2. what was life in afghanistan like under the taliban regime

The correct answers are:

2. Oppressive, especially for women

Explanation:

1. He was an Iranian Shiite cleric who led the revolution that toppled Shah Reza Pahlavi in 1979, established an Islamic regime and ruled the country until his death ten years later.

He led the uprising that led to the overthrow of the Shah on January 16, 1979, and returned in crowds on February 1, being hailed as the religious leader of the revolution in Iran. In December, a referendum approved the establishment of an Islamic republic in Iran, with Khomeini being named a political and religious leader for life. He imposed a regime led by the "mullahs" (Shiite clerics) and reimposed the "Sharia" or Islamic law. The repression against any opposition was brutal.

He supported the assault of the American embassy in Iran on November 4, 1979, and the taking of hostages among diplomatic personnel. This kidnapping was maintained for more than a year.

After being attacked by Saddam Hussein in 1980, he refused any agreement to put an end to the bloody and brutal war between Iraq and Iran, hoping to defeat and overthrow the dictator of Baghdad. Finally in 1988, when the two countries were totally exhausted by the conflict, they agreed to sign a ceasefire. He died the following year while still a charismatic figure among the Iranian people.

2. In Afghan society dominated by Taliban sects, women are oppressed and flogged in public if they go out without the company of a male relative, are stoned if they leave a millimeter of their skin uncovered and cannot attend schools or universities. Work is strictly forbidden and the windows of their houses are painted opaque to avoid being seen from the street because according to the Government, their faces and body are a source of corruption for men.  They cannot be treated by a doctor and cannot wear shoes that produce any noise. The burka is the only approved dress and consists of a tunic that covers them from the head to the feet, and only grants a small mesh in the eyes to be able to see.

question: write a report analyzing through articles of confederation.

answer: the articles of confederation the united states constitution was written when the people feared strong government the new nation needed some kind of organization to hold states together to them fend off future attacks and make a stronger support system through the states and people the states bonded through a friendship that best served as a defense against a invasion and states were not allowed to use taxes as a way to discourage treaties, and states were extremely limited in their dealings with foreign nations the strengths were that the congress has the highest power in the nation because of   fear of monarchy congress had the sole power to declare war and assign treaties disputes between states and territorial issues were to be brought to congress and weaknesses were the lack of power given to congress the articles gave congress the power to pass laws but no power to enforce those laws if a state did not support a federal law that state could simply ignore it congress had no power to levy taxes or regulate trade.
