What Was Kabul Like Under Taliban Control? (1996)
Starving to Death (1996): A report on Kabul's desperate attempt to keep their city from Taliban rule and destruction.
Subscribe to Journeyman here: kzread.info_c...
The city has been levelled by bombs; children are horrifically injured by landmines on the street; people are poising their families, rather than face a slow death by starvation. Kabul is at breaking point - surrounded by Taliban forces, the city and its people are on the brink of destruction. Their only hope of survival is Defence Minister, Ahmad Shah Massoud, famous leading the resistance against Soviet occupation and winning against all odds. Yet unlike the 80s, international aid and interest in Afghanistan has all but disappeared, leaving Massoud to fight the Taliban with limited resources. ABC Australia speaks to Massoud, and profiles a city on the brink of collapse.

We lost this war two days before it started, on September 9th 2001. The day Ahmad Shah Massoud died, we lost this war. God save Afghanistan, and all its brave people.

2021 The Taliban: We're back bois
Very informative, the winter looked freezing. You could see here which looked like they'd be the losing side and which one the winning side.
this man was second to none and he helpped every single Afghanistani when he was alive, he helpped defend inch inch of Afghanistan from Russians, Arabs, Panjabis and Pakistani Pashtuns. he defended Islam through out his life and i think that's the biggest mistake he did. Arabs do not like when a Persian defends Islam even though Ahmad Shah Massoud was 100% sunni muslim.

Massoud killed a lot of afghans. His officers tortured and killed afghans. He’s not a hero of your fantasies.
This guy is for REAL! future prime minister! but was cut short..
I'm sure you'd like a simple answer to Afghanistan's problems, and in a way, there is one. The Great Game between Russia and Britain dragged Afghanistan into a proxy war over 100 years ago, and it's never been the same since. So really, the British Empire started this. But really, things didn't truly fall apart until AFTER the Russians left in 1989, and the country collapsed into civil war. By the time NATO arrived in 2002, the native Afghans had reduced their own country to rubble.

Does this video have the right title? The Taliban don't control Kabul in this video, only the country to the south of it.
@0puest0 The taliban wasn't involved in fighting the Russians. The Taliban was started by Mullah Omar in 1994. The Russians withdrew from Afghanistan in 1989. The US helped arm several groups of Muhjahadeen in Afghanistan against the USSR, none of which were "The Taliban."
1:15 the most horrifying thing I've seen today
Massoud the Afghan lion!
Obviously this particular video is about to age too well
My afghan people 😢💔 Allah help my people
poor innocent kids :-((
Why would god put helpless and innocent people in this hopeless position?
Looking at the spotless Pashtun record of at least 200 years, when Afghanistan successfully fought off all influences and/or invasions by the British, Soviets, US, and even Pakistan and today they are a society at the forefront of knowledge, culture, political/military influence and technology in the region. It is heartbreaking that any one would disagree with Edrees, as his profound understanding of his history and his culture is something he can only be proud of!

How can a traitor who sold afghans to the French rest in peace?
Ahmad Shah Massoud - the real representative of the native resistance to the designs of the unjust forces acting against the native people of that land.
Watching this in 2021 is like having a deja vu
Man, the pashtuns did a number on the people and the country..
Heaven knows all the children U.S injured, maimed and killed. Long live U.S of A.
Masud also was not good- He also did not hold the human rights. In this Video we only see his point of view, but the reality is not so. He killed many thousands of innocent people, but their(victims) voice wont and cant tranfer above media, because they have not the possibility!!

Read my comment - I did not forget Jamiat - Jamiat was defending the people. You do not fall for the propaganda of al those filthy proxies of outside and narrow minded tribalism - especially Pashtun tribalism. Brother. Everyone lazily condems that period 1992-1996 as civil war - when it was not that simple.

Money is created by ideology. Ideology defines economy. That's why islam is a threat to the capitalist ideology.
are there any underground/ grassroots organizations working to smuggle much needed money and supplies to these people? Do you know of any contacts? Thank you.
Not really stupid. I know a thing or two about the world. I guess you can call me a..."remorseless" American. How about that? It's more accurate. Would that make you happy?
It seems like the Taliban have not changed at all and I'm ashamed of my own government for negotiating a 'peace deal' with them while excluding the recognized govt. Also, what kind of group that says they have brought peace to the country does so by emptying the prisons on their way to capturing Kabul? The excuse that all of their brothers were the only prisoners is a blatant lie and couldn't be accepted by anyone with a mind of their own. Where did all of the murderers, kidnappers, and rapists disappear to? That is why they still have to have nightly police checkpoints all over the country.

The new version is slightly better they are happy now with TV cameras and they are not allowing terror groups to be based there. Weirdly they are now the government running things and ISIS are the insurgents. It didn't need to be this way though, Joe Biden made a terrible decision.

On the ground in Afg there is no tajik vs pashtoon. Its in the youtube that people who sold their country and run away with money of the people setteld in eu and usa post shits like that. An exampel. out of 70000 taliban soldiers 30 percent were non pashtoons.
Massoud & the ppl were against these forces: 1.Hezbi Islami directed from Rawalpindi, Pakistan. 2. Hezbi Wahdat - directed from Qom, Iran. 3. Hezbi Junbesh - directed from Moscow - Russia. 4. 1000s of Khalqi former police motivated by hatred of KABUL and KABULIS. 5. 1000s of released criminals from prisons and armed. Then when these were all defeated at great cost - then the TALIBAN appear - sponsored by London Riyadh Rawalpindi & Washington DC - with a few Oil Corporations aswell.

So Allah,Ishwar,Jesus r all the same.Its the right of evryone to pray God n theres nothing wrong in praying or not praying. But "religion" is like set of rules...made by human beings. It says wat to eat, wat not to eat..hw to pray..how to move..and all the Bullshit!! God has only one rule that is humanity.
