishes that were personally shared with me during our conversations, and out of concern for the safety of the people I was with. If you, like myself, think this is an injustice, you can contribute to organisations that are do...

In 2006, when Danish and British troops were deployed to Musa Qala in Helmand Province, southern Afghanistan, the mission was clear. They were to defend their allies, the local police forces, against Taliban insurgents. But this plan was based on a misconception. While the local police in Musa Qala were seen as the allies of the West in the fight for democracy and human rights, in reality they supported a brutal and murderous drug cartel.
Filmmakers Martin Tamm Andersen and Nagieb Khaja uncover this scandal, as well as the local police’s alliance with the brutal brothers Koka and Issa Khan. The filmmakers also examine a corrupt ex-governor’s hold over the Musa Qala police and how this man exploited western involvement to help his drug trade. Musa Qala eventually fell to the Taliban, as the population faced a choice between a ruthless drug cartel and an extremist regime.
The film reveals the tragic betrayal of the international mission that ultimately left an entire country in chaos.

Hey guys! Welcome to the latest travel vlog on Tamil Trekker! This video is about my last day in Afghanistan and how I spent my day in Kabul's only 5-star Intercontinental Hotel, located in the city's heart.
People in Kabul build their homes on the slopes of the mountains that fence the city. There are stairs to the remote houses. Unlike Ooty or Kodai, there are no roadways that connect to these areas.
Watch a glimpse of life in Kabul one last time with me!

Afghan women are without access to education. They are not allowed to express joy. They are not allowed to be filmed. I made the decision to not secretly film them. Out of respect for their wishes that were personally shared with me during our conversations, and out of concern for the safety of the people I was with. If you, like myself, think this is an injustice, you can contribute to organisations that are doing all they can, given the current circumstances. My favourite is here: https://malala.org/countries/afghanistan
While I cannot return to the country after publishing this, I hope the anger you feel for the injustices these women face - and the men who love and protect them, who don't set the rules, but are bound by the grim consequences of breaking them - will cause you to assist, financially or otherwise.

Pride and Fall: The British Army in Afghanistan, 2001-14
Sergio Miller’s new detailed account of the British military campaign in Afghanistan is based on the experiences of those who served. In this narrative, he explores how the conflict evolved and developed over time, from the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks and the initial invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 through to the withdrawal in 2014.
His talk will delve into the major episodes of the conflict and explore the challenges and successes the British Army faced, from the threat of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) to the major advancements in kit and equipment.

War In Afghanistan (2001–2021)
The War in Afghanistan is a conflict following the 2001 United States invasion of Afghanistan when the United States and its allies drove the Taliban from power in order to deny al-Qaeda a safe base of operations in Afghanistan. After the initial objectives were completed, a coalition of over 40 countries formed a security mission in the country called International Security Assistance Force in 2014) of which certain members were involved in military combat allied with Afghanistan's government. The war mostly consisted of Taliban insurgencies fighting against the Afghan Armed Forces and allied forces; the majority of ISAF/RS soldiers and personnel are American. The war was code-named by the US as Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Freedom's Sentinel.

The Complete History of The Afghanistan War | Documentary: Part 1
On Sunday 15th August 2021, after an almost 20 year-long absence, the Taliban recaptured the Afghan capital city of Kabul. As the US-led coalition withdrew, the Taliban regrouped and began expanding outward once again. Facing little opposition from the Afghan National Army that had been trained and equipped by western forces, they only grew bolder and began an almost Blitzkrieg-style campaign to retake villages, towns, cities and then entire provinces until they were once again in near-total control of a land that has seemingly only known bloodshed for the better part of fifty years.
The story of the Taliban is the story of Afghanistan in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Cloaked in Islamic ideology that even many of the most prominent Muslim countries have largely moved on from, Af...

