Dear Readers,
Opinions
expressed in various sections are the sole responsibility of their authors
and they may not represent Al-Jazeerah's. In particular, Al-Jazeerah may
not agree, approve, condone, or acquiesce any of the published photos, cartoons,
news articles, and opinion articles.
These materials represent reactions
of authors to American foreign policy in the Middle East, Israeli
occupation policies and practices in occupied Palestine, or policies and
practices of Arab governments and Arab rulers.
The main objective is to enable
English readers all over the world, particularly in the US and Israel, to
know about the impact of the policies of these governments on Arabs and
Muslims.
When people are more aware of the
consequences of policies of their governments, cross-cultural
understanding increases, which leads to a more just and peaceful world ...
That is the essence of the Al-Jazeerah.info Mission.

Five years after the US invasion and occupation of Afghanistan, people did
not benefit from billions of dollars spent on the war. Neocons used to
make fun of how Afghani society persecutes women and the Taliban keeping
them wearing burqa. The only change in Afghanistan has been more poverty,
more death, and more destruction. Above: A woman clad in burqa strolling
by a boy begging outside the Eid Gah mosque before the Ramadan Eid prayer,
