Raining blessings
ISLAMABAD, MARCH 20. The Taliban leader, Mullah Mohammad Omar,
has said the smashing of two Buddha statues in Afghanistan
pleased Allah who as a result sent rains to the drought-hit
country, reports said today.
Widespread rains broke a four-year drought in Afghanistan last
week while the Taliban was destroying the Bamiyan Buddhas.
``We broke the idols and Allah sent us rains'', the reclusive
Taliban leader was quoted as saying.
