    Taliban new set up raise more questions than answering them. - What happened to the claims of making broad based Govt? - Mullah Haibatullah alive? - Most of these are under the UN sanctions. Sirajudin has $5 million bounty on his head. - How would the world interact with them?

    Higher Education minister Sheikh Abdul Baqi Haqqani puts it plainly saying universities/degrees have no importance. ~~ Imagine his views about women education! How would the world be working with men like him as Taliban seek recognition?
