A Life Revealed Summary
In "A Life Revealed", Cathy Newman discussed the connection of two different pictures that were
published in the national geographic magazine. Steve Mccurry took a picture in 1985 that swept the
nation. The picture was that of a teenage Afghan girl giving a stern look to the camera. He had
captured the tragedy of war in Afghanistan and the beauty of resilience all in one. Readers of
National Geographic at the time were taken aback by the picture, as it is so powerful. Multiple years
later, Mccurry began a quest to find the girl in the picture. After an incredible amount of research
and probing, Mccurry found her. He asked if he could capture her picture and she gave consent. She

The Rise Of Taliban And The Crisis Of Afghanistan
The Rise of the Taliban and the Crisis of Afghanistan
The Rise of the Taliban and the Crisis of Afghanistan describes the journey and development of the
Taliban from its beginning to its end. Many sociological perspectives are presented by many
different sociologists. The perspectives are separated into different chapters and the entirety is edited
by Robert D. Crews and Amin Tarzi. The collective theme is the movement and process of the
Taliban and the development and decline of Central Asia.
The Introduction lays out a background of the history of the Taliban and its movement throughout
Afghanistan and other regions. The Taliban underwent cycles of both successes and failures. The
Taliban`s methods and motives mostly remain constant throughout their time. The Introduction also
lays out the primary thoughts of the chapters. Each chapter deals with different aspects and topics
within the Taliban and Central Asia.
Abdulkader Sinno divulges into the relationship between the Taliban and the Pashtun community.
Sinno writes "Whoever mobilizes the Pashtuns rules Afghanistan...Afghanistan cannot be ruled
without their consent." The Taliban has been only one of few who have been able to mobilize the
Pashtuns. The Taliban was able to do such "with fewer resources, less expertise in institution
building, and in a shorter period of time than others who tried and failed." Therefore, Sinno
addresses the question of how the Taliban was able to be so successful in mobilizing the

On October 9, 2012 a young girl named Malala was shot in the face by a group of
Muslims called the Taliban. She was shot because she was a girl that wanted to get an education but
the Taliban thought that girls should not get an education and should just be typical housewives and
cook and take care of the house. Malala lives in a city called Mingora which is located somewhere
in Pakistan, where over there they believe in gender roles and how the boys should get an education
and the girls should not. She wrote a book about her life and how she fought for education for the

Summary Of ' 1000 Splendid Suns ' By Khaled Hossieni
People in first world countries with privileges tend to overlook their good fortune and take
everything for granted. Women in third world countries such as Afghanistan can only dream of the
privileges and opportunities that would be given to them if one were to live in Canada, for example.
Recently, media had been continuously trying to stress this concept of privilege difference to the
Public. Attempting to amplify the amount of gratitude and thankfulness that people express for the
good life they have been given. The novel '1000 splendid suns' by Khaled Hossieni is a wonderful
written example of this, as it explores the lives of two Afghan woman and their everyday struggle
with oppressing forces in every aspect of their lives. Visual ... Show more content on

Hossieni's most prevalent examples that prove this theory deal with woman being forced into
marriages, and how it can often lead to devastating consequences. The earliest example readers are
exposed to occurs after Rasheed looser his temper on Mariam. The author says this "Mariam
chewed. Something at the back of her mouth cracked. 'Good' Rasheed said 'Now you know what
your rice tastes like. Now you know what you've given me in this marriage. Bad food and nothing
else" (Hossieni 104). After Mariam fails to cook a meal within her husband's standards it causes him
to react in an irrational way. However, the deeper meaning behind this act was Rasheed's anger and
disgust in Mariam for failing to bear a male child, proving that there isn't a sense of respect of love
for his wife. If their marriage was built on the foundation of love, then this would not have been a
problem. However since she was forced in the marriage by her father, she is given no such comfort.
Many people will read this passage and think that Hossieni is just over exaggerating to entice his
audience to read more, however reality is, chewing rocks doesn't even amount to the real pain felt by
woman all over Afghanistan. The documentary 'Loosing hope: Women in Afghanistan' By IRIN tells

