Where is the NOW women when you need them?

[ThreePuttinDude]

It is just amazing, after 3 1/2 years
Amnesty International finally has a grasp of the obvious.

Yeeehhaaww they're finally catching on....

[USAfearsnobody]

In its report, Amnesty called on the government and the international community to do more to improve the lives of women.

You see? I didn't even have to read the whole thing to know that they needed to blame US, and make no mistake, its US they are after. Liberal organization didn't give a damn about pre-U.S. Afghanistan and Iraq. Only when we come in does it start running its mouth. Calls for the "international community" to improve the IMPROVED lives of woman, give me a flying break.

Wonder what's happening in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Sudan, Ethiopia, Algeria, Indonesia, Morocco, Tunisia,....???

Afghan women are in constant risk of abduction, rape and forced marriage and the government is doing little to address their plight, the human rights group Amnesty International said in a report released Monday

Wow, lets thank old AI for that news flash, huh?

[coconutt2000]

News flash to Amnesty International...

*** THAT IS OLD NEWS ***

Fundamentalist Islam is opposed to women's rights to equality. We destroyed the fundamentalist Taliban regime, and in doing so we have set the stage for a greater role for women in the Afghan society.

But Rome wasn't built in a day, and social change takes generations, not 3 1/2 years. Yet, without the Freedom our country purchased in blood, and the aid provided by our many allies in Afghanistan, that social change would be impossible, and women would suffer the small mindedness of extremist Islam, rather than have the hope that their daughters and granddaughters will live in an Afghanistan where Freedom and Liberty will reign for all Afghan men and woman alike.

I wonder why they aren't focusing on the treatment of women in the Palestinian Territories, which is far worse than Afghanistan... Hmmmm.....

Hmmm...Sounds like a job for The Second Amendment Sisters.
