UN warns Afghanistan could slide into chaos. 22/02/2005. ABC News Online:

"Afghanistan remains one of the world's poorest places three years after the ousting of the Taliban and could fall back into chaos if people's grievances are not addressed, the United Nations has warned in its first ever development survey of the war-ravaged country.

There had been 'remarkable' progress since US-led forces toppled the Islamic regime, but without help the country that once sheltered Osama bin Laden could again pose a international threat, the report that ranked Afghanistan 173 out of 178 countries says."
