No kidding.
"The [UN] Secretary General is particularly concerned about the future of women and girls, whose hard-won rights must be protected," the statement said.
"World Ends. Women and minorities affected most." Can you feel the surge of feminist outrage? Me neither.
What does the UN have to do with how the Pashtun treat their women?
It’s hardly appropriate to refer to customs imposed by a foreign conqueror (and a weak one at that) as “hard won rights” that “must be respected”.
The Pashtun have, I believe, the right of self-rule under that stupid UN “charter”. This is what democracy looks like.