I Am Malala
I Am Malala is a memoir by Malala Yousafzai that chronicles her experiences in standing up for
education in Pakistan. Malala spent her childhood advocating for girls' rights both in and out of the
school system. Her distinguished father, Ziauddin, encouraged her to take a stand and continue to
attend school, even when the Taliban decreed that girls were forbidden from getting an education.
Malala writes, "My father used to say the people of Swat and the teachers would continue to educate
our children until the last room, the last teacher and the last student was alive. My parents never
once suggested I should withdraw from school, ever. Though we loved school, we hadn't realized
how important education was until the Taliban tried to stop us" (146). On Tuesday, October 9, 2012,
Malala was traveling home from school when a Talib boarded her bus and asked, "Who is Malala"

education for girls around the world. By standing up for women's rights in Pakistan, Malala inspires
others to do the same in their communities. I am unlike Malala in many ways. I live in a country
where women and girls have the right to receive an education. In the United States, women have

The Musahiban family followed the policy of encapsulated modernization. They only focused on the

threat to the royal family, were liquidated by Nadir Shah. During this period, Afghanistan enjoyed

were rather effective, and enabled him to establish control over the domestic environment.
One of the most essential domestic successes during Musahiban was the Economic development.
The emergence of a merchant class for the first time in Afghanistan under Majed Zabulli's
leadership was one of those successes that helped Afghanistan to modernize its economy. He putted

Abdullah 's Team Accused The Second Round Of The Election...
Abdullah's team accused both the IEC and Ashraf Ghani's team in an "industrial scale" fraud and
argued that the second round of the election was stolen (Latifi 2014). They further added to their
argument that the eastern and southern regions of Afghanistan were hotbeds of occupancy by the
Taliban and people were too afraid for their lives to come out and vote. In Khost 97.09% and in
Paktia 91.9% votes were casted in favor of Ashraf Ghani (IEC website 2014). Abdullah's team
argued that that the eastern and southern provinces compared to the north and central provinces
should have less percentage of voter turnout due to the security reasons in these parts of the country.
However, the eastern and southern regions of the Afghanistan where Taliban were most active, these
regions had voted in large numbers compared to regions where there had none or low security
threats. However, Ashraf Ghani's team argued that the high turnout in these regions were due to their
excellent campaign strategies and the help from tribal leaderships on these regions (Trofimov 2014).
Tensions over the result of 2014 election produced an ambiguous situation that had no obvious
solution in the first sight. In the beginning, the two rival parties did not consider other options to end
their dispute except declaring themselves as winners of the presidential race. The situation was so
intense that each party blamed the other as the cheater and warned of the consequences over the

problems we face in America today. There were many themes found throughout I am Malala. One
theme I believe was most present in I am Malala is stand up for what you believe in and never give
up. There are many ways the book portrayed this. Standing up for one's rights is a main theme
because Malala and her father defended girls' rights to get an education, pursued with their religion,
and protected their rights from the Taliban. First, Malala and her father defended girls' rights to get
an education. They believed girls should be allowed to be educated as well as boys. Malala's father
was passionate about girls being able to learn just as well as doing the housework the rest of the
country believed they should be doing. An example of this is ". . . and whose ambition was to have
his own school," (40). He always dreamed of having his own school for girls, but he faced many
obstacles along the way. He never gave up through these obstacles and bumps in the road though.

History of Ethnic Relations in Afghanistan, An Outline Essay

Within the beginning of the 21st century, the discord within Afghanistan had been observed first and
foremost as a possible cultural battle. Pakistan and Saudi Arabia seemed to be bankrolling a Pashtun
takeover in the region simply by assisting the Taliban (Mujtaba, 2013). Then again, Iran, Russia,
some Central Asian states and India backed the fundamentally non–Pashtun Northern Alliance, to
avoid an entire Taliban triumph when the fundamentalist militia currently managed in excess of 90
% of Afghanistan's area (Mujtaba, 2013). Peace building initiatives after that aimed at the
development of a representative government.

