RE:Good photos and info.....

OK- let us go with your analysis of the greatness of Islamic civilizations, including Afghanistan- I don't live in the past, and neither do you. Show me what Afghanistan stands for now? Show me any Islamic country with a state of the art modern science institute/ university where foreign students flock to. Some of the Indian universitiesare now quite famous, attracting many foreign students.

Whatever happened to 'intellectual exchange' these days with muslims? Are they imbibing science and technology from the West? The proof is in the pudding, I am yet to see a single muslim country, let alone Afghanistan, reach the zenith of human civilization. Look at USA- students from around the world come to study science/technology/art here. That is what I would expect from Islamic countries, who continue to tout their contributions to math, algebra, etc. The reality is,they got the knowledge from others are passed it on. But these days, they are not even doing that. Instead, they have resorted to terror on a massive scale.
