Why would any believing Muslim want to leave? They’re implementing Sharia, the law of Allah. What could possibly be the downside?
“Taliban ban Afghans from evacuating amid massive security sweep,” AFP, February 28, 2022:
The Taliban have clamped down on Afghans leaving the country as, separately, their forces continue a massive security sweep, going house-to-house across the capital Monday in a “clearing operation.”
The new travel ban was announced late Sunday by Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid, who packaged the restrictions as being aimed at preventing hardship for Afghans abroad.
Evacuations organized by nations or non-governmental organizations were banned, while even families attempting to leave the country by their own means now need “an excuse,” or they will be stopped by immigration.
“I have to say clearly that persons who leave the country along with their families and have no excuse… we are preventing them,” Mujahid told a press conference late Sunday.
Women will also not be able to fly abroad unless accompanied by a male relative – mirroring similar domestic restrictions introduced last year, which bar solo travel between cities and towns.
“If they (women) want to travel abroad, they should have a chaperone,” Mujahid said.
“This is the order of Islamic sharia law.”…

Afghanistan: Taliban clamp down on people trying to leave their Sharia paradise
……………………
Standard totalitarian behavior, whether Fascist, Communist, or Islamic. *Ugh*.
Fitna says
Exactly Graven, call it what you will but it’s just another form of Fascism, extreme repression of individuals with brutal punishments and barbaric and sadistic behavior.
It’s a totalitarian state’s paradise, what everyone’s feared in the West is commonplace in Islamic countries. It’s the exact opposite of nations that value freedom, equality, human rights, etc.
There’s no way out for them except warfare, escape or suicide.

At this point, I support the Taliban on this attempt of theirs. The bulk of Afghan refugees, as we have seen, turn out to be pedos or worse. Only on very rare cases do I see Afghans actually apostatize and switch to other faiths, be it Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism or Zoroastrianism.
Given that, I’d much rather the Taliban kept them there rather than they come to places like Malmo, Bradford, Brussels, Hamtramck, et al and find themselves in the crosshairs of the law for doing something that they were always taught was normal

Herre’s the way it is: mozlums want everyone else to live by the lawlessness of the filthy, unholy book. Any individual mozlum who says the/she wants the corruption applied by the government, does not really want to live by the strict *interpretation*….what guy wants his hand cut off if he happens to take something not belonging to him; and what woman wants to be stoned if she isn’t wearing the bag from head to foot if she decides she would rather not?
But, those who get to dish out punishment want to be able to dish it out; and those who wish to do as they please while remaining mozlum, leave for greener pastures where less severe punishments are meted out for breaking the laws.
It’s much like the experiment years ago where some college students were placed in positions of prisoners and others were made “guards” over these. The “guards” became really abusive. Had they been put in the prisoner positions, they would not have wanted to be dealt with as they were dealing it out to the other students.
Only masochists like pain and suffering for themselves, but a psychopath enjoys hurting others. mozlums have many psychopaths in their ranks.

Sung to the tune of The Candy Man:
Who can leave Afghanistan?
no one wants to stay
even on an aeroplane you have to be a male
The Taliban, Oh the Taliban Ban
Who can make Sharia?
Make it just for you
Add to it a stoning & a beating a of a Jew
The Taliban, Oh the Taliban Ban
The Taliban Bans everything it hates
you can say goodbye to wishes
but the men can join the new Militias
women just do the dishes
Oh who can save Afghanistan?
BIden didn’t try
He left behind the weapons so Islam could occupy
The Creepy Joe, Oh The Creepy Joe can

Unsurprising video in which a Talib can’t conceal his contempt toward the female interviewer https://twitter.com/RichardHanania/status/1494178708860465152

Yes–absolute contempt on the part of this Jihadist. She may not know much about Islam–I’m sure she doesn’t–but to her credit she does not back down. I’m sure this thug would like to drag her to a hole in the ground and stone her to death.
Not that the Taliban are not even pretending any more that they support equal rights for women
James Lincoln says
Excellent link, saturnine.
abu taleb says
Islam leaders always want to have full power over its people so that they can control and get rich for themselves. That is what Islam was designed for. That is why Islam doesn’t allow people leaving Islam or, in this case leaving to other places because Islam leaders need them.
PMK says
Persons who leave the country with their families and ‘have no excuse’?
Why isn’t jihad an excuse? Just tell the Taliban you are prepared to attack whatever country you’re going to. Islam allows you to lie in the furtherance of jihad, doesn’t it?
Like Infidel, I am just as happy to see them rot in Afghanistan, given that most of them thought Taliban rule was preferable to freedom.
The question is: what stops any of them from lying about their reasons for leaving?
OLD GUY says
Sharia paradise or should they have said Taliban Sharia shithole. Next question should be why would they want to leave paradise?