principle death enmity allows men to retaliate whenever another man wrongs them, though the act
of revenge itself should not exceed the original wrong. The example stated in the book is, "a blow

did occur occasionally, but not nearly as much as it does now in Thull. Wife stealing was a major
source of internal political conflict before dushmani appeared, but men could usually peacefully

member nations are guaranteed at least one representative in the General Assembly. The Charter
established that the purpose of the General Assembly was to find solutions to potential threats to

General Assembly responsibility for appointing non–permanent members to the Security Council
and overseeing the United Nations budget.1 In order to fulfill this mission, the General Assembly
today passes resolutions that recommend actions that the international community should take in
order to address a particular pressing problem. Although the resolutions passed by the General
Assembly are not legally binding, they still have clout because they represent international

Since its creation, the General Assembly has successfully passed various resolutions in order to

practices: honorable actions in battle and proper defense of honor. Norms of battle includes rules
about who may be attacked, e.g., not civilians, or the proper distribution of war spoils. Honor is
given to those who e.g. show fighting skills. It is not unusual for women to engage in battle,
although more often their role is to support the male fighters by displaying their head shawl
(Paroanai) to spur on the fight. They also reject dishonorable fighters and reward honorable fighters

Shortly after the Republic of Afghanistan was set up by Mohammed Daoud Khan, the Afghanistan 's
presidential palace was attacked by a section of the communist People 's Democratic Party of
Afghanistan called the Khalq faction. Mohammed Daoud Khan was killed and his government
overthrown in the process of this revolution called the Saur Revolution. A man named Nur
Muhammad Taraki takes control of the new government that came into power after the Saur
Revolution, and he set up a Marxist Government. His government 's goal was to industrialize
Afghanistan and provide full equality for women. This enraged fundamentalists deeply, but Taraki
carried on with his plans. On December 5th of 1978, Taraki signed the "20 Year Treaty of
Friendship" with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics(USSR). This treaty was developed for a
few reasons. One, to strengthen the internal strength of Taraki 's party, and Afghanistan 's
international security and presence. Two, the Soviets agreed to undertake helping Taraki improve
Afghanistan 's social and economic achievement. Third, to increase the defensive capabilities of
both nations. Finally, to declare a twenty year "unshakable" friendship between the two parties. On
January 1st, 1979, Taraki began internal land reforms in Afghanistan that upset many long holding
Afghani families. This reform limited them to the amount of land they could own, which was
dependent on the "quality of the land". Any

Kids Hauling Water
Imagine a kid, no older than 8, walking through rocky terrain for miles carrying gallons of water to
sell for just 4 lousy dollars. The article,"The Plight of Afghanistan's Child Water Carriers" and the
video, "For Afghan Kids, Hauling Water is a Living" explain the problem of Afghan kids missing
out on school because they are carrying and selling water just so their families can survive. These
two sources are related yet at the same time they are contrasting. Both sources show a terrible and
rocky setting that the kids walk through everyday. The video shows very unsafe rocky terrain that

Amanullah Khan Essay
Amanullah Khan's visit to Italy: a study of the context, the impact and the events of the afghan
sovereign's visit in January of 1928.
Foreword: Amannulah Khan was the 13th Emir and first king of Afghanistan . A deeply
controversial monarch (both in life and in death ), Amanullah Khan was both loved by some for his
liberal tendencies and commitment to Afghani Independence; and despised by others for his
opposition to political Islam, and consequent disregard for the traditional rights and privileges, of
Afghanistan's tribal, military, and clerical elites . Abroad, he and his wife Soraya were most famous
for undertaking the first ever foreign trip for an Afghan royal couple. A three–month long journey,
which took the king and his wife, through ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In Particular, the monarch was keen to develop relationships, with foreigners willing and able to
support the development of his country . The overriding reason for the journey was political, though
Afghanistan had been recognized as an independent nation with the Treaty of Rawalpindi in 1919,
the British through their presence in India, constantly attempted to keep the country in semi–
colonial status. This was done by trying to limit foreign government presence in Afghanistan, and by
attempting to force countries wishing to deal with Afghanistan, to go through London . The British
Viceroy of India, Lord Curzon, directly noted that through Afghanistan was nominally independent;
it was "in our sphere of influence". By journeying abroad, and personally visiting the most
important capitals of Europe and the Middle East, King Amanullah wished to affirm his
independence in front of the world, and foil Britain's attempts to limit Afghanistan's foreign relations
. The second reason why Amanullah Khan, chose to accept Italy's invitation abroad was to try and
attract foreign investment and expertise into Afghanistan. The young monarch was keenly aware of

