The Taliban have forbidden women in Afghanistan from talking to each other.

This is the latest in a series of restrictions since the group seized power three years ago.

And people think importing this kind of culture is enrichment.

Where are the the feminists who laid eyes on palestine. Where are your eyes when it comes to Taliban.???

[loj]

Sick in the head...their men should stop talking to each other too.

[bullshot]

In Europe we have been told for 40 years that their religion is one of love, peace and tolerance and that wearing the veil or burqua is a choice and a freedom for women.

Women can't talk to each other? What kind of insanity is this

[pppp]

What the that's psychological torture. This is a severe sickness.

Why would anyone convert to Islam I’ll never understand

[theodoreconstantini]

where are the Muslim voices from all over the world, speaking up for the women of Afghanistan, after all we hear that supposedly Islam protects the rights women but we are certainly not seeing any Muslims anywhere challenging the Taliban's interpretation of Islam and saying this is not real Islam no, quite the opposite it is accepted. Muslims always defend their fellow Muslims irrespective how brutal they are because they are part of the Umma.

Remember, they claim this the religion of peace

[JPGdesigngroup]

Heartbreaking. An educated Muslim is an Ex Muslim.

Where are the celebrities shouting about women’s rights? Where are the real men in this country standing up for their mothers, wives and daughters? Weak men!

Prisoners aren’t punished in solitary confinement unless extremely dangerous & yet innocent women & girls are treated this cruel & sick way 😢

[SiatkazBiedronki]

I tried to find this news, but failed. There is a ban on talking in public and praying in front of eachother.
Why are you spreading false information?

[mikehsmith]

They are so terrified of the strength and sense of women . It’s the only way they can get their insane status quo to endure . It’s the ultimate cowardice.

[Ivanka-yrvl]

The whole situation is utterly tragic for the women living there

[SaurabhGupta-snyv]

Women have better life in North Korea then Afghanistan

[Brett.Crealy-khsk]

If the men of the taliban stopped talking to each other, or better, totally, there'd be an enduring peace for all Afghani women and children!

[Larry-bg]

They keep talking about how bad Israel is yet they very rarely mention atrocities that take place all over the world, such as those committed by the Taliban.

[eddielouisemoran]

Why do they hate women so much? I know a few vets mentioned child abuse ran rampant while they were there. Putting these types of rules in place keeps victims quiet and not able to speak out about the abuse they endure.
