153  The Golden Line......The quick debacle of the Taleban in Afghanistan has taken many by surprise. The best predictions failed. Why? For a simple reason: at the start it was perceived as a war between Afghanistan and USA. But the war turned out to be both against an external enemy as well as an internal one. It was not at all a Jihad between Muslims and infidels, but rather, with an ugly dimension of an internal struggle for dominance added to it........By Syed Iqbal Zaheer.  (Shawwal 1422 / Jänner 2002)
