That is an interesting piece that explains that it is much easier to be the rebels / insurgents, than to be the people responsible for the function of a country... :-O
I wonder how many of the Taliban Leaders are now saying... Now what?
I highly doubt that they are as truly religiously devout as they claim. I mean they are people and people are often driven by a desire for money, power, security, sex, etc...
So will they choose to stay the leaders of a small dysfunctional country, or will they work in pragmatic ways to play by international standards so they can gain more money, power, security, sex, etc...?
Especially since I am sure the USA will not hesitate to blow up any terrorist camps formed on their contested soil.

Russia's Gain?
I think the leadership is capable of saying things that ease some concerns. Whether they have the ability to follow through is another question.

That is somewhat I was thinking...
I do not see the Taliban as a highly structured or controlled organization.
More like a hundred loosely affiliated tribes...
