"The people of Afghanistan are a world away from the nightmare of the Taliban. Citizens of Afghanistan have adopted a new constitution, guaranteeing free elections and full participation by women.

Businesses are opening, health care centers are being established, and the children of Afghanistan are back in school, boys and girls."
