I didn't know whether to put this here or on the Pakistan thread. I'll put the link here, and if anyone wants to discuss it I would recommend moving it to another thread.

Taliban wages war against girls' education in Pakistan
I didn't really get from the book (Three Cups of Tea} specifics about the Taliban other than that one time he had a reasonably respectful conversation with one.

The ones who pronounced fatwas on him for what he was doing (schools for girls) weren't Taliban so I didn't really know.
Your link doesn't surprise me though, Mellow. Thanks