U.S. conflict with Afghanistan - History and Timeline
The Afghanistan War 2001-2021 began in 2001 when the United States invaded Afghanistan in response to the September 11th terrorist attack. Most of the civilians in Afghanistan want peace and an end to the violence. The Taliban, ISIS, the Afghan government, and the US government are all fighting for control of Afghanistan. Some of the most significant events in this war were in 2001, when the US invaded Afghanistan in order to root out the Al Qaeda terrorist groups in response to the 9/11 attacks in the United States. This led to many civilians in Afghanistan being displaced, and in turn, many civilians became refugees. America also started to arm non-government militias in Afghanistan in order to fight the Taliban.

History's Greatest Lies by William Weir (Audiobook)
History's Greatest Lies by William Weir serves as a provocative invitation to rethink the narratives that have shaped our understanding of the past. By challenging commonly held beliefs about pivotal moments in history, Weir encourages readers to question the accuracy of the stories we've been taught and to seek out alternative perspectives. The book reveals how history is often written by those in power, and how myths and misinformation can obscure the complex truths behind world events.
Weir’s exploration of historical "lies" isn't just about exposing errors or fabrications; it’s about fostering a deeper, more critical engagement with history. The book reminds us that history is not a static collection of facts,
but a dynamic field where new insights and interpretations can reshape o...

On August 15, 2021, the Taliban took over Afghanistan’s capital, Kabul. The Afghan president fled the country. Almost all of Afghanistan is now under Taliban control. It marks the end of an era: America’s longest war is now over, and it lost. And it happened fast, stunning the world and leaving many in the country racing to find an exit.
But even among those surprised by the way the end played out, many knew the war was destined to end badly. According to some experts, the seeds of disaster were planted back at the war’s very beginning.

The War in Afghanistan (2001–present) refers to the intervention by North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and allied forces in the ongoing Afghan civil war. The war followed the September 11 attacks, and its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and denying it a safe basis of operation in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power.
U.S. President George W. Bush demanded that the Taliban hand over Osama bin Laden and expel al-Qaeda. The Taliban asked bin Laden to leave the country, but declined to extradite him without evidence of his involvement in the 9/11 attacks. The United States refused to negotiate and launched Operation Enduring Freedom on 7 October 2001 with the United Kingdom. The two were later joined by other forces, including the Northern Alliance.

Thirteen years of British soldiers in Afghanistan told through the stories of thirteen lives lost. The Telegraph looks at some of the tributes as we remember all 453 British service personnel killed in Afghanistan between 2001 and 2014.
The US began bombing Afghanistan less than 30 days after the Twin Towers in New York were razed to the ground.
On 2 October, 2001, Britain pledged to join the fight and just over six months later, Pt Darren George, a 23-year-old father, became the first British serviceman killed in the conflict.
Capt James Philippson, 29, was also among the first infrequent deaths in the early years of the war. He was killed by while rescuing ambushed service personnel without mission-essential kit.
His death prompted a row over insufficient and poorly maintained resources that would plague the rest of the conflict and seriously damage public perception of the war.
The death of Capt David Patton, 38, in 2006 ushered in a new phase, the Siege of Sangin, which became the most intense period of British fighting.
FS Adrian Davies was killed weeks later in the first of a series of accidents that claimed dozens of British lives. His Nimrod plane crashed in Kandahar, killing a crew of 14 service personnel aged between 22 and 49.
Each of their deaths - and nine more - are remembered in the video above as moments in the War in Afghanistan that represent the 453 British service personnel killed between 2001 and 2014.

On Sunday 15th August 2021, after an almost 20 year-long absence, the Taliban recaptured the Afghan capital city of Kabul. As the US-led coalition withdrew, the Taliban regrouped and began expanding outward once again. Facing little opposition from the Afghan National Army that had been trained and equipped by western forces, they only grew bolder and began an almost Blitzkrieg-style campaign to retake villages, towns, cities and then entire provinces until they were once again in near-total control of a land that has seemingly only known bloodshed for the better part of fifty years.
The story of the Taliban is the story of Afghanistan in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Cloaked in Islamic ideology that even many of the most prominent Muslim countries have largely moved on from, Afghanistan under the Taliban was always a land that resisted the influence of outsiders with tenacity, ferocity and always in blood. The attempts by the great powers of the world to bring Afghanistan more in-line culturally with the wider world perspective particularly concerning the treatment of women and the application of science and technology has presented an arena where the tools of the modern world have waged battles with the determination of the old. Yet almost every foreign power that has gotten involved with Afghanistan has ultimately failed in its mission there hence, Afghanistan becoming known as the graveyard of empires.

