...trying out a range of therapies and various diets for my younger brother Noah, a low-functioning adult autistic: everything from chiropractic adjustments to megavitamin doses to copper bracelets.

That is what she tells those parents who seek her out here at Generation Rescue - and the 200,000 mothers she has met on her various autism tours and speaking engagements...

"The Taliban are used to this," says Waheed Muzhda, a former Taliban official. "When Mullah Dadullah was killed, some people thought that the Taliban would give up. But it didn't happen, because the Taliban are waging an ideological war, and in an ideological war, this kind of thing doesn't have a big impact." (See a bin Laden family photo album...
