With the war against global terrorism having had been fought, the results being the freeing of the nation of Afghanistan from the Taliban, came the freeing of its women. With that having happened, women in that country now are running for seats in the Afghan Parliament. A quarter of the seats that are reserved for female members of the Afghan Parliament. There are even billboards showing women candidates who state their positions. Plus what would be called in the USA “meet and greet” sessions, going on in the courtyards of mosques. Talking about the issues that concerned them as citizens in that country, even with the outside pressures put on them. What this video presents is one of the “fruits” of the liberation of the nation of Afghanistan from the dictatorship of the Taliban weeks after America suffered its worse attack ever on September 11th, 2001.

A GIANT THANK-YOU to not only my nephew-in-law Richard, but to all our American armed forces men and women for freeing Afghanistan and its women from the Taliban.
