The Taliban’s announcement that it is resuming publicly stoning women to death has been enabled by the international community’s silence, human rights groups have said.
Safia Arefi, a lawyer and head of the Afghan human rights organisation Women’s Window of Hope, said the announcement had condemned Afghan women to return to the darkest days of Taliban rule in the 1990s.
Why do we still accept the Taliban as a legitimate governing body? They are a bunch of thugs and war lords, with no sense of justice.
I mean it’s the fucking taliban what did you expect
As shit as it was to thanklessly send kids to die in that damn sandbox for two decades, it kept a lid on this type of crap
Edit spelling
To the surprise of no one.
“Fun” fact:
ISIS is actually fighting the Taliban because, in their eyes, they’re *not extreme enough*.
Maybe they ca. Co chair womens rights comission with saudi arabia
Pakistan just sent a trade delegation to Kabul. Just fyi.
Guys I’m beginning to think these Taliban guys are kind of old fashioned about women’s rights.
Im quite sure Saudi Arabia will do something about this right?
Sounds about right. A lot of the world is turning on women right now. The UN signaled their indifference by letting Saudi Arabia lead the women’s rights forum, in the US our right wing zealots are trying to ban all abortions with no exceptions. And now the Taliban says “you call that suffering? زما بیر ونیسئ”
They are going to be next on the chair for women’s rights at this rate.
At least Afghanistan is “free” from bad American colonialism now
Such a wasted effort by the US for 20 years. We killed our troops there *for nothing*
Horror, or resigned apathy? I mean that’s what the population wanted, at least, enough to not fight it.
Afghanistan didn’t rank literal lowest in population’s happiness this year for nothing, I guess. Horrific
I know it’s an unpopular view these days but we could colonise the region.
“Guys, guys, guys! You got it all wrong. We didn’t say we were going to *START* stoning women, we said we were going to *RESUME* stoning women! It’s completely different!”
14mio women live there? I hope they can get out of this trap.
Islam is the shit stain of the earth.
And that’s how most (especially male) Afghanis like it. People in the West completely don’t understand that these people live, breathe and eat Islam, it is the most important if not the only important part of the their life. They would rather live in an Islamic shithole rather than a secular utopia.
Lmao the country is suffering from every kind of economic troubles that one can imagine, and what plan are they proposing ? Stoning women to death.
Don’t know if adultery cases are that frequent in this hell, but I’m pretty sure that these scums are women hating gays.
If we stop stoning women to death, it will be a slippery slope! What’s next, women driving?
Running a country is a real bore. So back to medieval killing methods.
It makes me really fucking sad that these women had a hint of freedom for 20 years, a *taste* of modernity and equality, and it was stripped away from them so fucking fast.
Take heed my fellow Americans.
25 years later and this time it’s not just gonna be some grainy footage taken on a broke down handicam. This is a horror show. Full stop.
Gotta love radical religious beliefs. That’s sarcasm. I hate religion, especially theirs.
Islam is the finest religion .. exhibit A
Islam, the religion of love and peace
I’m sure the Saudi led UN women’s rights forum will be perfectly fine with it.
Again, I say this objectively, how can Islam exist in a modern society? I’m not saying other religions are not without deserved criticism as well (looking at you Catholicism), but damn does Islam give fundamentalist believers the ability to launder in shitty behaviors and ideas.
Cancers to the world
> “You may call it a violation of women’s rights when we publicly stone or flog them for committing adultery because they conflict with your democratic principles,” he said, adding: “[But] I represent Allah, and you represent Satan.”
An argument used by religious zealots, from many different religions, for centuries. Fuck religion. But Fuck the Taliban in particular. And ISIS.
We should have spent 20 years training and arming all the women in the country to be the military force
Some cultures are better than others,
People stoning women isn’t one of them
What?! A radical group of Muslims is doing exactly what radical Muslims do!!?!
Who could’ve seen this coming?!?
If only we could’ve had some kind of warning!
What is the one thing in common that Saudi Arabia, Iran, Afghanistan/the Taliban and ISIS share which make them so violent?
I’m sure they will be marching and protesting all over major cities and universities in the west about this.
Any minute now.
I hate Islam
It was an embarrassment to watch the Afghanistan civic and military infrastructure just fold over and surrender to these extremists. And now they’re undoing whatever little progress was made during this time.
> The **Taliban’s supreme leader, Hibatullah Akhundzada**, announced at the weekend that the group would begin enforcing its interpretation of sharia law in Afghanistan, including reintroducing the public **flogging and stoning of women for adultery**.
> In an audio broadcast on the Taliban-controlled Radio Television Afghanistan last Saturday, Akhundzada said: “We will flog the women … we will stone them to death in public [for adultery].

So Satan *doesn’t* stone and flog people? Hmm…Team Satan?
” Democratic principles” How about human principles?
Fucking un civilized cultures. Prehistoric backwards unintelligent stuck in the past cultures.
If only we could extract all the people that want to move on to the modern age and then just bomb the fuck out of the rest.
You know what, maybe the Taliban are kind of a bunch of dicks.
“Now, no one is standing beside them to save them from Taliban punishments. The international community has chosen to remain silent in the face of these violations of women’s rights.”
No win situation. The only way to stop it is to send troops. They can’t seriously be calling for another invasion can they?
Fucking cavemen
This is what the people who shout “Free Palestine” are signing that region up for. Palestine is in control of Hamas. Hamas is a religious fundamentalist terrorist organization. Once Palestine is “free” they will be able to implement more women’s rights activities such as this.
Please name one Muslim majority country that champions human rights. Just one that can be looked too when under the religious Muslim laws that isn’t a fucking dystopian hellscape.