Analysis Of The Poem ' The Daughter Of The Dancers '
The Virtue Of Innocence
Innocence is a glorified trait in nearly any culture around the world. Many strive to keep the
innocence they are born with, and plenty others spend a lifetime attempting to regain the innocence
they have lost with age. In the following photos, innocence is a common theme, which each
photographer approaches in a unique way. There is a dull and unsettling truth behind the innocent
demonstration of young ladies acting much more mature than their age. Manuel Alvarez Bravo is
one of the premier figures of modern photography and the main photographer among the immense
Mexican artists of the twentieth century. In The Daughter of the Dancers, Bravo illustrates the idea
of youthfulness on the verge of loosing its innocence. Sally Mann, a photographer from the 1980s–
90s, caught a reflection of grown–up moves inside the innocence and youth of adolescents in Candy
Cigarette through her utilization of organization, field point, and technique. In 1985 National
Geographic photographer Steve McCurry went through Afghan towns concentrating on the evacuees
and recording their hardships. The Afghan Girl is a classical image of lost innocence; the girl was
forced to grow up way to fast. Her innocence did not survive, but she did.
The innocence of children is secured by the individuals who adore them with the goal that they grow
up as actually unaffected by preventable undesirable contributions as could be expected under the
circumstances. With her back to the camera,

The Rise Of Taliban And The Crisis Of Afghanistan The Rise of the Taliban and the Crisis of Afghanistan The Rise of the Taliban and the Crisis of Afghanistan describes the journey and development of the Taliban from its beginning to its end. Many sociological perspectives are presented by many different sociologists. The perspectives are separated into different chapters and the entirety is edited by Robert D. Crews and Amin Tarzi. The collective theme is the movement and process of the Taliban and the development and decline of Central Asia. The Introduction lays out a background of the history of the Taliban and its movement throughout Afghanistan and other regions. The Taliban underwent cycles of both successes and failures. The Taliban`s methods and motives mostly remain constant throughout their time. The Introduction also lays out the primary thoughts of the chapters. Each chapter deals with different aspects and topics within the Taliban and Central Asia. Abdulkader Sinno divulges into the relationship between the Taliban and the Pashtun community. Sinno writes "Whoever mobilizes the Pashtuns rules Afghanistan...Afghanistan cannot be ruled without their consent." The Taliban has been only one of few who have been able to mobilize the Pashtuns. The Taliban was able to do such "with fewer resources, less expertise in institution building, and in a shorter period of time than others who tried and failed." Therefore, Sinno addresses the question of how the Taliban was able to be so successful in mobilizing the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

She was shot because she was a girl that wanted to get an education but the Taliban thought that girls should not get an education and should just be typical housewives and cook and take care of the house.

Hossieni's most prevalent examples that prove this theory deal with woman being forced into marriages, and how it can often lead to devastating consequences. The earliest example readers are exposed to occurs after Rasheed looser his temper on Mariam. The author says this "Mariam chewed. Something at the back of her mouth cracked. 'Good' Rasheed said 'Now you know what your rice tastes like. Now you know what you've given me in this marriage. Bad food and nothing else" (Hossieni 104). After Mariam fails to cook a meal within her husband's standards it causes him to react in an irrational way. However, the deeper meaning behind this act was Rasheed's anger and disgust in Mariam for failing to bear a male child, proving that there isn't a sense of respect of love for his wife. If their marriage was built on the foundation of love, then this would not have been a problem. However since she was forced in the marriage by her father, she is given no such comfort. Many people will read this passage and think that Hossieni is just over exaggerating to entice his audience to read more, however reality is, chewing rocks doesn't even amount to the real pain felt by woman all over Afghanistan.

