As the article’s other quotations suggest, he has spent two intense years rebuilding a program with transparency, decency, and new ideas. A superb teacher himself—perhaps the article could have given his average Q rating over the last 10 years? —he has proven himself an effective and trusted administrator.

A spokesman for the militants dismissed Karzai's announcement as a propaganda ploy to suggest a schism within the Taliban's ranks. Not only was that not true, the press release that was subsequently sent to journalists announced the start of the Taliban's spring offensive, dubbed "Operation Victory."
