Taliban und Teheran auf Konfliktkurs: Streit um das Wasser | DW | 31.05.2023

In yet another disgusting move, #Taliban leaders ordered all schools and groups educating kids to stop their activities in Helmand and Qandahar province.

This is a new push to control non governmental activities and to prevent young girls to have access to education.

The order was sent by Moulavi Habibollah, "education" minister of Taliban regime on Sunday.

The Green Revolution -- in contrast to the Red

So the American planners turned to the most up to date theory. It was called The Green Revolution (as opposed to The Red Revolution the Russians were exporting). It was based on the new type of high-yield wheat that had been developed by a scientist called Norman Borlaug. And the development agenicies brought in 170 tons of the experimental dwarf wheat developed by Borlaug in Mexico.

That's one passage out of "The Lost History of Helmand Afghanistan" by Adam Curtis of the BBC, a fascinating long-read story of attempted positive US intervention in the 1950s.

Kabul: City Number One - Part 3

PART THREE - THE LOST HISTORY OF HELMAND When you look at footage of the fighting in Helmand today everyone assumes it is being played out against an ancient background of villages and fields built over the centuries. This is not true.
