"Ada suatu masa ketika para wanita Afghanistan - setidaknya di Kabul - ada di luar sana. Mereka diizinkan belajar, mereka adalah dokter dan ahli bedah, berjalan bebas, mengenakan apa yang mereka inginkan. Saat itulah di bawah pendudukan Soviet. Kemudian Amerika Serikat mulai mendanai para mujahidin. Reagan menyebut mereka "bapak pendiri" Afghanistan. Ini bereinkarnasi gagasan "jehad," sebenarnya menciptakan Taliban."

--- Arundhati Roy

Versi Bahasa Inggris

There was a time when the women of Afghanistan - at least in Kabul - were out there. They were allowed to study, they were doctors and surgeons, walking free, wearing what they wanted. That was when it was under Soviet occupation. Then the United States starts funding the mujahideen. Reagan called them Afghanistan's "founding fathers." It reincarnates the idea of "jehad," virtually creates the Taliban.
