New Afghanistan law to silence victims of violence against women

Some mornings, I wonder what century I have awoken in.

I fear that this will only give additional encouragement to the right-wing forces within our own country which seek to destroy the human rights of women.

Last I checked it was the right in this country that was for fighting against the Taliban and the Islamists and the left who praise them.

Oh, well... reality based community and all that.

1. how many billions have we spent over there--and women are apparently no better off than before.

this is beyond disgusting, but not surprising.

no, there is no war on women, no rape culture.

Money blood and lives thrown away by this administration.

8. religion and 17th century culture

means that the males don't have to look them in the eye. And if they do, they're not wrong! The law says so.  This world is slowly devolving back to the stone age with cruz and his RW sewer mates leading the way in this country. Religion, what a control tool! Is this really what a 'supreme being' wants for his creations? I hope not.

As in Vietnam, the left has thrown away the vistory we shed blood for, willingly doing everything they can to cause the US defeat. Now that it is here they blame the Republicans.

But DUmmies won't demonstrate against Islam and sharia law.....they might lose their head.

The same with Iraq.  Al Qaeda has taken over Fallujah that we fought so hard for.

Just like Vietnam, pulling out and leaving these countries without any help with their security is sure to come back to hurt the civilians.

I agree.

It would be far more cost effective in terms of time, money and human misery to just outright exterminate Islam as a creed.

In countries with Shariah law, girls are shot in the head for trying to go to school... other women are raped and have no recourse in the law... and still others have acid thrown in their face...

Yet the Dummies still pretend that there's a real war on women in this country because conservatives don't want to pay for sluts' birth control or abortions.

Seattle Police arrested 30-year-old Musab Masmari Saturday morning in connection with the arson at Neighbours nightclub on January 1.

Police took Masmari into custody as he was en route to the airport. 

Police say following the arrest, Masmari was interviewed by detectives and later booked into the King County Jail for Investigation of Arson.

It was just after midnight on New Year's Eve while nearly 700 people crammed into Neighbours for a celebration when customers noticed the staircase at the iconic gay club was on fire.

No mention from the DUmmies that the nightclub was for gays.  Muslims hate women and gays more than most infidels.

This world is slowly devolving back to the stone age with cruz and his RW sewer mates leading the way in this country.

And if we had forced the new government to be more moderate and open to women, this is what we would have seen a lot more of:

73. Why should veterans of imperialist wars get automatic respect?
   
They have volunteered, for money, to conduct the day to day business of US hegemony. That does not make them "heroes" in my book.

These pathetic, mouth breathing children don't have the first clue as to what they want.  We were damned if we did, and damned if we didn't from the very beginning.

If they're being mistreated, maybe you should say something to your president, DUmbasses.

Go there. Protest in the streets for your "sisters". Tell us how it goes.
