When the war in Afghanistan got underway, there were bozos like Michael Moore and other simpletons acting grief-stricken that Afghanistan was an ideal society suddenly brutalised by war. What these knobs didn't mention was the horrendous refugee crisis happening there -along the borders with Pakistan and Iran due to the monstrosities of the neanderthal talibum dictatorship against innocent civilians.
Old links relating to how it was in 2001;

Things not much better now -mainly because the Talibums weren't finished off when the opportunity was there.
Anyway-a good link for the current status;

Related to refugees;-

Iraqi Refugees -millions
Some speculate that the reason the number of civil war type incidents are dropping is likely due to Iraqis getting the hell out of their formerly mixed neighbourhoods to avoid the horrors of ongoing religious-cleansing by thugs.

While on the topic of Iraqi refugees, there's this issue to consider - Iraqi assisters of the Coalition needing to be pulled out when the US troops finally withdraw in bulk - many of us rember those images of vietnamese trying to get out with the last US helicopters leaving Vietnam. Amongst that crowd were many who had been helping the Americans during their stay there.
Very good link; Take extra time to check out the very informative map/stats at the end of this link.
