Having captured key districts and border posts with Iran, Pakistan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, the Taliban are now hunting for women in these areas. “All imams and mullahs in captured areas should provide the Taliban with a list of girls above 15 and widows under 45 to be married to Taliban fighters,” read a letter issued in the name of the Taliban’s Cultural Commission for Islamic preachers in the region. The Taliban has promised to marry these women to their fighters and take them to Pakistan’s Waziristan. There, these women will be converted to Islam and reintegrated.
Is anyone talking about the consent of the women involved? No. They are just getting a list of women who belong to the preferred age bracket – the reproductive age bracket, to be precise – and will take them as “wives,” or so they say.
The marriage is eyewash. The Islamic jihadis are only claiming women as war booty from their captured regions. These women will then be treated as sex slaves to satiate the Taliban men and reproduce a fresh crop of Islamic jihadis. It is concerning that despite the demand of the Taliban being published by newspapers all over the world, no feminist pop culture figure or woke society icon has taken to social media to condemn this demand for women in the captured and controlled areas poised by the Islamic group. Do they not see pernicious patriarchy in this monstrous ritual of taking clusters of women as war booty? This debauched act, continuing for the past 1400 years, is making inroads in the modern and woke 2021. Congratulations.
During the Taliban rule in Afghanistan before 2002, girls were banned from going to school, women were barred from working outside, and were not allowed to step out of the home without a male relative. Violators were penalized publicly and often lashed by their religious police.
Elderly Afghanis fear that the Taliban will again take away their daughters and turn them into slaves. “Since the Taliban took over, we feel depressed. At home, we can’t speak loudly, can’t listen to music and can’t send women to the Friday market. They are asking about family members. The [Taliban] sub-commander said you should not keep girls over the age of 18; it’s sinful, they must get married,” cries Haji Rozi Baig, fearing that her daughters, aged 23 and 24, will be the next victims of the Taliban.
It is customary for Islamic jihadis to hoard sex slaves, and the Taliban are not doing anything contradictory to the ideology they follow and are striving to globalize. Child brides and windows trapped as sex slaves are common in their world. Half of all girls in these regions are married by the age of 15, many are sold to the Taliban by their parents to make a quick buck. Taliban have also routinely abducted women from Uzbek, Tajik, Hazara and other ethnic minorities, to be traded and taken as sex slaves. Some women are also sold to wealthy clients in or outside Afghanistan, some are sent to Pakistan to be sold to brothels, and others are kept at al Qaeda training camps. There’s another section of women who are married off to Taliban fighters, but the pseudo-marriage does not negate their status of being sex slaves; they are left entirely helpless to be dishonored and then discarded.
It gets worse for these young brides after their jihadi husbands are killed in terrorist activities or clashes with the forces. Abandoned by society, these widows are forced to marry the next Taliban fighter in line, or just left to be raped regularly and repeatedly by the cousins, brothers or companions of the dead husband.
The children from the previous marriage are not spared, either. The girls, as young as four years old, are sold off to other jihadis to carry the legacy of her sex slave mother. Young boys are trained in operating weapons, taking off heads, and grow up as they succeed this generation of jihadis.
Speaking to Reuters, a 26-year-old widowed sex slave said, “They (Taliban) plan to send both of my sons to Pakistan to participate in jihad… They take my elder son for religious indoctrination and training to become a militant like his father.” The local government extends no help to rescue these sex slaves caught in a precarious position and compelled to spend their lives as sex slaves. Their children have no way out of this vicious trap, either. And that’s how jihad begets jihad.
Walter Sieruk says
Of course the Taliban demanding females ,both girls and woman captured in Afghanistan as sex slaves is a callous affront and violation against the basic human rights of girls and women .
This is because the Taliban by engaging in such heinously despicable behavior following the heartless way of Islam’s misogyny . As explained by the Arab scholar on Islam, Brigitte Gabriel , in her book entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED . For on page 182 the reader is informed that the “horrific treatment of women who are sold into slavery …are not viewed as equals in Islamic countries ,they are though of as property.”
As for the prophet of Islam who all Muslim look up to as an example of how behave in Mrs Gabriel on the very next page of same book in reads “Muhammad himself own dozens of slaves.” History also reveals that he used the pretty girls as his sex slaves.
Another scholar and former Muslim, Ibn Warraq in his book THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM also informed his readers that “Slavery is recognized as an institution ,and a slave is considered both a thing and as a person.” page 85
Getting back to the above mentioned book by Brigitte Gabriel on connecting male Muslim sex slavery of females it reads on page 171 “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islamic ideology .” On the next page it further reads “woman in Islam are considered unclean , deemed inferior even to dirt.”
Indeed, they must be stopped !
angelo says
Who’s going to stop them? Certainly not creepy, senile uncle Joe.
LB says
USA–the most powerful military force on Earth–spent 20 years suppressing them and collaborating with local forces, and what did that accomplish? Absolutely nothing. American soldiers were witness to child rape and abuse by local non-Taliban authorities but were told to keep quiet because it is a “local custom” to do that. So much for the “good guys”.
Face it, there are no “good guys” among the muslims. So long as islam exists, muslims will murder, rape and enslave the non-muslims and even the muslims they view as lesser than themselves in case the former group are nowhere to be found. You want to stop them? Isolate them to the point where they’ll exterminate themselves, it’s the only way.
These local muslims crying about how the Taliban will take their women should have acted more enthusiastically when the most powerful nation was backing them up, they only had 20 F—ING YEARS TO DO IT!! It’s only now when the USA left that they realize the gravity of their situation. Well don’t blame me for not shedding a single tear for their lazy muslim asses, they can now enjoy the full brunt of their creed that they love so much.