History Should Never Be Forgotten...
On Sunday 15th August 2021, after an almost 20 year-long absence, the Taliban recaptured the Afghan capital city of Kabul. As the US-led coalition withdrew, the Taliban regrouped and began expanding outward once again. Facing little opposition from the Afghan National Army that had been trained and equipped by western forces, they only grew bolder and began an almost Blitzkrieg-style campaign to retake villages, towns, cities and then entire provinces until they were once again in near-total control of a land that has seemingly only known bloodshed for the better part of fifty years.
The story of the Taliban is the story of Afghanistan in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Cloaked in Islamic ideology that even many of the most prominent Muslim countries have largely moved on from, Afghanistan under the Taliban was always a land that resisted the influence of outsiders with tenacity, ferocity and always in blood. The attempts by the great powers of the world to bring Afghanistan more in-line culturally with the wider world perspective particularly concerning the treatment of women and the application of science and technology has presented an arena where the tools of the modern world have waged battles with the determination of the old. Yet almost every foreign power that has gotten involved with Afghanistan has ultimately failed in its mission there hence, Afghanistan becoming known as the graveyard of empires.
In this the first part of a two-part special, we are going to examine the modern history of Afghanistan, investigate the origins and ideology of the Taliban and chart their rise and fall and then return to power. This is the Taliban’s Story. Welcome to Wars of the World.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

The Afghanistan War 2001-2021 began in 2001 when the United States invaded Afghanistan in response to the September 11th terrorist attack. Most of the civilians in Afghanistan want peace and an end to the violence. The Taliban, ISIS, the Afghan government, and the US government are all fighting for control of Afghanistan. Some of the most significant events in this war were in 2001, when the US invaded Afghanistan in order to root out the Al Qaeda terrorist groups in response to the 9/11 attacks in the United States. This led to many civilians in Afghanistan being displaced, and in turn, many civilians became refugees. America also started to arm non-government militias in Afghanistan in order to fight the Taliban.

History's Greatest Lies by William Weir serves as a provocative invitation to rethink the narratives that have shaped our understanding of the past. By challenging commonly held beliefs about pivotal moments in history, Weir encourages readers to question the accuracy of the stories we've been taught and to seek out alternative perspectives. The book reveals how history is often written by those in power, and how myths and misinformation can obscure the complex truths behind world events.
Weir’s exploration of historical "lies" isn't just about exposing errors or fabrications; it’s about fostering a deeper, more critical engagement with history. The book reminds us that history is not a static collection of facts,
but a dynamic field where new insights and interpretations can reshape our understanding. Ultimately, History's Greatest Lies serves as a call to approach history with a healthy dose of skepticism and curiosity, to look beyond surface-level explanations, and to always search for the hidden truths that lie beneath the surface of the past.
The book contains seven major chapter;
1. Introduction - 0:00:00
2. The First Lie We Learned in School - 0:05:49
3. Lies from the ancients - 0:32:43
4. Lies from the renaissance - 1:14:30
5. Lies from the time of the revolutions - 2:42:21
6. Lies from the american wild west - 3:30:31
7. Lies from just yesterday - 4:29:29

What was the purpose of America's longest war?

