reconstruction of afghanistan
Sec. 589. (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that:
(1) Prior to the rise of the Taliban in 1996, women
throughout Afghanistan enjoyed greater freedoms, comprising 70
percent of school teachers, 50 percent of civilian government
workers, and 40 percent of doctors in Kabul.
(2) In Taliban-controlled areas of Afghanistan, women have
been banished from the work force, schools have been closed to
girls and women expelled from universities, women have been
prohibited from leaving their homes unless accompanied by a
close male relative, and publicly visible windows of women's
houses have been ordered to be painted black.
(3) In Taliban-controlled areas of Afghanistan, women have
been forced to wear the burqa (or chadari)--which completely
shrouds the body, leaving only a small mesh-covered opening
through which to see.
(4) In Taliban-controlled areas of Afghanistan, women and
girls have been prohibited from being examined by male
physicians while at the same time, most female doctors and
nurses have been prohibited from working.
(5) In Taliban-controlled areas of Afghanistan, women have
been brutally beaten, publicly flogged, and killed for
violating Taliban decrees.
(6) The United States and the United Nations have never
recognized the Taliban as the legitimate government of

authority in Saudi Arabia, the Grand Mufti, have spoken out
against suicide bombings.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that--

increased peace corps presence in muslim countries
Sec. 593.(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September
11, 2001, it is more important than ever to foster peaceful
relationships with citizens of predominantly Muslim countries.
(2) One way to foster understanding between citizens of
predominantly Muslim countries and the United States is to send
United States citizens to work with citizens of Muslim
countries on constructive projects in their home countries.
(3) The Peace Corps mission as stated by Congress in the
Peace Corps Act is to promote world peace and friendship.
(4) Within that mission, the Peace Corps has three goals:

of Americans on the part of the peoples served.
(C) To assist in promoting a better understanding

these goals in the countries in which the Peace Corps operates,
and has already established mechanisms to put volunteers in

predominantly Muslim countries.

countries would assist in promoting peace and understanding
between Americans and Muslims abroad.

to determine--

volunteers in countries that have a majority Muslim population;

citizens who have an interest in those countries or who speak
Arabic;

Corps volunteers in countries that have a majority Muslim

sudan
Sec. 595. (a) Findings Regarding the Need for Humanitarian
Assistance.--The Senate makes the following findings:
(1) The war in Sudan has cost more than 2,000,000 lives and
has displaced more than 4,000,000 people.
(2) The victims of this 18-year war are not confined to one
ethnic group or religion as moderate Moslems in eastern and
western Sudan suffer greatly, as do Christians and animists in
southern Sudan.
(3) Humanitarian assistance to the Sudanese is a
cornerstone of United States foreign assistance policy and
efforts to end the war in Sudan.
(4) The United States Government has been the largest
single provider of humanitarian assistance to the Sudanese
people, providing $1,200,000,000 in humanitarian assistance to
war victims during the past 10 years, including $161,400,000
during fiscal year 2000 alone.
(5) Continued strengthening of United States assistance
efforts and international humanitarian relief operations in
Sudan are essential to bringing an end to the war.

people of Sudan, who have suffered under the National Islamic
Front (NIF) government.
(2) For more than a decade, the NIF government has provided
safe haven for well-known terrorist organizations, including to
Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
(3) The NIF government has been engaged, and continues to
engage, in gross human rights violations against the civilian
population of Sudan, including the enslavement of women and
children, the bombardment of civilian targets, and the
scorched-earth destruction of villages in the oil fields of
Sudan.
(c) Sense of the Senate.--In recognition of the sustained struggle
for self-determination and dignity by the Sudanese people, as embodied
in the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Declaration
of Principles, and the statement adopted by the United States
Commission on International Religious Freedom on October 2, 2001, it is
the sense of the Senate that--
(1) the National Islamic Front (NIF) government of Sudan
should--
(A) establish an internationally supervised trust
fund that will manage and equitably disburse oil
revenues;
(B) remove all bans on relief flights and provide
unfettered access to all affected areas, including the
Nuba Mountains;
(C) end slavery and punish those responsible for
this crime against humanity;
(D) end civilian bombing and the destruction of
communities in the oil fields;
(E) honor the universally recognized right of
religious freedom, including freedom from coercive
religious conversions;
(F) seriously engage in an internationally
sanctioned peace process based on the already adopted
Declaration of Principles; and
(G) commit to a viable cease-fire agreement based
on a comprehensive settlement of the political
problems; and
(2) the President should continue to provide generous
levels of humanitarian, development, and other assistance in
war-affected areas of Sudan, and to refugees in neighboring
countries, with an increased emphasis on moderate Moslem
populations who have been brutalized by the Sudanese government
throughout the 18-year conflict.
