[edit] POV: History

"On November 12, 2001, America finally took over Kabul City, and the Taliban forces fled from the city. Kabul was under a new Regime now, free from all the terror and war which destructed it for 20 years. Kabul is now in a Re-construction Era with new buildings, schools, universities and a new Government and is under the control of the new Afghan Government and the US Troops."

There is way too much personal bias in this statement. To describe a city which has been so horrifically decimated (it used to be a productive and modern place) by US troops as "free from all the terror and war" is absurd.

There is a lot of personal bias all over the article, not just in this statement, but I find this statement to be the most objectionable and offensive. I'm tagging it with a POV, to allow the main contributors (esp. whoever originally wrote it) to re-write. If it isn't changed or if no-one responds, I'll come back in a few days and spend some time writing it to be as objective and neutral as possible. For now I'm just going to fix the spelling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Qirex (talkcontribs) of 10.10.2005

[edit] Population figures

Who is changing the statistic of the population box? In Aims it clearly states that most of those districts are majority Pashtun and Pashtun province. I advice you people to put on your glasses and read better.--The preceding comment was made by IP editor 209.202.115.133 at 14:25, 23 November 2007 (UCT)

I restored the UNHCR figures for Khaki Jabbar District, and others, that had been vandalized by Anoshirawan on 26 July 2007[1]. --Bejnar (talk) 21:30, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
