"Because Afghanistan is different" - Fatima Gailani
"This is not an Afghanistan that came out of a very bitter, ugly civil war of the Mujahedin."
"It's an Afghanistan of educated people. It's an Afghanistan of men and women seen in important positions. This is an Afghanistan where people can go on radio, television and criticize their governments, the leaders."
Are they doing that now? "They are doing that now. How long they will continue ... But no one could shut them up. That one thing I know."
"If anyone is interested in governing Afghanistan, they have to accept the new Afghanistan. Never in the history of Afghanistan was it that way."
