	Ahmad Shah Ahmadzai: Islamist Insists He's Broken Armed Faction Ties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Ahmadzai is seen by many as a religious conservative - and he's come in for criticism from women's rights activists in Afghanistan, but he insists the majority of female voters share his values.
		Ahmadzai has been in government before: he was interior minister in the mujahedin government formed in 1992, held the posts of construction and education minister at various times, and in 1995-96 was even prime minister of Afghanistan.
		Ahmadzai was born 60 years ago in the village of Malang in the Khak-e-Jabar district, to the east of Kabul.

		Ahmadzai suggested he was opposed to a continued U.S. presence in the country (Reuters) and also decried "meddling" by Afghanistan's neighbors in its affairs ("Kabul Cheragh").

		Now, on his first visit to Kabul in almost a decade, the hotel that once represented the arrival of the good life in Afghanistan is but a war-rattled shell of its former self.
		But Ahmadzai is doubtful that many of his exiled countrymen will be keen to return to a country so wasted it doesn't even offer a functioning education system, or a phone network.
