The Kite Runner...#6

At the end of chapter 16 the soviets have moved out of Kabul, and the Taliban moved in. In 1996, the Taliban put a end to the daily fighting, they won the war. When Khaled came home he found Hassan in the kitchen listening to the radio. He said, "The war is over...there is going to be peace." No more rockets going off, gunshots or killing they thought. Hassan did not care. After what had happende to him nothing was the same. His friend had left him the filed, he ran away while Hassan was being raped, when he could have stopped it. So to Hassan it dose not matter if the war is over or not, because to him or to any other rape victim, the internal battle is never over. The Taliban two weeks later banned kite fighting and tow years later massacred the Hazaras in Mazar-i-Sharif.
