RULES COMMITTEE Taliban
In a Web exclusive, Newsweek unearths a nine-page Taliban rule book that lays out all of the dos and don'ts of Afghanistan's former (and future?) occupying orthodox Islamist force. It doesn't quite insist that mujahideen must wear 37 pieces of flair, but it's close.
As Christopher Dickey explains, "It speaks volumes about the Taliban: their strategy, their following, their potential virtues, and their persistent vices, and the full text is well worth reading."
That is, if you have the time. We've selected a handful of edicts and offered simple interpretations—full rundown after the jump.
