SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING THE IMPORTANT ROLE
OF WOMEN IN THE FUTURE RECONSTRUCTION OF AF-
GHANISTAN
SEC. 589. (a) FINDINGS.—The Senate finds that:
(1) Prior to the rise of the Taliban in 1996,

percent of civilian government workers, and 40 per-
cent 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
242
HR 2506 PP
from universities, women have been prohibited from
leaving their homes unless accompanied by a close
male relative, and publicly visible windows of wom-
en’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 ex-
amined 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 Afghanistan, in part, because of their
horrific treatment of women and girls.
(7) Afghan women and children now make up 75
percent of the millions of Afghan refugees living in
neighboring countries in substandard conditions with
little food and virtually no clean water or sanitation.

cide bombings can be justified, including consider-
ations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial,
ethnic, religious or other similar nature.

rorism that must be universally condemned.

demn all suicide bombings by resolution.

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 pre-
dominantly 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
246
HR 2506 PP
work with citizens of Muslim countries on construc-
tive projects in their home countries.
(3) The Peace Corps mission as stated by Con-
gress in the Peace Corps Act is to promote world
peace and friendship.
(4) Within that mission, the Peace Corps has
three goals:
(A) To assist the people of interested coun-
tries in meeting the need of those countries for
trained men and women.
(B) To assist in promoting a better under-
standing of Americans on the part of the peoples
served.
(C) To assist in promoting a better under-
standing of other peoples on the part of Ameri-
cans.
(5) The Peace Corps has had significant success
in meeting these goals in the countries in which the
Peace Corps operates, and has already established
mechanisms to put volunteers in place and sustain
them abroad.
(6) The Peace Corps currently operates in very
few predominantly Muslim countries.
(7) An increased number of Peace Corps volun-
teers in Muslim countries would assist in promoting
247
HR 2506 PP
peace and understanding between Americans and
Muslims abroad.
(b) STUDY.—The Director of the Peace Corps shall un-
dertake a study to determine—
(1) the feasibility of increasing the number of

jority Muslim population;
(2) the manner in which the Peace Corps may
target the recruitment of Peace Corps volunteers from
among United States citizens who have an interest in
those countries or who speak Arabic;
(3) appropriate mechanisms to ensure the safety
of Peace Corps volunteers in countries that have a
majority Muslim population; and
(4) the estimated increase in funding that will be
necessary for the Peace Corps to implement any rec-
ommendation resulting from the study of the matters
described in paragraphs (1) through (3).
(c) REPORT.—Not later than 6 months after the date
of enactment of this Act, the Director of the Peace Corps

SUDAN
SEC. 595. (a) FINDINGS REGARDING THE NEED FOR
HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE.—The Senate makes the fol-
lowing findings:
250
HR 2506 PP
(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 con-
fined 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 pol-
icy 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 hu-
manitarian assistance to war victims during the past
10 years, including $161,400,000 during fiscal year
2000 alone.
(5) Continued strengthening of United States as-
sistance efforts and international humanitarian relief
operations in Sudan are essential to bringing an end
to the war.
(b) FINDINGS REGARDING THE NIF GOVERNMENT.—
In addition to the findings under subsection (a), the Senate
makes the following findings:
251
HR 2506 PP
(1) The people of the United States will not
abandon the 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 orga-
nizations, 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 bombard-
ment of civilian targets, and the scorched-earth de-
struction of villages in the oil fields of Sudan.
(c) SENSE OF THE SENATE.—In recognition of the sus-
tained struggle for self-determination and dignity by the
Sudanese people, as embodied in the Inter-Governmental
Authority on Development (IGAD) Declaration of Prin-
ciples, and the statement adopted by the United States
Commission on International Religious Freedom on Octo-
ber 2, 2001, it is the sense of the Senate that—
(1) the National Islamic Front (NIF) govern-
ment of Sudan should—
(A) establish an internationally supervised
trust fund that will manage and equitably dis-
burse oil revenues;
252
HR 2506 PP
(B) remove all bans on relief flights and
provide unfettered access to all affected areas, in-
cluding the Nuba Mountains;
(C) end slavery and punish those respon-
sible for this crime against humanity;
(D) end civilian bombing and the destruc-
tion of communities in the oil fields;
(E) honor the universally recognized right
of religious freedom, including freedom from co-
ercive 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 polit-
ical problems; and
(2) the President should continue to provide gen-
erous levels of humanitarian, development, and other
assistance in war-affected areas of Sudan, and to ref-
ugees in neighboring countries, with an increased em-
phasis on moderate Moslem populations who have
been brutalized by the Sudanese government through-
out the 18-year conflict.
