A Washington Post-Newsweek account of the Taliban's disintegration after the U.S. invasion post 9/11 and the way they gradually came together to pose the threat they now pose. See the link to NY Times accounts of how the Pakistan Inter Services Intelligence operates behind the scenes to back the Taliban, which may provide the other side of the story how the Taliban gain the sophistication and support they need to reorganize. And the links to the failure of the Karzai regime that has played into Taliban leader Mullah Omar's hands.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
