I think 2001 was the year Al Jazeera started to play an international role, in a way. Because in 2001, we were the only TV station located inside Kabul, and every image out of the war in Afghanistan, the beginning of the war in Afghanistan, came through Al Jazeera screen. (Afghanistan Quotes)
During the 19th century, Britain fought two wars in unsuccessful attempts to subjugate the Afghans.