On August 15, 2021, the Taliban took over Afghanistan’s capital, Kabul. The Afghan president fled the country. Almost all of Afghanistan is now under Taliban control. It marks the end of an era: America’s longest war is now over, and it lost. And it happened fast, stunning the world and leaving many in the country racing to find an exit.
But even among those surprised by the way the end played out, many knew the war was destined to end badly. According to some experts, the seeds of disaster were planted back at the war’s very beginning.
Ever since the American war in Afghanistan began in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, the US government has struggled with answering exactly why the military was there. In the very beginning the goal was relatively clear: to capture the perpetrator of the attacks, Osama bin Laden. But almost immediately, the goals became murkier, and more complicated.
In this video, investigative reporter Azmat Khan and former US ambassador to Afghanistan Michael McKinley explain what the US military was actually doing in Afghanistan, what it got wrong, and why America’s long intervention there is considered a failure.
Some of the sources we used in our reporting:
This report from Brown University’s Cost of War project has good data on how many Afghan civilians have beem killed in airstrikes:

The comparison of American attitudes towards the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are from Gallup polls:
https://news.gallup.com/poll/1633/iraq.aspx
https://news.gallup.com/poll/167471/americans-view-afghanistan-war-mistake.aspx
This annual report from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan reconstruction provided us with a lot of information on US money and resources spent on Afghanistan since the start of the war:
https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/lessonslearned/SIGAR-21-46-LL.pdf
The Long War Journal’s maps on Taliban control helped us visualize how they gained ground over time: https://www.longwarjournal.org/mapping-taliban-control-in-afghanistan

What was the purpose of America's longest war?

On August 15, 2021, the Taliban took over Afghanistan’s capital, Kabul. The Afghan president fled the country. Almost all of Afghanistan is now under Taliban control. It marks the end of an era: America’s longest war is now over, and it lost. And it happened fast, stunning the world and leaving many in the country racing to find an exit.
But even among those surprised by the way the end played out, many knew the war was destined to end badly. According to some experts, the seeds of disaster were planted back at the war’s very beginning.
Ever since the American war in Afghanistan began in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, the US government has struggled with answering exactly why the military was there. In the very beginning the goal was relatively clear: to capture the perpetrator of the attacks, Osama bin Laden. But almost immediately, the goals became murkier, and more complicated.
In this video, investigative reporter Azmat Khan and former US ambassador to Afghanistan Michael McKinley explain what the US military was actually doing in Afghanistan, what it got wrong, and why America’s long intervention there is considered a failure.
Some of the sources we used in our reporting:
This report from Brown University’s Cost of War project has good data on how many Afghan civilians have beem killed in airstrikes:

The comparison of American attitudes towards the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are from Gallup polls:
https://news.gallup.com/poll/1633/iraq.aspx
https://news.gallup.com/poll/167471/americans-view-afghanistan-war-mistake.aspx
This annual report from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan reconstruction provided us with a lot of information on US money and resources spent on Afghanistan since the start of the war:
https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/lessonslearned/SIGAR-21-46-LL.pdf
The Long War Journal’s maps on Taliban control helped us visualize how they gained ground over time: https://www.longwarjournal.org/mapping-taliban-control-in-afghanistan

STORYLINE:
A U.S.-led coalition operation supported by NATO troops killed feared Taliban military commander Mullah Dadullah, dealing the insurgency a "serious blow," a NATO statement said, confirming Afghan reports of his death.
Mullah Dadullah, a commander who reportedly trained suicide bombers, was killed after he left his "sanctuary" in southern Afghanistan, said a statement from NATO's International Security Assistance Force. It said Afghan forces assisted in the operation.
A spokesman for Afghanistan's intelligence service said that Dadullah was killed on Saturday 30th March in the province of Helmand.
A second intelligence service official said Dadullah was killed near Helmand's Sangin and Nahri Sarraj districts, which have seen heavy fighting involving UK and Afghan troops and US Special Forces.
The official was not authorised to give his name.
But Qari Yousef Ahmadi, a purported Taliban spokesman, denied that the Taliban commander had been killed.