Taliban demands war booty, women aged 15-45, as sex slaves in captured Afghanistan
………………
This is orthodox Islam. God, I hate this foul creed.

At this point, it’s none of our business: we’re out of there. We did think we tried to civilize them for 20 years, ignoring the islamic underpinnings of that ‘culture’. Now that we’re gone, it’s their problem!
Check Burry says
They are on an upward trend in morals, having set the lower limit of 15, oh what progress, they must be going a bit soft.
john smith says
That’s exactly what I was thinking Check. It’s hard to believe they are letting off all those 9, 10 and 11 year old girls. However can’t see it lasting.
Walter Sieruk says
It’s totally absurd and unrealistic of Joe Biden and other governmental leftists to feel that a genuine lasting peace agreement can be made with and kept with those cruel male chauvinist Taliban pigs .
gravenimage says
Yes–“peace talks” and negotiations with the Taliban are just ludicrous.
Infidel says
Wrong goal. Pulling our troops out b’cos there’s nothing they can do b’cos they’ve tried it for 20 years was the right decision. Biden is just coming up w/ the wrong reasons, and those on the right who criticize this withdrawal just b’cos of the way he’s handling it are missing the big picture
gravenimage says
Agreed. It is impossible for us to civilize Islamic Afghanistan.
Michael Copeland says
Remember the contrived “Day of Rage” outside the Danish Embassy in London?
One of the participants, dutifully doing as instructed in the mosque, worked from the same script:
““And Take Their Wives as War Booty”.

Very true, Michael. Thank you for that link.
WCM says
Lest we forget: the charming Afghanistani custom (sanctioned by the koran “…pearls…etc.”) of “bacha bazi.” All those young boys swept away to become boy toys of the Talibanger/Jihadi swarm.
Kevin Dickson says
You would think with this as a consequence of losing the MEN in Afghanistan would fight harder to defeat the Taliban. They won’t. Why? Because men in Afghanistan consider women and children to be disposable property. If they won’t fight to save their women……why should we??

This is islam in it’s purest form

Child brides and windows trapped as sex slaves are common in their world.
they must be sick. muslims have windows as sex slaves. who washes these windows?

Did someone misspell “widow” as “window”? If so, I’m sure readers knew what they meant.
Kepha says
OK, Leftists. Celebrate another victory over imperialism, and the restoration of some non-Western country’s “pride and dignity”.
LEO says
I cannot believe the West has deserted Afghanistan rendering all the lives lost pointless. So much for women’s rights, so much for improving thats society for the benefit of all. Can’t help but think Biden is a coward but then Trump tried to do some disgusting deal with the Taliban, both are culpable.
The west has lost the high moral ground, probably forever. Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have been sheltering and funding the Taliban for years without interference from America or any other western country. Why have we left the state of affairs prevail? We shall now reap the whirlwind.
gravenimage says
These were pointless losses in any case–the recent Afghan government itself–not the Taliban–put stoning back on the books. That American and coalition lives should be lost for a Shari’ah state is appalling.
The west *has* been all too often clueless about Islam, but the idea that it is responsible for Islam in Afhanistan is mistaken. The country is statitically 100% Muslim, and there is nothing we can do to civilize them.
Pretending that if we cannot civilize Muslims that we have “lost the moral high ground” is bizarre. Our problem was in thinking that this was possible in the first place.
