'No one cares about us': Crying Afghan girl shares fears of 'dying slowly in history' in viral video as her country is taken over by the Taliban
UK Daily Mail ^ | August 16, 2021 | Sandra Salathe

A heartbreaking video of an Afghan girl voicing her anguish at the world's treatment of her country has gone viral, days before the Taliban successfully established their control on Sunday.

The emotional video has already garnered millions of views after being posted to Twitter by human rights activist Masih Alinejad, and features a crying girl whose identity remains unknown.

'We don't count because we were born in Afghanistan,' the tearful girl explains in the 45-second clip.

Not being able to do anything, because those in power need a primitive society to continue to rule, is not evidence of not caring. It’s just an inability to make changes.

It’s also the fault of the Afghans for an unwillingness to create their own culture of freedom.

One of the last things she says: "Isn't it funny?"

Well, I don't know -- IS it?

These are nothing more than propaganda, as far as I'm concerned. It's not that I don't care. It's just that I don't trust anyone in government or the media to tell me the truth about anything.

Leftists say it is “liberating” for wonen”, I mean “birthing persons” to wear burquas.

It would appear none of your family or friends and neighbors care enough to fight off the Taliban?

But I get it,too.
Because sometimes it seems like no one in the US cares either.
Unless they benefit from it politically and or financially?

I’m absolutely reveling in the complete LACK of coverage this is getting in the leftist social media. This is going to set back that nation and the entire region by 20 years, but today’s youth and the leftist tech mobs are completely mute. They have no idea what this means.

Very sad to watch.

Many males in Afghanistan have apparently abdicated any sense of protecting their family, relatives, etc.

She’s right, sad to say.

The thing we need to pray for now is that these people in this desperate, horrific situation find Christ.

Their lives are not worth much now in this world anyways. They can hardly make it worse by accepting Christ.

Heck, maybe better. They’re more likely to die a quick death than languish in bondage to islamist (what is technically called) men. I hate to give them that kind of recognition as being human, but I can’t think of anything else I could post that would remain up.

It isn’t that the civilized countries of the world don’t care. America lost treasured lives and billions of dollars trying to help your country (if you can call it that) of tribal warriors and barbaric fanatics. Your so-called army would not / could not mount any kind of defense to protect you and have subjected your families to either slaughter or a life of subjugation and oppression. Don’t blame the world for your conditions, blame your countrymen - America and many other countries gave your nation the opportunity to enter the 21st century - and your society preferred the blight with which you must now reside. Now, your fate is in the hands of God, and your fellow countrymen. May God have mercy!

And it appears a good number of Afghanis are perfectly fine with Taliban rule. It’s who they are.

No limit to the amount of blood on his hands and it’s not apt to end soon.

The big mistake the United States made was training the males to be soldiers. The U.S. should have trained the females to shoot because they have a real incentive for personal safety. Maybe someone will get it right the next time.
