The doctor, Fahima Rahmati, is a woman. That is enough as a criterion for abuse by the Taliban, given its well-documented history. The Taliban has fashioned its interim government — “the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan” — after the Iranian regime, with jihadists from Guantanamo in government. It has already gained legitimacy from the UN indirectly via funding, and open support from Qatar, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Hamas, China and others. The UK has indicated its readiness to embrace it if the Taliban respects “inclusivity.”
At the core of the Western willingness to accept the Taliban as legitimate is the complete blindness about what the Taliban represents: strict adherence to the literal teachings of the Qur’an and Hadith, as well as willful blindness and lack of concern about the well-being of women, infidels, religious minorities and dissidents, who are being oppressed, murdered and abused under Taliban rule. The treatment of Dr. Fahima Rahmati will be commonplace in Afghanistan as the country descends into the most barbaric form of Islamization. Recall in 2015:
a 27-year-old Afghan woman was beaten and burned alive in the very heart of Kabul by a mob of angry men. Hundreds of people watched the killing of Farkhunda Malikzada, a student of the Koran and Islamic Shari’a law, while others participated in the rampage. The mob’s outrage had been ignited by a false rumor that Farkhunda had blasphemed the Prophet Muhammad.
“Afghanistan: Female doctor in Kandahar claims beaten by Taliban,” ANI, September 13, 2021:
Kabul [Afghanistan], September 13 (ANI): A female doctor in Afghanistan’s Kandahar province has claimed that her home was stormed by the Taliban and she was beaten along with her family members and a neighbour, local media reported.
Fahima Rahmati, who is also a civil activist, said in a video clip that the Taliban have also taken her mobile phones while their raid on her home on Sunday night (local time), Khaama Press reported.
Rahmati said that she was neither a former government official nor had a weapon in her home but the Taliban wanted to take with themselves her brothers.
Provincial officials in Kandahar province said that they are not aware of the raid and will investigate the case and bring to justice the culprits, Khaama Press reported.
Fahima Rahmati is a local doctor and is running a charity foundation in Kandhar province and helping poor families.
“Two of my brothers are still missing, I hope the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan will hear my voice, my two brothers, my brother-in-law and two brothers-in-law of my sister are still missing, where are they and with whom are they?” Khaama Press quoted Rahmati as saying….

Hiow can blair, bush and a whole bunch of other things like them, utter its a religion of peace, instead of saying like it is, based on reports like this, talibums have not changed.
PRCS says
The excuse, in Blair’s case: it’s a perversion of Islam.
PMK says
I wonder if Blair read this article on the Taliban. The last sentence reads:
Taliban’s Islam, a close kin of Saudi Arabian Wahhabism due to the Saudi involvement in education, is far more perversion than interpretation. The Taliban’s version of Islamic law, or Sharia, is historically inaccurate, contradictory, self-serving, and fundamentally deviant from prevailing interpretations of Islamic law and practice.

If the Taliban’s version of Islam is perverted, what does that say about Wahhabism?

Neither is a perversion of Islam–they are both orthodox Islam.
PMK says
Christine’s commentary condemns Westerners’ “willful blindness and lack of concern about the well-being of women, infidels, religious minorities and dissidents, who are being oppressed, murdered and abused under Taliban rule.”
It’s not just Taliban rule. It’s Sharia law. It’s not unique to the Taliban. It’s not unique to Afghanistan. It isn’t even an issue for most Muslim women. To quote Christine from a post she made back in March regarding a law being proposed in Egypt (not exactly run by the Taliban!):
There is a widespread irony: many Muslim women (including Islamic State brides) perpetuate the inferiority of women and accept their own “place” of inferiority; they defend degrading Islamic tenets against women. They defend them with pride and advocate them with scorn against infidels who stand up for the equality of women.

The government of Afghanistan was corrupt and was unwilling to confront and eliminate the Taliban. If the people of Afghanistan were not willing to go against their fellow Muslims BECAUSE they are their fellow Muslims, what is the West supposed to do? We can no longer fight their battles for them, and that includes all Muslim women.

All true, PMK.

Grimly true. Afghanistan could never be civilized.
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 misogynistic Muslim monsters.

Walter Sieruk says
News has gotten out that Taliban are so viciously misogynist that they been hunting down girls and women, like animals, and raping them.
It also came out that the Taliban have even chosen specific women to hunt down and kill for “sport.”
No wonder those Taliban monsters want the journalists out of Afghanistan.
For the Taliban are the epitome and personification of total, un-deluded Islamic evil.
Walter Sieruk says
The brutal cruel and murderous Taliban will rule all the land that they reconquer in Afghanistan by the tyranny of Sharia law which gives females, both girls and women, very little to no basic human rights at all.
Therefore about Sharia law, it should be made known that the actual origin of Sharia law is revealed in a Time –Life book with the title MESOPOTAMIA: THE MIGHTY KINGS copyright 1995. The point is this history book about the ancient pagan world of Mesopotamia informs the reader that “many Islamic laws resemble the Babylon and Assyrian forebears.” .page 150.
There is the above and other references imply that such pagan teachings were incorporated into the religion that Muhammad manufactured and then started.
Thus this further reveals that a lot of ancient paganism is part of the whole religion of Islam.
In other words, ancient paganism makes up much of Islam. Therefore Islam with its Sharia law are a hoax.

Afghanistan: Taliban storm home of female doctor, beat her and her family members
………….
Jihad against clinic doctors.
God, I hate Islam.
OLD GUY says
Why are we bringing this to America? Just think of the numbers 94,000 islamic migrants coming to America means chain migration will increase that number to 2 million or more of these islamic lovers.
Sorry can’t see the benefit to American citizens now or in the future.
James Lincoln says
All downside, OLD GUY.
Jim says
Afghanistan is a lost cause. We should start worrying about the thousands of unvetted muslims being relocated into the US. There are a lot of single males being imported without any review. I see a lot of
US Jihad activity in the near future.
Raja says
Jim,
With all due respect to you, Afghanistan should have never been a “cause for democratic experimentation”
Hence where is the lost cause? This “lost cause” should be an eyeopener for the entire world that you allow Muslims to have Sharia in abundance and enjoy the curse that comes with it.
Agreed. You can expect lots of jihad in US, thanks to Biden.
