National security experts are warning of what could happen now that President Biden is pulling all U.S. troops out of Afghanistan. They fear the withdrawal could mean a terrible outcome for that country and possibly another terrorist attack on America by Al Qaeda.
The locals in Afghanistan are full of fear about what could come next. Ms. Sadat fled to Iran twenty years ago when the Taliban took control of her country Afghanistan. When I was in Iran, the media used to show the destruction and war in Afghanistan, in general, we were horrified by the Taliban, Sadat said.

Inside Ms. Sadat’s Beauty Salon in Afghanistan’s capital, Sultana Karimi leans intently over a customer, meticulously shaping her eyebrows. Make-up and hair styling is the 24-year-old’s passion, and she discovered it, along with a newfound confidence, here in the salon.
She and the other young women working or apprenticing in the salon never experienced the rule of the Taliban over Afghanistan.
But they all worry that their dreams will come to an end if the hard-line militants regain any power, even if peacefully as part of a new government.
“With the return of Taliban, society will be transformed and ruined,” Karimi said. “Women will be sent into hiding, they’ll be forced to wear the burqa to go out of their homes.”
