BBC NEWS | South Asia | Afghan villagers answer your questions
I'm not sure about the original set of questions from 2 years ago, but this update, nevertheless, is a great look into these people's lives and how things have changed for them. There's a broad range of questions besides just the expected Taliban/Taleban and war questions. Pretty good insight from these people and their hopes & dreams, and how they feel about democracy and what THEY think should be done for their country, not what others think should be done.