The War in Afghanistan (2001–present) refers to the intervention by North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and allied forces in the ongoing Afghan civil war. The war followed the September 11 attacks, and its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and denying it a safe basis of operation in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power.
U.S. President George W. Bush demanded that the Taliban hand over Osama bin Laden and expel al-Qaeda. The Taliban asked bin Laden to leave the country, but declined to extradite him without evidence of his involvement in the 9/11 attacks. The United States refused to negotiate and launched Operation Enduring Freedom on 7 October 2001 with the United Kingdom. The two were later joined by other forces, including the Northern Alliance. The U.S. and its allies drove the Taliban from power and built military bases near major cities across the country. Most al-Qaeda and Taliban were not captured, escaping to neighboring Pakistan or retreating to rural or remote mountainous regions.[citation needed]
In December 2001, the United Nations Security Council established the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), to oversee military operations in the country and train Afghan National Security Forces. At the Bonn Conference in December 2001, Hamid Karzai was selected to head the Afghan Interim Administration, which after a 2002 loya jirga in Kabul became the Afghan Transitional Administration. In the popular elections of 2004, Karzai was elected president of the country, now named the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.
In 2003, NATO assumed leadership of ISAF, with troops from 43 countries. NATO members provided the core of the force. One portion of U.S. forces in Afghanistan operated under NATO command; the rest remained under direct U.S. command. Taliban leader Mullah Omar reorganized the movement and in 2003 launched an insurgency against the government and ISAF.
Though vastly outgunned and outnumbered, the Taliban insurgents, most notably the Haqqani Network and Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, have waged asymmetric warfare with guerilla raids and ambushes in the countryside, suicide attacks against urban targets and turncoat killings against coalition forces. The Taliban exploited weaknesses in the Afghan government, among the most corrupt in the world, to reassert influence across rural areas of southern and eastern Afghanistan. ISAF responded in 2006 by increasing troops for counterinsurgency operations to "clear and hold" villages and "nation building" projects to "win hearts and minds".
While ISAF continued to battle the Taliban insurgency, fighting crossed into neighboring North-West Pakistan. In 2004, the Pakistani Army began to clash with local tribes hosting al-Qaeda and Taliban militants. The US military launched drone attacks in Pakistan to kill insurgent leaders. This resulted in the start of an insurgency in Waziristan in 2007.
On 2 May 2011, United States Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden in Abbotabad, Pakistan. In May 2012, NATO leaders endorsed an exit strategy for withdrawing their forces. UN-backed peace talks have since taken place between the Afghan government and the Taliban. In May 2014, the United States announced that its combat operations would end in 2014, leaving just a small residual force in the country until the end of 2016.
As of 2013, tens of thousands of people had been killed in the war. Over 4,000 ISAF soldiers and civilian contractors as well as over 10,000 Afghan National Security Forces had been killed.

Afghanistan ➖ A country I’ve been interested in since I first started travelling. One of the most misunderstood countries in the world, one that falls victim to media foul play and one that I seek to explore today.
As I continue my overland journey across India, Pakistan & Afghanistan, I find myself at the Pakistani city of Peshawar. I will make my way from here, 3 hours, to the Torkham border. One of the few land boarders that is accessible for tourists going into Afghanistan.
You will see me embark on this journey, get questioned by the ISI (Pakistani intelligence), get questioned by the Taliban and make my way to Kabul, to experience Afghani hospitality for the first time. Join me, as I explore Afghanistan.

When international troops withdrew in 2021, the Taliban recaptured Afghanistan. The ‘forever war’ was over. But this documentary shows how western military forces were misled or acted on insufficient intelligence -- with fatal consequences for the Afghan civilians they were sent to protect.
The documentary "Winning Hearts and Minds” shows how western forces were deliberately misled and in many cases acted on the basis of inadequate information. The results were a disaster for the Afghan population.
In 2006, when Danish and British troops were deployed to Musa Qala in Helmand Province, southern Afghanistan, the mission was clear. They were to defend their allies, the local police forces, against Taliban insurgents. But this plan was based on a misconception. While the local police in Musa Qala were seen as the allies of the West in the fight for democracy and human rights, in reality they supported a brutal and murderous drug cartel.
Filmmakers Martin Tamm Andersen and Nagieb Khaja uncover this scandal, as well as the local police’s alliance with the brutal brothers Koka and Issa Khan. The filmmakers also examine a corrupt ex-governor’s hold over the Musa Qala police and how this man exploited western involvement to help his drug trade. Musa Qala eventually fell to the Taliban, as the population faced a choice between a ruthless drug cartel and an extremist regime.
The film reveals the tragic betrayal of the international mission that ultimately left an entire country in chaos.

