  1. Sorry we’re not home right now but please leave a message after the beep.  If you’d like to make a call, please check the number and dial again.

  2. This is where the world could apply women’s human rights pressure.

    And send only women to assist (kidding)

  3. Those poor civilians….

    But yes let’s help the Taliban of all people..

  5. Fuck the taliban. Sure we’ll send you aide if you start treating your women and girls as human beings

  6. I understand taliban bad. But they’re the ruling government in Afghanistan and that’s what you do during natural disasters. And we did kinda destabilize their country for a while.

  9. I know everyone wants to feel high and mighty about this, but let’s not forget there are thousands of civilians who didn’t choose the Taliban that are suffering right now and there’s no reason they shouldn’t be helped.

  11. This would never happen but: Send aid only if

    1: they allow you to safely erect sanctuaries where the aid can be distributed.

    2: Only Women/girls/boys <18 are allowed in

    3: Men may only enter if they pledge to uphold women’s rights and agree to safe, non-discriminatory conduct within the sanctuary. (Their names broadcasted over social media platforms)

  13. Yes the taliban sucks but 99% of the people injured are just civilians trapped in oppression.

  14. Would love to take some of the injured women and their children and provide for them medically and give them US visas. Afghanistan deserves nothing for abandoning women in the country to the Taliban, but those poor women deserve to escape and deserve medical care

  16. Perhaps the world should offer assistance to women only? And children, of course.

  18. The Taliban may steal the aid. The women went to help will be treated like garbage. The terrorists have no right to ask for help. Sell their weapons for aid. Stop making explosives and the Taliban will have more time figuring out how to help the civilians.

  20. Yeah we tried to help for two decades. You are on your fucking own.

  23. Free your women and children and maybe people will be more sympathetic. But as far as I’m concerned, I wouldn’t lift a finger to help a single one of the men.

  26. Its like when I tell my nephew, if you keep fighting everyone, no one will play with you no matter how many toys you got.

  28. Taliban asks world for help in treating females as animals

  29. So we can send money for narcotic control but not humanitarian aid? Sounds about right.
