A Taliban spokesman promised Tuesday that the insurgents who overran Afghanistan in recent days would respect women's rights and would not exact revenge, seeking to calm a wary population and skeptical world powers.
In his first news conference, Zabihullah Mujahid, who had been a shadowy figure for years, doubled down on the Taliban's efforts to convince the world that it has changed from the group that imposed a brutal rule on the country in the 1990s.

Well Trump believed them at their word too, and we now have several of 5000 released prisoners who are in charge of regions.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - Yep and Traitor Obama released 5 Taliban generals from GITMO for a deserter traitor and they are back in the fight. List goes on and on and on and we still haven't learned our damn lesson.

I'm skeptical. We can't fully get women's rights down here in America because of religious nonsense.
