Democrats Refuse To Drink Water As It's Also Prescribed To Horseshttps://t.co/SWgBkrdnSF— The Babylon Bee (@TheBabylonBee) September 2, 2021
That post was *not* there when I looked! 😛
LOL
A lot of people have been getting upset about this one, so we would like to clarify: the joke is that Democrats are refusing to drink water as it's also prescribed to horses. We hope this clears things up and we will do better https://t.co/Sv1H5Wt90f— The Babylon Bee (@TheBabylonBee) September 3, 2021
Older men, young girls? I’m sure Biden approves.
Thanks! I saw that the Taliban were sharing their spoils with Iran.

A Volusia County restaurant owner angry about the deaths of 13 U.S. service members killed in last week’s suicide bombing at the airport in Kabul, Afghanistan, blames President Biden and says she no longer welcomes his supporters at her business.
Angie Ugarte, owner of the DeBary Diner, posted a sign on the front door reading: “If you voted for and continue to support and stand behind the worthless, inept and corrupt administration currently inhabiting the White House that is complicit in the death of our servicemen and women in Afghanistan, please take your business elsewhere.”
It must be fun to work as an editor at The Bee. All the articles being run past you for a decision of what to post.
Very nice!!
In the complaint, Ouweleen alleged the regulation violated his constitutional rights and was not justified by science, citing confirmation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that vaccination does not prevent transmission of SARS CoV-2.
Totally refreshing! Glad to see SOMEONE has some common sense.
Leave the men and take the girls. I forgot, we have to respect their culture. Multiple wives too?
I wonder if they rubber-stamp the rejected stories with ‘NOT CRAZY ENOUGH!’. LOL
LOL. You’re probably right about that.
This is part of a long article about the travels of a Peace Corps woman.
Which brings me to Afghanistan. Kate McCord lived in Afghanistan for nine years. Her book, In the Land of Blue Burqas, describes daily life for Afghan women. You can get a sense of the book here. Just one incident: an Afghan woman told McCord that she dare not sing inside her own home because a passing man might overhear and become sexually aroused at the sound of her voice and think sinful thoughts. She, the woman, would of course, in Muslim understanding, be guilty for his sin. When I think of Afghanistan, I think of that nameless prisoner of gender apartheid. Nameless not only because McCord, who herself goes by a pseudonym, cannot name her for her own safety. Nameless because women in village Afghanistan are “mother” or “sister” or “daughter.” They are not individuals with names. The same was true in Nepal. All my students knew their fathers’ names. One knew his mother’s name. Only one.
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of Farkhunda Malikzada. A mob of Afghan men lynched Farkhunda, and gleefully videotaped their crime, in Kabul, the capital city, on March 19, 2015, well into the American project to “modernize” Afghanistan. Men beat Farkhunda so badly that she was soaked with blood and when they tried to burn her alive, her clothing would not catch. The men ripped up their own clothing to use as kindling. “According to an eyewitness, protesters were chanting anti-American and anti-democracy slogans while beating the woman.” They also shouted “Allahu akbar.”
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of Greg Buckley Jr.
“In his last phone call home, Lance Cpl. Gregory Buckley Jr. told his father that from his bunk he could hear Afghan police officers sexually abusing boys they had brought to the base.
‘At night we can hear them screaming, but we’re not allowed to do anything about it,’ the Marine’s father, Gregory Buckley Sr., recalled his son telling him before he was shot to death at the base in 2012. He urged his son to tell his superiors. ‘My son said that his officers told him to look the other way because it’s their culture.’”
The Frontline documentary, “The Dancing Boys of Afghanistan,” details the Afghan custom of bacha bazi. Young boys, vulnerable because of poverty, are turned into sex toys for adult men. There is also bacha posh, in which Afghan girls pretend to be boys so that their families can use them to shop, go to school, and engage in other activities denied to girls. There is also a superstition that dressing an unwanted daughter as a wanted son will cause the magical forces that control birth to bless a mother with a son.
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of Abdul Rahman, who converted to Christianity. His family ratted him out. In 2006, he was arrested for owning a Bible. Not a single lawyer in Afghanistan would represent him. The Constitution of Afghanistan, prepared with American assistance, defers to Islamic law, which demands death for apostates from Islam. Rahman had to flee Afghanistan.
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of photos I’ve seen of would-be refugees at the airport, on the planes, and on the migration routes to Iran, Turkey, and eventually Europe. In the photos, virtually every one is a military-age male. They are not fighting the Taliban. They are not protecting their mothers, wives, sisters, or daughters. They are turning tail, leaving women to fates like this: Najia, an Afghan widowed mother of four, was beaten to death by the Taliban because she was too poor to give them food. After the murder, Taliban blew up Najia’s orphaned children’s home with a grenade.
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of Roshan, all of 8 years old, acting goofy in her wedding photo. Her husband is 55. Her father had to sell her because he is poor. You can see her photo here. Because Mohammed, the perfect human, married his favorite wife, Aisha, when he was over fifty and she was six, devout Muslims argue against any age of consent laws. Child marriage is epidemic in Afghanistan.
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of the Bamiyan Buddhas, “the largest examples of standing Buddha carvings in the world,” that survived for 1,400 years, till the Taliban blew them to smithereens.
Afghans killing other Afghans just to stop girls from going to school predates the Taliban. King Amanullah’s wife, Queen Soraya, opened Afghanistan’s first girls’ schools in 1921. “A warlord, Habibullah Kalakani … marched on Kabul, overthrew Amanullah, and took power. Kalakani called the King a kafir (non-believer), closed girls’ schools, revived the veil, and abolished all the other basic reforms of Amanullah.”
One can reject communism, and yet, at the same time, hate the reasons the mujaheddin gave for fighting communism. In the 1970s, Afghan communists pushed for Afghan women to learn to read. Once again, devout Afghan Muslims rose up to kill and be killed, just to prevent girls from learning to read. “The reforms encroached into the sensitive area of Islamic subjugation of women by outlawing child marriage and the giving of a woman in marriage in exchange for money or commodities, and teaching women to read, at a time when certain Islamic sectors were openly calling for the reinforcement of purdah, the seclusion of women from public observation.”
When I think of Afghanistan, I think of numbers. In a 2013 Pew Poll, 99% of Afghans voiced support for making sharia the law of the land. 61% of that 99% want to apply sharia to non-Muslims. 81% support whipping and hand amputation for thieves; 85% support stoning for adultery; 79% support death for apostasy.
For decades, Afghanistan has been among the top refugee-producing countries . “There are almost 2.5 million registered refugees from Afghanistan. They comprise the largest protracted refugee population in Asia, and the second largest refugee population in the world.” Afghans vote with their feet. Afghans do not want to live in Afghanistan. One such refugee described to Douglas Murray why he left. He had a job in the ministry of education. The Taliban kidnapped him, tortured him, and repeatedly raped him. They told him that he had no god; they were his god. Why did the Taliban do this? To force the man to help them to poison the water serving a school with 700 pupils, whom they hoped to murder, in order to stop them from learning. All in the name of Allah.

🤣😂🤣😂
I was very surprised too.
Sydney has a community of illegal Chinese that have snuck in on ships.
They have Irish that have overstayed their visas.
When our US citizen son, Aussie DIL and US born GD moved to Australia from Vegas you wouldn’t believe the hoops son had to jump through.
Took forever for him to get a Visa.
They even did an investigation on us to make sure he didn’t have a criminal family, I kid you not.
He now has duel citizenship as do the GD’s but because DIL doesn’t have American citizenship Biden banned her from coming into the US to visit.
