  • @TomFynn Well everyone lives on average 2 years longer and everyone earns £300 dollars more per year than in the 1990's

  • @TheDisproof I have no doubt that it is from the 90's. But when I compare this doc to the reports we get from Afghanistan now, I can't help wondering whether anything has changed there at all in the last 20 years. The pictures look terribly familiar. Except for the graininess.

  • This was from 1996.

  • @TomFynn John Simpson has been to the country many times, he talks about it in his several of his biographies which are an excellent read, if I recall it was in the 90's as the russians have already left (1989). He was probably working with cameraman Peter Jouvenal.

  • Just wondering: If it wasn't for the graininess of the video, could anybody tell whether this footage is from then or now...?

  • More examples of how backward, vile and pathetic Islam is.

    No surprises there then.

  • The horror... the horror.... Horror has a face... Horror and moral terror are your friends. Afghans = violent breed of horror to be feared.
