KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- Afghanistan's Taliban rulers -- already isolated
by their harsh brand of Islam and poor treatment of women -- announced plans
to make Hindus wear an identity label on their clothing to distinguish them
from Muslims.
[...]
The proposal -- reminiscent of the yellow Star of David that Jews were
forced to wear in Nazi Germany -- prompted an angry statement from
Hindu-dominated India.
[...]
But Munawaar Hasan, general secretary of a major Islamic political party in
neighboring Pakistan called Jamaat-e-Islami, or Islamic Party, said the move
seems aimed to give protection to Hindus.
``The Taliban should win praise for this step,'' he said. ``Providing
protection to religious minorities is a must in any Islamic country and this
step seems in line with this concept.''
