Women's rights, Afghanistan

lundi 2 janvier 2023 à 06:54

The Taliban have forbidden women to work for NGOs. Decades of war have left many families with only women to earn money; now that they cannot work, they are desperate. Are they desperate enough to kill Taliban -- any Taliban they can get?

The west tried sending armies to defeat the Taliban, but the Taliban defeated them. The western-sponsored Afghan government was corrupt, and its army did not have the will to win that the Taliban had. There is no sense in trying that approach again. What could defeat the Taliban?

If Afghan women, in total desperation and with total determination, start killing whatever Taliban they can get their hands on, they can put an end to religious tyranny.
