Taliban spokesman says women incapable of performing government jobs
Washington Examiner ^ | 10 September 2021 | Virginia Aabram, Breaking News Reporter

A Taliban spokesman made clear what kind of role women would play under the new regime, and it doesn’t bode well for those hoping for an inclusive government.

In an interview on Afghanistan’s Tolo News on Thursday, Sayed Zekrullah Hashimi said women are incapable of performing government duties....

...He dismissed the women who took to the streets to protest against the new government, arguing it does not indicate how most women in the country feel.

“The four women protesting in the streets do not represent the women of Afghanistan,” he said. "The women of Afghanistan are those who give birth to the people of Afghanistan and educate them on Islamic ethics.”...

Uh oh. The Biden administration better send some feminism trainers into Afghanistan right away.

And a crew to fix up the George Floyd picture too.

I thought the Democratic Party is a major advocate for women's rights worldwide? So we should allow the Taliban to degrade women living in Afghanistan as inferior second class citizens?

We should attack the Democratic Party for being hypocrites on this issue. Even though leaving Afghanistan was the right thing to do (evacuation was a major ***k up, Joe Biden gets the blame as the President of the United States in charge of the operation).

The left will be silent. The feminists will be silent. The MSM will blame Trump. The left almost always circles the wagons successfully to the frustration of conservatives and patriots.

Far too many Freepers had the DEMs on the downward path after the 2016 elections, yet here the DEMs are, finally pushing for their utopia without much push-back.

I haven’t heard from the Squad in a while. Afghanistan? Hello? They suck. If they were consistent, I’ll respect them more. But really, they want to be dominated under a Taliban version of America. As long as Joe Biden gets to call the shots and the Conservatives get sent to reeducation camps.

I know your question is rhetorical, but just like with gays, militant blacks, and teacher's unions, so-called women's rights are simply a means to an end to finalize Communism.

Omar certainly didn’t want to be dominated under a ‘Taliban version of America; - she’s now married to a very well-off, Woke, American guy; and probably cracks the whip on him routinely.

“Taliban spokesman says women incapable of performing government jobs”

It’s more than possible that the Afghans have seen no examples of women’s leadership to consider except Hilary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Michele Obama, Maxine Waters, and Kamala Harris. That may shed a light on their concerns. If that’s all they have in their observations for determination, they are correct.

If Islamic Law comes to America, the Squad will be told to put on their Hijabs, if not Burkas, marry a jihadi and bear lots of lots of children. Oh, and no Congress for you!
