Guterres knows full well that his words calling on the Taliban to treat women as equals are useless, but his urging countries to give more money to Afghanistan is worse than useless. Such idiocy will empower the Taliban in their reign of oppression and terror, and enable further abuse women in the name of Islam. Guterres claims the Taliban broke their promises regarding women, but actually the Taliban was clear on their mandates for women, vowing to respect the rights of women only if they wore hijab and adhered to other aspects of Sharia. In fact, the Taliban “guaranteed” women’s rights “within the limits of Islam.” Read more HERE.
The Taliban is fashioning its government after the model of Iran, under the control of Islamic clerics. It is ridiculous to imagine any possible rights for women, infidels, apostates, and gays there as long as the Taliban remains in power. The Taliban also intends to spread the Sharia to the whole world, and will use any donated resources toward that cause first.
“UN chief slams ‘broken’ Taliban promises made to women, girls,” Al Jazeera, October 11, 2021:
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has slammed the Taliban’s “broken” promises to Afghan women and girls, and urged the world to inject cash into Afghanistan in order to prevent its economic collapse.
“I am particularly alarmed to see promises made to Afghan women and girls by the Taliban being broken,” he told reporters on Monday in New York.
“I strongly appeal to the Taliban to keep their promises to women and girls and fulfil their obligations under international human rights and humanitarian law.”
Millions of teenage girls across Afghanistan still await to return to school, while the Taliban allowed boys to attend classes last month. The move has raised concerns about the future of female education under the Taliban, who have pledged to uphold the rights of girls and women in the country when they took over power in August.
The exclusion of girls at this time has aggravated fears that the Taliban could be returning to their hardline rule of the 1990s. During that time, women and girls were legally barred from education and employment.
The group has also named an all-male cabinet, and said that women could be included later.
Guterres said he is “alarmed” to see promises “be broken”, adding that gender equality is a priority for him.
“Broken promises leads to broken dreams for the women and girls of Afghanistan,” the UN chief said. “Women and girls need to be in the centre of attention,” he added.
In his address, Guterres also urged the international community to “inject liquidity into the Afghan economy to avoid collapse”.
“We need to find ways to help the economy breathe again … And this can be done without violating international laws,” he said…..

when will the world wake up to that Muslims lie and lie and lie then scream that the US lies. Islam screams victims over and over again. Just like this story Sharia Laws Woman are to not be seen or heard. Just rise children and make the food and the Rise the children Girls until the age of six were they can be married off and boys are tough to kill
JCA Reid says
NO they haven’t! Just following orders as laid down by Islamic Teachings. After all, what’s the problem? It is THE Perfect Religion.
John says
Let’s pretend it’s July 1940. “One month after the evacuation of forces from Dunkirk, and the Nazi conquest of Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and France completed, Leage of Nations president asks the USA and Britain for cash to help the Nazis feed and care for the conquered masses.”
“(All the French, Dutch and other allied soldiers rescued at Dunkirk will be repatriated to the USA Canada Australia and New Zealand as refugees, given public housing, food stamps, and free health insurance for life. Negotiations with the Nazi authorities to bring their wives, children, and family members have begun)”

No different, but the blind can’t see past the ends of their noses, can’t see reality for the fake reality they have concocted. And then, expect the rest of us who have eyes wide open to believe they “know best.”

