here are some of the things i have taken from this book:
- taliban — a pashtun name given to students who were students of the quran.
- how the taliban became a force of governance among the warlords of mujahideen. this is interesting.
there are no good men among the living, and no bad ones among the dead.
..learned that the dead become noble in memory while the living are inevitably compromised by survival in a brutal system.
