SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Afghanistan Freedom Act of 2001''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The rise to power of the Taliban in Afghanistan has 
        caused a drastic decline in the human, political, and civil 
        rights of the Afghan people, particularly among women, girls, 
        and ethnic minorities.
            (2) In the year 2001, millions of Afghans are on the verge 
        of starvation, the largest such group in the world.
            (3) The United States is the single largest donor of 
        humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan, totaling more than 
        $185,000,000 in fiscal year 2001.
            (4) There are approximately 2,000,000 Afghan refugees in 
        Pakistan, 1,500,000 Afghan refugees in Iran, and 1,000,000 
        internally displaced persons in Afghanistan, most fleeing 
        oppression, violence, and economic hardship.
            (5) During the period of Taliban rule, Afghanistan has 
        become the world's largest source of illegal opium, and 
        proceeds from the sale of raw opium to drug traffickers are 
        used by the Taliban to finance its war on the Afghan people.
            (6) Under Taliban rule, Afghanistan has become a training 
        ground, operational base, and safe haven for terrorists and 
        international terrorist organizations, many of whom gain 
        experience fighting alongside Taliban forces inside Afghanistan 
        prior to conducting terrorist operations outside Afghanistan.
            (7) The Taliban have, since 1996, harbored and protected 
        terrorist leader Osama bin Laden and members of his terrorist 
        al Qaeda network.
            (8) Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda associates were 
        indicted for the August 7, 1998, bombings of the United States 
        embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania, as a 
        result of which the United Nations Security Council adopted 
        Resolution 1267 (1999), demanding that the Taliban surrender 
        Osama bin Laden for trial and determining that the Taliban's 
        continued provision of sanctuary to international terrorist 
        organizations constitutes a threat to international peace and 
        security.
            (9) In order to compel the Taliban to surrender Osama bin 
        Laden and terminate support for international terrorist 
        organizations, the United Nations Security Council has imposed 
        progressively more comprehensive sanctions on the Taliban under 
        Resolutions 1267 (1999), 1333 (2000), and 1363 (2001), which 
        sanctions are binding on all members of the United Nations 
        under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations.
            (10) As a result of the Taliban's failure to comply with 
        the demands of the United States and the United Nations 
        Security Council, Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda network were 
        able to orchestrate from Afghanistan the September 11, 2001, 
        terrorist attack on the United States in which approximately 
        6,000 Americans and foreign nationals were murdered.
            (11) The Taliban have, since the September 11th attack on 
        the United States, rejected all entreaties by the United States 
        and other governments to surrender Osama bin Laden, close down 
        international terrorist operations in Afghanistan, and comply 
        with the other demands that have been made by the United 
        Nations Security Council.
            (12) Afghanistan is an ethnically diverse nation that can 
        prosper only under a representative government that affords all 
        citizens of that nation their basic human rights, restores 
        peace and security, eradicates the drug trade, and brings all 
        terrorists and terrorist organizations in Afghanistan to 
        justice.

SEC. 3. UNITED STATES POLICY TOWARD AFGHANISTAN.

    It shall be the policy of the United States to promote the removal 
from power of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan so as to diminish the 
risk of future terrorist attack on the United States and restore basic 
human freedoms to the people of Afghanistan.
