The Taleban may well end up deciding that foreign infidel tourists would bring bad ideas into the country so it might be better to do without their dirty dollars.
The only way to get a peek at some of the country's treasures might be to grow a beard and come there pretending to be a devoutly religious Taleban supporter coming to learn more about their success that you so admire. | | | | | And return well educated, an asset to the Swiss army?  | | This user would like to thank curley for this useful post: | |

| Quote: | | | | | On a serious note though, there’s no denying that Afghanistan is a beautiful and historically rich place worthwhile to visit. However the timing is wrong and I wouldn’t venture there until there’s more certainty as to who is in control of the country and what’s the country’s agenda towards tourists. The last thing is you wanna fall into kidnapping by some scumbags subject to hefty ransom. | | | | | As long as you are not American or British, it should be fine

at least 5'000 troops. Perhaps they could volunteer for that mission?
