With the U.S. gone, if you thought what ISIS did in Iraq was bad, just wait until you see the revenge the Taliban has planned for Afghanistan’s women.
On Tuesday, Phyllis Chesler wrote here that “Afghan feminists should be on the first plane out,” explaining that those women who dared to speak out for women’s rights during the long war in Afghanistan, and who got educations and jobs, will be killed while the ones who survive will be banished again to burqas and domestic imprisonment. Even Chesler’s grim prediction, however, couldn’t cover how terrible it will be for women under the Taliban: In time-honored Islamic fashion, the Taliban are demanding that, in those areas they’ve conquered, all women between 15 and 45 must be identified so that they can be “married” to Taliban fighters and taken to Pakistan.
According to Ashlyn Davis, writing at FrontPage Magazine,
Having captured key districts and border posts with Iran, Pakistan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, the Taliban are now hunting for women in these areas. “All imams and mullahs in captured areas should provide the Taliban with a list of girls above 15 and widows under 45 to be married to Taliban fighters,” read a letter issued in the name of the Taliban’s Cultural Commission for Islamic preachers in the region. The Taliban has promised to marry these women to their fighters and take them to Pakistan’s Waziristan. There, these women will be converted to Islam and reintegrated.
That’s not even the beginning of the parade of horribles. Most of these marriages are not really marriages. These women are sex slaves. And even if there is a real “marriage,” explains Davis, should their jihadi husbands die,
Abandoned by society, these widows are forced to marry the next Taliban fighter in line,

It is not a surprise that democRATs love islam and hate Christianity.
And we keep saying Muslims are just grand. These Taliban are Muslims with the original cry of the Muslims...Kill all the Christians and Jews....and world domination.
Liberals will be unmoved by the plight of the Afghans because — You know, the United States is just the worst. Has there ever been a more oppressive, terrible place than America? I mean, we invented slavery, right?
>>and take them to Pakistan’s Waziristan<<
One reason neither we nor the Russians could eradicate the Taliban, is because they really were headquartered in Pakistan, which provided safe sanctuary.
Remember where we had to go to get Osama bin Laden.
The Taliban targets women who dared to speak out. The American fascists target white men and boys who dare to try to live their lives as white men and boys. The Taliban have nothing on our new DC masters. The only difference, we can fight back if push comes to shove. At least for the time being we have the capability to fight back.
Recall that Obama said that A-stan was the right war. It’s poetic justice it will be lost on Biden’s watch. I hope there is video of panicked staff being evacuated by helicopter from the embassy roof. After the fall of Kabul, there will be a news blackout.
With all the problems in this country I could care less about Afghanistan.
It’s a 1400 year tradition.
“Remember where we had to go to get Osama bin Laden.”
Unless it was all theater for public consumption, we supposedly did not let the Pakistani government know about the planned operation either.
Meh. There's nothing "poetic" about the fact nobody will ever hear of it. See my tagline.
If the Afghan government hasn't learned how to drink by now they never will.
Whatever happens in that country with the Taliban is on them, not us.
Obama considered Afghanistan the good war because he saw a way to strengthen Islamic radials and damage Americas military and it's international prestige using the Afghan war as his tool
We won Afghanistan but Obama co opted the war and turned it into quagmire used wear down our military, waste resources and demoralize our troops with pointless goals and insane rules of engagement
He also gave aid and comfort the Taliban and that is how we got to this point
NOW is AWOL....STILL
And feminists around the world are where, exactly?
Oh, the same place they are when FGM occurs.
And school girls are locked in a burning school to burn to death by the *Morality Police*.
And when there are images of women being held in cages.
Western feminists are such hypocrites.
Horrific. This is what defeat looks like.
I really do not care. It’s there damn problem now.
I don’t think they let Obama know either, until it was too late...
Not my circus, not my monkeys, let the NOW Gang handle it.
Afghanistan had 20 years on my dime to fix this.