Malala spent her childhood advocating for girls' rights both in and out of the school system. Her distinguished father, Ziauddin, encouraged her to take a stand and continue to attend school, even when the Taliban decreed that girls were forbidden from getting an education. Malala writes, "My father used to say the people of Swat and the teachers would continue to educate our children until the last room, the last teacher and the last student was alive. My parents never once suggested I should withdraw from school, ever. Though we loved school, we hadn't realized how important education was until the Taliban tried to stop us" (146). On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, Malala was traveling home from school when a Talib boarded her bus and asked, "Who is Malala" (9)? The man shot Malala in the head. After a miraculous recovery, Malala continued to fight for education for girls around the world. By standing up for women's rights in Pakistan, Malala inspires others to do the same in their communities. I am unlike Malala in many ways.

However, the eastern and southern regions of the Afghanistan where Taliban were most active, these regions had voted in large numbers compared to regions where there had none or low security threats.

  • 55. The Kite Runner By Khaled Hosseini As a child, we are often told that we can be whatever we want when we grow up. Each child has the potential to be a police officer, a firefighter, or an astronaut. Although every destination in life is reachable, depending on the environment of the child, one might have to work harder than the other in order to reach it. Each environment creates a pathway of right or wrong in what the child should believe in, become, and achieve. In the Kite Runner, Khaled Hosseini tells the story of a young Afghan boy, Amir, whose childhood interactions with his father and his Pashtun culture shapes his moral compass. He is especially influenced by the pride he desires to achieve by fulfilling his father 's expectations as well as Pashtunwali, the set of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The expectations of "Amir" pile up as Baba begins wanting his heir to become more and more like he was. However, throughout Amir's life, he has always known Baba believed "there is something missing in [him]" (Hosseini 17). Amir has always known he was never able to match the expectations of his father and was never able to feel the sense of "namoos" or pride that he has always dreamt of. This creates a pathway filled with feelings of worthlessness and shame. The largest strike towards his namoos happens in his childhood; with Amir stating in the beginning of the book, " I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975"(Hosseini 1). That very day, Amir scars the honor and pride of his best friend Hassan by letting him be raped, for "Hassan was the price [he] had to pay, the lamb [he] had to slay, to win Baba"(Hosseini 65). As Amir ran away from this incident, "[he] actually aspired to cowardice." By stating that "I became what I am today at the age of twelve," Amir is is emphasizing the fact that he never let go of what happened in his past; letting his childhood shape a path taking him all the way to where he is now. As Amir is fleeing this incident, Khaled Hosseini efficiently uses the words "I actually aspired to cowardice" to indicate that Amir believed his actions were worse than that of being cowardly; that Amir did something even worse than denouncing the Pashtun ...

Essay The Taliban and Afghanistan The Taliban and Afghanistan Afghanistan followed the same fate as dozens of formerly Soviet–occupied countries after the collapse of Moscow's Marxist government in 1991. Islamic factions, which had united to expel the Russian occupiers in 1992, began to fight among themselves when it became apparent that post– communist coalition governments could not overcome the deep–rooted ethnic and religious differences of the members.

Non–religious music, cassette tapes, TV and movies are all banned. Multi–colored signs are prohibited. White socks are forbidden (either because they are considered a sexual lure or because they resemble Afghanistan's flag). Children cannot fly kites, play chess or play with the pigeons since it distracts them from their religious studies. Men must wear beards or face prison until their shaven whiskers grow back. Paper bags are banned since the paper might have been recycled from old Korans and lower level windows must be blackened to prevent males from inadvertently catching women in compromising states. In order to guarantee that men and women observe the new rules, the Taliban have employed a moral police force (Agents for the Preservation of Virtue and Elimination of Vice) to search for violators. The purported brutal treatment of offenders by the moral police has led Amnesty International to classify the conduct a "reign of terror."

Manuel Alvarez Bravo is one of the premier figures of modern photography and the main photographer among the immense Mexican artists of the twentieth century.
