Free world's resolve will be tested.

Dear Dr Pipes, the best way to deal with dictatorial regimes is to isolate them so they starve themselves to death. Talibani Afghanistan deserves the same treatment. This good sense is probably dawning on the countries of the world. Yesterday, India extended its polite promise for help to the Taliban but promised no money. Even the country with capital in Londonistan said that they won't give direct aid to the Taliban. Hope more and more countries follow this plan and, thus, the intellectually bankrupt Taliban learn the hard way that dictatorial regimes including Islamists do not work; they crumble and collapse. Let Afghanistan be the laboratory to test Islam.

Unfortunately, good people and nations like to help. Our resolve will be tested. We will send humanitarian aid to Afghanistan and Taliban will steal from it.