Hey guys! Welcome to the latest travel vlog on Tamil Trekker! This video is about my last day in Afghanistan and how I spent my day in Kabul's only 5-star Intercontinental Hotel, located in the city's heart.
People in Kabul build their homes on the slopes of the mountains that fence the city. There are stairs to the remote houses. Unlike Ooty or Kodai, there are no roadways that connect to these areas.
Watch a glimpse of life in Kabul one last time with me!

Afghan women are without access to education. They are not allowed to express joy. They are not allowed to be filmed. I made the decision to not secretly film them. Out of respect for their wishes that were personally shared with me during our conversations, and out of concern for the safety of the people I was with. If you, like myself, think this is an injustice, you can contribute to organisations that are doing all they can, given the current circumstances. My favourite is here: https://malala.org/countries/afghanistan
While I cannot return to the country after publishing this, I hope the anger you feel for the injustices these women face - and the men who love and protect them, who don't set the rules, but are bound by the grim consequences of breaking them - will cause you to assist, financially or otherwise.

Pashto and Dari are the official languages of Afghanistan. In 1980, other regional languages were granted official status in the regions where they are the language of the majority. Article 16 of the 2004 Afghan Constitution states that "The Turkic languages (Uzbek and Turkmen), Balochi, Pashayi, Nuristani and Pamiri (alsana) are – in addition to Pashto and Dari – the third official language in areas where the majority speaks them. The practical modalities for implementation of this provision shall be specified by law."

Sergio Miller’s new detailed account of the British military campaign in Afghanistan is based on the experiences of those who served. In this narrative, he explores how the conflict evolved and developed over time, from the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks and the initial invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 through to the withdrawal in 2014.
His talk will delve into the major episodes of the conflict and explore the challenges and successes the British Army faced, from the threat of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) to the major advancements in kit and equipment. The War in Afghanistan has had a lasting impact on the Army and the role it plays in the world.
About the speaker
Sergio Miller is a former officer in the Intelligence Corps. For the last 25 years, he has worked in the defence industry and, until three years ago, continued to serve in the Army Reserve. He has written articles for the British Army Review and the Wavell Room, and is the author of a two-part history of the Vietnam War: ‘In Good Faith’ and ‘No Wider War’. He is currently working on an account of the Russo-Ukrainian War.

Thirteen years of British soldiers in Afghanistan told through the stories of thirteen lives lost. The Telegraph looks at some of the tributes as we remember all 453 British service personnel killed in Afghanistan between 2001 and 2014.
The US began bombing Afghanistan less than 30 days after the Twin Towers in New York were razed to the ground.
On 2 October, 2001, Britain pledged to join the fight and just over six months later, Pt Darren George, a 23-year-old father, became the first British serviceman killed in the conflict.
Capt James Philippson, 29, was also among the first infrequent deaths in the early years of the war. He was killed by while rescuing ambushed service personnel without mission-essential kit.
His death prompted a row over insufficient and poorly maintained resources that would plague the rest of the conflict and seriously damage public perception of the war.
The death of Capt David Patton, 38, in 2006 ushered in a new phase, the Siege of Sangin, which became the most intense period of British fighting.
FS Adrian Davies was killed weeks later in the first of a series of accidents that claimed dozens of British lives. His Nimrod plane crashed in Kandahar, killing a crew of 14 service personnel aged between 22 and 49.
Each of their deaths - and nine more - are remembered in the video above as moments in the War in Afghanistan that represent the 453 British service personnel killed between 2001 and 2014.