UN actions defeat right-thinking minds.
somehistory says
;Oh, well, they haven’t stopped kidnapping, forcing parents to give them their little girls for daily rape and call it “marriage” and the children “brides,”
and they haven’t stopped beheading people and hanging the dead heads from cranes and threatening this will happen to others they don’t like,
they haven’t stopped the disgusting practice of raping young boys which the *non* taliban mozlums did while the U.S. had military stationed there and were forced to allow it, through the nightly screams from the little kids being horribly abused;
and they haven’t stopped threatening nations…including the U.S. with terror attacks, after insuring their operatives flew on free flights into the U.S. & other places;
and they have told everyone to MYOB because they are in charge now and they’ll run things as the fake profhet (sic), the mass-murdering, raper of children, sex-mad, slave-trading thief, ugly sack of filthy maggot dung, lying son of satan the devil, commanded them to…and liking it.
So, what if girls can’t go to school and women can’t get jobs. That’s nothing compared to the rest of what they are doing in “governing” that foul country. Who would really expect them to keep any ‘promises’ about anything? The little girls are too busy being raped to death & the women too bruised from the beatings, anyway.
Give them cash? Not if the sane of us, the moral ones among us, had anything to say about it….Trouble is, we don’t Evil is in charge and evil supports evil, so the control freaks in the taliban will get cash aplenty from the control freaks who gather up tax-payer money.
Walter Sieruk says
Of course the disingenuous and outright lying Taliban will, would and did break their promise of respecting women’s rights. There is no doubt that they ever intended to keep that promise they had made.
When a Taliban spokesman in referring to the question of the basic human rights of females, both girls and women, he declared” We guarantee all their rights within the limits of Islam.”
All aware people who understand Islam know that the last four words of that statement has an obvious meaning.
Which is that with Islam the rights of females are very limited. As in within the Islamic view, they have little to no rights at all. .
As this has been so well explained by Brigitte Gabriel in her book, entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED in Chapter 9 of the title “Islam’s Contempt for Women” which informs its reader on page 171 “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islamic ideology.”
In addition, on the next page it further reads” Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.”
The tragic and sad reality is that Islam is a religion of brutal, cruel, harsh and even, at times, murderous misogyny.
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
DazzleMe says
Walter
Exactly, why would anyone expect that muslims would honor agreement. They plan to kill everyone who is an infidel. Biden is brain dead along with his administration. As people say “it’s all by design.” Unless Americans stand up on their hind legs and say no (including government employees), our country is doomed! The voting system is broken thanks to democrats so I am not convinced it will ever work again unless only Patriots are in power. Be prepared for a war between Patriots and Evil. With all coming through border, evil may be more prominent.
I would have never thought I would see this in my lifetime, but it’s here and not going to be very pleasant.
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, undeluded Islamic evil.

I can’t stand this character, Guterres, at all ,but i suppose the UN would be aiming to try to prevent the ordinary people in Afghanistan from starving to death. However, it would probably make more sense to give absolutely nothing to that country while the Taliban are in charge and try to destroy the place and, hopefully, get rid of the Taliban. Probably nothing will get rid of these subhuman scum from the taliban, but it does sound ridiculous to give a country where the Taliban are in charge any financial aid whatsoever.
somehistory says
It’s difficult to see photos of the little kids in rags, winter is coming and they look hungry.
However, giving the taliban cash won’t change one cotton-pickin’ thing regarding the little kids going hungry and cold.
The taliban made bundles of cash on their poppy crops way before the military from different nations went in to make them pay for bin laden’s terror attacks.
The photos out of afghanistan then showed kids hungry, cold and the women in garbage bags. The taliban were not sharing the loot with the people who needed it,
They still grow poppy crops. They are still making bundles, and they sold some of the U.S. military stuff to iran. None of this will be used to help the people.
Any and all cash sent there will be used for filling the taliban with food and funding terror.
tim gallagher says
I agree, somehistory, that the taliban will be extremely unlikely to let any aid go to the starving masses. The monsters who make up the Taliban show over and over again that they don’t have any humanity at all and wouldn’t give a damn about starving children or anyone else. As you say, the scum that make up the Taliban would use the aid money to fund their terrorist enterprises and feed themselves copious amounts of food.
saturnine says
The tacit reason to “inject liquidity” and prop up the Afghan economy is to forestall yet another wave of Muslim migration to Europe. Essentially, “If we feed them over there, we won’t have to feed them over here.”
Maybe it’ll work out better than Bush’s version: “We’ll fight them over there so we don’t have to face them in the USA”, which became, “We can’t win over there, so let’s bring them here.”
OLD GUY says
How about we stop feeding them over there or fighting them over there and just shut off all economic and traffic to and from muslim/islamic countries. If they are in our countries and break OUR laws deport them.
It’s time to stop playing nice with these people and let them live in their own mess.
DazzleMe says
OLD GUY,
You are right, we feed and make nice to the whole damn world. It’s time that we look after only Americans and only do what we have to wart off war. Only do bare minimum around the world. People in charge of this country are way too generous with Americans hard earned money. America needs to be self-sufficient and we have that ability if it was taken advantage of.

UN chief claims Taliban broke promises on women’s rights, yet urges world to ‘inject cash into Afghanistan’
……….
Utter insanity. At least the last time the Taliban was in power they were mostly kept isolated. This time it’s worse…
