Cats have more rights than women in Qatar . AJ, please report about it

[Faya.]

Talking about abortion with a hijab you should know that it is forbidden in Islam excepted in extreme cases

[piotrdrukier]

How about the rights of the women of Palestine?!

[kevinvrury]

Imagine a world where millions of people take so much glee in murdering innocent children in the womb. They can't speak but they have a right to life!

[dr.mustafarahim]

She was crazy not to support palestianians rights

[KeepItSimpleSailor]

How dare any Muslim criticise anyone about the treatment of women.

[TheFabo]

Honest question, What rights do men in the US have that women in the US don't?

[idealchanful]

As Popper's said, if we tolerate the intolerable, intolerable will dominate. We must actively become serious freedom fighters

[anonymousperson]

Al Jazeera talking about women is funny considering how many explicit rules there are for women across the M-E.

Kamala spent 1Billion on the campaign.

[furtrapper]

I’m sorry that women will be losing their civil rights. It’s also sad that our democracy is over now. C'est la vie

[Rapid]

Emir of Qatar must be a real progressive

[mclassie]

This whole perception is wacky! Donald Trump is no saint, but neither is Kamala. I think most women would vote for a competent, intelligent, honest woman for President. I would! Kamala was not that!!

[Pougie]

Courting the Cheneys and thinking it expresses moving to the center, when in fact it expresses to your base that the party is moving to the right, was an example of the issues that the Dems faced. Not codifying Roe, when the Dems promised doing so for decades, is yet another. They have been dropping to ball for decades, it's just NOW proving they need to regroup or step aside.

You just have to win abortion rights state by state. Like cannabis legalization and gay marriage before the Supreme Court said it was legal in the whole country.

[TravelerJerryLee]

What is your response to Trump naming the FIRST female as Chief Of Staff? Florida rejected abortion law based mainly on written into the law was a REQUIREMENT of no parental notification required. Doctors can not issue tylenol to a child without parental consent yet they wanted kids to get abortions without notifying parents.

Obsession with baby killing is strange… what rights are you losing?

[johnsmith]

It doesn't mean anything for women's rights.

[MrJuboybe]

She wasn't electric she was selected that's why she didn't win grow up

[socalpimp]

They have the same rights they had yesterday
