In addition, many of the Pashtun commanders in southern Afghanistan have distanced themselves from the Taliban and have expressed their willingness to join the Northern Alliance in forming an Afghanistan Loya Jirga to run the country after the demise of the Taliban is complete.
Things seem to be progressing along those lines, as well as can be expected after only a month or so of fighting.
Of course the whole thing could fall into the shitcan, but such is war.
