In a rambling voice message on Monday, the country’s minister for the promotion of virtue and prevention of vice announced the bizarre new restriction on women’s behaviour.

At what point do we treat this as the hostage situation it really is and do something about it?
Got any suggestions? We tried bombing them to the stone Age, we tried training their military to avoid jihadist radicals taking over. The EU court ruled that just being a woman from Afghanistan is enough reason to get asylum. And the people from there that actively committed to lasting difference over the last 2 decades have either left the country, are in hiding or dead. It’s horrific.
maybe handing morality down from on high doesn’t work
What morality?
Allowing training camps for al queda in your country and train their terrorists to spread terror will get you kicked in the teeth? Cause and effect.
Because as far as I know there was no other reason for the invasion.
While we where there we did not allow wholesale enslavement of women and some of the other things jihadist would love to do to people when in charge.
So what of those things do you disagree with, can you enlighten me? Should we have let the terrorists train there? Or should we have let their jihadist laws enslaving women be left on the books while we where there.
the issue goes back much further than the physical invasion. morality has to be cultivated from within. it’s not enough just to be right
Sure, but it is not as if nothing was tried once the country was invaded. It was just a quagmire and the power brokers of the country can function under the US or the Taliban… they don’t care about anything but their tribe and their bottom line.
what exactly was tried?
Maybe the nato idiots shouldn’t have supported them in the first place just to piss off communists.
Why do you think that’s the start of this?
Never, if the world learned anything from the last 20 years it’s that the only ones who can free Afghanistan are the Afghanis
And they don’t wanna.
I’d kinda love to see a successful approach to these kinds of issues where the UN would do something like drive protected buses into these areas, where the expectation is an unalienable right to enter those buses, with maybe 2/3rds of the seats reserved for women and children.
I wonder if any realistic iteration of that could work to get a decent number of would-be refugees out of situations they want out of, maybe a few thousand, ideally tens of thousands if not more.
It sounds like something that maybe could be made to work if communicated right, but could also meet armed resistance in many places, and there would probably be a lot of men making “their” women stay by force or coercion or lying, probably a lot of hiding inside while the buses pass.
I wonder if it could be done in a way that makes it worth it. It feels like the sort of rescue the UN should be doing.
It also feels like it really forces evil men to show their hand, reveal themselves explicitly as captors, and make it far easier to justify killing them, as I believe that is the ethical response to men who hold their wife hostage.
Anything shy of eliminating all the conservatives in the region will result in this continuing. This is the natural result of unchecked conservatism. It has metastasized there.
You misspelled “Muslims” and “Islam.”
No he didn’t. If you look at the US, they are pushing for the same and they are cristo-facists. “Religion” is just an excuse that extremists propagate so that people like you point the finger at anything but them.
