Karzai backs strict guidelines for women - World - The Boston Globe

Quote:
President Hamid Karzai’s remarks Tuesday backing the Ulema Council’s document, which allows husbands to beat wives under certain circumstances and encourages segregation of the sexes, is seen as part of his outreach to insurgents like the Taliban.
Why are American tax dollars being used to prop up sexist psychopaths who think that wife beating is just fine? Build a fence around the country. Then tell any Afghani woman who does not want to be treated like a stupid child or a cow she can leave and GET OUT. Then we leave.

The question is why are American troops still in Afghanistan since the death of Bin Laden?

The question is: why do Americans believe that America really cares at all about people in Afghanistan???? (or anywhere else in the middle east, for that matter)

The answer is that they don't. America isn't there to help the people. And the proof lies in the numbers of civilians that they have killed.


Peace,
brian

No reason to still be there. We should've turned that cesspool inside out 10 years ago.