The War in Afghanistan is a conflict following the 2001 United States invasion of Afghanistan when the United States and its allies drove the Taliban from power in order to deny al-Qaeda a safe base of operations in Afghanistan. After the initial objectives were completed, a coalition of over 40 countries formed a security mission in the country called International Security Assistance Force in 2014) of which certain members were involved in military combat allied with Afghanistan's government. The war mostly consisted of Taliban insurgencies fighting against the Afghan Armed Forces and allied forces; the majority of ISAF/RS soldiers and personnel are American. The war was code-named by the US as Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Freedom's Sentinel.
On Sunday 15th August 2021, after an almost 20 year-long absence, the Taliban recaptured the Afghan capital city of Kabul. As the US-led coalition withdrew, the Taliban regrouped and began expanding outward once again. Facing little opposition from the Afghan National Army that had been trained and equipped by western forces, they only grew bolder and began an almost Blitzkrieg-style campaign to retake villages, towns, cities and then entire provinces until they were once again in near-total control of a land that has seemingly only known bloodshed for the better part of fifty years.
The story of the Taliban is the story of Afghanistan in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Cloaked in Islamic ideology that even many of the most prominent Muslim countries have largely moved on from, Afghanistan under the Taliban was always a land that resisted the influence of outsiders with tenacity, ferocity and always in blood. The attempts by the great powers of the world to bring Afghanistan more in-line culturally with the wider world perspective particularly concerning the treatment of women and the application of science and technology has presented an arena where the tools of the modern world have waged battles with the determination of the old. Yet almost every foreign power that has gotten involved with Afghanistan has ultimately failed in its mission there hence, Afghanistan becoming known as the graveyard of empires.
In this the first part of a two-part special, we are going to examine the modern history of Afghanistan, investigate the origins and ideology of the Taliban and chart their rise and fall and then return to power. This is the Taliban’s Story. Welcome to Wars of the World.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The War in Afghanistan (or the U.S. War in Afghanistan), code named Operation Enduring Freedom – Afghanistan (2001–14) and Operation Freedom's Sentinel (2015–present), followed the United States invasion of Afghanistan of 7 October 2001. The U.S. was supported initially by the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia and later by a coalition of over 40 countries, including all NATO members. The war's public aims were ...
The Afghanistan War 2001-2021 began in 2001 when the United States invaded Afghanistan in response to the September 11th terrorist attack. Most of the civilians in Afghanistan want peace and an end to the violence. The Taliban, ISIS, the Afghan government, and the US government are all fighting for control of Afghanistan. Some of the most significant events in this war were in 2001, when the US invaded Afghanistan in order to root out the Al Qaeda terrorist groups in response to the 9/11 attacks in the United States. This led to many civilians in Afghanistan being displaced, and in turn, many civilians became refugees. America also started to arm non-government militias in Afghanistan in order to fight the Taliban.

History's Greatest Lies by William Weir serves as a provocative invitation to rethink the narratives that have shaped our understanding of the past. By challenging commonly held beliefs about pivotal moments in history, Weir encourages readers to question the accuracy of the stories we've been taught and to seek out alternative perspectives. The book reveals how history is often written by those in power, and how myths and misinformation can obscure the complex truths behind world events.
Weir’s exploration of historical "lies" isn't just about exposing errors or fabrications; it’s about fostering a deeper, more critical engagement with history. The book reminds us that history is not a static collection of facts,
but a dynamic field where new insights and interpretations can reshape our understanding. Ultimately, History's Greatest Lies serves as a call to approach history with a healthy dose of skepticism and curiosity, to look beyond surface-level explanations, and to always search for the hidden truths that lie beneath the surface of the past.

On August 15, 2021, the Taliban took over Afghanistan’s capital, Kabul. The Afghan president fled the country. Almost all of Afghanistan is now under Taliban control. It marks the end of an era: America’s longest war is now over, and it lost. And it happened fast, stunning the world and leaving many in the country racing to find an exit.
But even among those surprised by the way the end played out, many knew the war was destined to end badly. According to some experts, the seeds of disaster were planted back at the war’s very beginning.
Ever since the American war in Afghanistan began in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, the US government has struggled with answering exactly why the military was there. In the very beginning the goal was relatively clear: to capture the perpetrator of the attacks, Osama bin Laden. But almost immediately, the goals became murkier, and more complicated.
In this video, investigative reporter Azmat Khan and former US ambassador to Afghanistan Michael McKinley explain what the US military was actually doing in Afghanistan, what it got wrong, and why America’s long intervention there is considered a failure.
Some of the sources we used in our reporting:
This report from Brown University’s Cost of War project has good data on how many Afghan civilians have beem killed in airstrikes:

