Totally opposite of what I heard on a News International interview with several refugees and immigrints from Afganistan.

No conclusions can be drawn from a small survey.

There were even woman that expressed praise for the Taliban.

I guess those women have never been beaten by the religious police.

Thus for Pushtoons it is better to praise a Pushtoon leader that suffer at the hand of an alternative ethnic leader.

Is it your position that all Pashtun leaders are Taliban? Hamid Qarzai, a moderate Pashtun leader likely to emerge in any new coalition government in Afghanistan, may not agree that the Taliban are the only viable answer for the Pashtun people.
