It’s also the country that most fully and scrupulously implements Islamic law regarding women. Many would insist that there is no connection. But does that not strain credulity?
“Protesters: Afghanistan now most dangerous for women,” by Fidel Rahmati, Khaama Press, March 8, 2024:
[“]Women’s Freedom Movement” has labeled the Taliban’s actions against women as “gender apartheid” on the occasion of International Women’s Day.
The group asserts that Afghanistan under Taliban control is “the most dangerous and insecure place in the world for Afghan girls and women.”
In a resolution issued on Thursday, March 7th the Women’s Freedom Movement highlighted the hardships faced by women under Taliban rule, stating that women face “arbitrary arrests, torture, mass rape, and killings” in their fight for rights.
The resolution states that Afghan women have been taken hostage by the Taliban.
These women protesters have cited over 85 decrees issued since the Taliban’s takeover, banning or restricting rights to education, employment, freedom of travel, freedom of speech, cultural activities, sports, and public services….

At least it’s their own.
More dangerous generally in Braford-istan, Rotherham, Rochdale…

No doubt these feminists are right about Afghanistan which has to be the most backward, hardline of Muslim countries. However, the feminists often do seem to give islam an easy time. No Muslim country would allow girls and women to live a pleasant life. Feminists should tell the truth and say that all of islam is a barbaric, misogynistic ideology but it seems that they often fail to do so.

We all saw photos and videos of what the taliban does to women when all the news orgs sent women reporters….Diane Sawyer, Ashley Banfield…to afghanistan back about 20 years ago.
Black sacks hurrying through the dirt streets, being whipped along by taliban members with huge sticks. Young black sacks in holes being stoned for being pregnant, or accused of adultery.
There was a reprieve for some years, when the taliban didn’t have control everywhere in country. Schools allowed girls, women took over some jobs and some hair could be seen along with eyes and hands.
Today, it’s just like it was then., before the little bit of freedom shown through.
But, what about the infidel …mostly Christian…girls and women in places like Nigeria, Sudan, and other African nations? They are being raped, kidnapped, murdered and their families killed, their homes burned.
Afghanistan may be the most dangerous for mozlum females, but any nation where mozlums are in control is dangerous for all other females.

Not very long ago, a Taliban spokesman answered a question asked of him about 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.

The Taliban have banned women from the university because the Islam is a religion of oppressive misogyny and their regime in Afghanistan is based on Islam with its Sharia.
The Taliban want the women trapped in Afghanistan to under the darkness tyranny and oppression of Sharia. Therefore, they ban them from receiving an education.
As Thomas Jefferson had, so wisely, declared “Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppression of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.”

“Feminist group says Afghanistan under Taliban control is ‘most dangerous place in the world for Afghan girls and women”
The Taliban emerged in the aftermath of the Afghan War (1978–92). I guess I should say to the feminist group, better late than never, glad you finally woke up, welcome to the party girls.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Ronald Reagan
James Lincoln says
tgusa,
I remember when Pres. Reagan made that quote.
He predicted the current situation in the United States with amazing prescience.
tgusa says
James,
Reagan inspired me. He was the first President I ever voted for and I’m still proud of that. He was the reason I joined the military to do my part in supporting his policies. This was in spite of the fact that I am not usually a joiner and have a pretty uncompromising independent streak. Doing that was and is my greatest compromise in life. Back in the day the left (democrats) were saying that Reagan was going to get up all blown up in a thermonuclear war. What idiots they were and still are.
James Lincoln says
tgusa,
Thank you for your service, and best wishes.
tgusa says
In the run-up to the 1984 election traitorous Ted Kennedy reached out to the USSR for assistance in defeating Reagan. Some people today are surprised by the traitors in the democrat party but that really shouldn’t be a surprise. They have always been destructive traitors. In 84 Reagan won 49 states. Mondale won Minnesota (and of course DC).
Nothing has changed except for what biden accidentally stated, “We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics,”
Crats cannot win in a legit election hence the lying cheating and stealing.

> Feminist group says Afghanistan under Taliban control is ‘most dangerous place in the world for Afghan girls and women’
I don’t think they are feminist group, they are just some women who are protesting their harsh life under Taliban.
>According to the group, the Taliban’s policies are not in line with the desires, culture, and religion of the Afghan people.
These women are still defending Islam by saying Taliban’s policies are not in line with Islam. Doesn’t Islam allow muslims to kill, rape torture the enemies of Islam including the so called hypocrites?