STORYLINE:
A U.S.-led coalition operation supported by NATO troops killed feared Taliban military commander Mullah Dadullah, dealing the insurgency a "serious blow," a NATO statement said, confirming Afghan reports of his death.
Mullah Dadullah, a commander who reportedly trained suicide bombers, was killed after he left his "sanctuary" in southern Afghanistan, said a statement from NATO's International Security Assistance Force. It said Afghan forces assisted in the operation.
A spokesman for Afghanistan's intelligence service said that Dadullah was killed on Saturday 30th March in the province of Helmand.
A second intelligence service official said Dadullah was killed near Helmand's Sangin and Nahri Sarraj districts, which have seen heavy fighting involving UK and Afghan troops and US Special Forces.
The official was not authorised to give his name.
But Qari Yousef Ahmadi, a purported Taliban spokesman, denied that the Taliban commander had been killed.

The War in Afghanistan (2001–present) refers to the intervention by North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and allied forces in the ongoing Afghan civil war. The war followed the September 11 attacks, and its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and denying it a safe basis of operation in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power.
U.S. President George W. Bush demanded that the Taliban hand over Osama bin Laden and expel al-Qaeda. The Taliban asked bin Laden to leave the country, but declined to extradite him without evidence of his involvement in the 9/11 attacks. The United States refused to negotiate and launched Operation Enduring Freedom on 7 October 2001 with the United Kingdom. The two were later joined by other forces, including the Northern Alliance. The U.S. and its allies drove the Taliban from power and built military bases near major cities across the country. Most al-Qaeda and Taliban were not captured, escaping to neighboring Pakistan or retreating to rural or remote mountainous regions.[citation needed]
In December 2001, the United Nations Security Council established the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), to oversee military operations in the country and train Afghan National Security Forces. At the Bonn Conference in December 2001, Hamid Karzai was selected to head the Afghan Interim Administration, which after a 2002 loya jirga in Kabul became the Afghan Transitional Administration. In the popular elections of 2004, Karzai was elected president of the country, now named the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.
In 2003, NATO assumed leadership of ISAF, with troops from 43 countries. NATO members provided the core of the force. One portion of U.S. forces in Afghanistan operated under NATO command; the rest remained under direct U.S. command. Taliban leader Mullah Omar reorganized the movement and in 2003 launched an insurgency against the government and ISAF.
Though vastly outgunned and outnumbered, the Taliban insurgents, most notably the Haqqani Network and Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, have waged asymmetric warfare with guerilla raids and ambushes in the countryside, suicide attacks against urban targets and turncoat killings against coalition forces. The Taliban exploited weaknesses in the Afghan government, among the most corrupt in the world, to reassert influence across rural areas of southern and eastern Afghanistan. ISAF responded in 2006 by increasing troops for counterinsurgency operations to "clear and hold" villages and "nation building" projects to "win hearts and minds".
While ISAF continued to battle the Taliban insurgency, fighting crossed into neighboring North-West Pakistan. In 2004, the Pakistani Army began to clash with local tribes hosting al-Qaeda and Taliban militants. The US military launched drone attacks in Pakistan to kill insurgent leaders. This resulted in the start of an insurgency in Waziristan in 2007.
On 2 May 2011, United States Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden in Abbotabad, Pakistan. In May 2012, NATO leaders endorsed an exit strategy for withdrawing their forces. UN-backed peace talks have since taken place between the Afghan government and the Taliban. In May 2014, the United States announced that its combat operations would end in 2014, leaving just a small residual force in the country until the end of 2016.
As of 2013, tens of thousands of people had been killed in the war. Over 4,000 ISAF soldiers and civilian contractors as well as over 10,000 Afghan National Security Forces had been killed.
