.. was the caretaker head of a government cabinet, the cabinet of a self-proclaimed government. Mullah Hassan Akhund is prime minister of the Taliban’s interim government, one of his chief claims to fame being that he’s on the UN’s sanctions list. The so-called charm offensive by the Taliban can never have been anything other than hollow. They do, after all, lack charm. For now, Afghanistan - poor Afghanistan - and the world are lumbered with them, hope possibly residing among younger elements who are uneasy about the dominance of the religious mullahs. Hope? It will seem far off for the brave people who have been making a stand.
