Foreign aid organizations halt work in Afghanistan

After Taliban bans Afghanistan women from working for them.
The Taliban believe that women/girls should not set foot outside the home.
Western countries believe that women have an equal place in society.
The Taliban is going to be responsible for killing Afghanistan while it is in charge.

The citizens of Afghanistan and all other Islamic countries ruled by extremist Muslims need to stand up for themselves. There are only roughly 200,000 Taliban and over 30 million afghans. If they would all join together they could take there country back in a few days. The U.S and coalition forces spent 20 yrs, trillions of dollars in humanitarian aid, building and rebuilding there infrastructure, training and equipping them with a standing army of there own, at the cost of thousands of U.S. a coalition forces lives. For them to throw down there weapons and turn tail and run before any shots were fired. They women seem like the only ones willing to stand up to there oppressors . Time for the men to grow some gonads and go take there country back. Just saying.

@goodlil666 Unfortunately despite 20 years of military training from US Forces, Afghan troops still lacked the desire to stand up to Taliban forces.

In comparison Ukraine citizens are given 5 weeks of intensive training from UK armed forces and are ready and willing to stand up to Russian invasion.

To summarize - Afghans have no desire to fight to protect their families and country because Allah doesn’t will it.

@BittersweetPotato Afghans don’t have the will to fight. Ukraine citizens do.

@goodlil666 @justanothername

The sad truth is , the west doesn’t give a fuck about Afghanistan.
No offense.
There are endless of wars and conflicts going on but if I ask the average westerner they wouldn’t know about them.
Hell no one talked about the Tigray war that apparently just ended that killed endless amount of people
Ukrainian war (with all my sympathy ) is nothing compared to that.
The media that is controlled by you know who pick and choose what they want to shed light on for their own propaganda

Like how they want to evlize Islam by making it seem like the taliban are the representatives altho most Muslims r against them
Or for economic reasons like how they focus too much on the Russia Ukraine war to empathize that Russia is bad for again political and economic reasons.
Worse ,
the fact they don’t mention all the aid other countries including Muslim countries have been doing to aid Afghanistan because they have a hero complex.
The level of hypocrisy is too much for me to handle .
They love talking about aiding Afghanistan
While they supply israel which btw broke the un promise with billions to kill kids in Palestine, and steal homes from legal Palestinian territories.
Just look up how many kids israel killed in 2022 alone.

I find it hard to believe that a country that destroyed over 50 countries and dropped endless amount of bombs (an average of forty-six strikes per day.) that ended the lives of endless amount of innocent civilians
To care about Afghanistan

If I have to choose which is the more corrupt government
Afghanistan or usa
I would definitely choose the later
But both can lick my ass

@Moon3624 incorrect. The west does give a shit about Afghanistan but it can’t do anything to help a country that won’t staff up for itself despite 20 years of military training and billions in aid. Sometimes you just have to know when to quit.

@justanothername
Nope it doesn’t.
Especially those governments.
If you had read my comment you would have founded the hypocrisy
Maybe you didn’t reach that part lol

@Moon3624 what does that have to do with the Afghans taking there country back? They didn't lay down arms and run because they wanted the Taliban back in power the ran because they are cowards.
goodlil666 · 51-55, MVIP
@BittersweetPotato there are over 30 million afghans and less than 200,000 Taliban , they are cowards.
justanothername · 51-55, M
@Moon3624 That has nothing to do with Afghanistan not willing to fight for itself against the Taliban.
Moon3624 · 18-21, F
@justanothername I made a statement About this topic in general and the west hypocrisy
I never said i replied to something specific
justanothername · 51-55, M
@Moon3624 My post is about the Taliban banning women from working in various humanitarian organizations in Afghanistan. Not about dropping bombs.

If the Taliban wants US to help them it needs to either get out of Afghanistan or give women back the right to work and receive higher education. If none of those after forth coming then the West and the US have no reason to support Afghanistan.
The ball is in the Talibans court as to how they respond.
goodlil666 · 51-55, MVIP
@justanothername If you want women's rights and many other rights and freedoms you need to oust the Taliban , stand up for yourselves. If 30 million people stood up there's nothing they could do, maybe kill a few thousand at most.
justanothername · 51-55, M
@goodlil666 No shit. That’s what the US military trained afghan troops to do for 20 years. For nothing. The Afghans have no desire to fight. They are fucking useless.

Ukraine on the other hand… British solders are putting Ukraine citizens through 5 weeks intensive training in the UK so that they can return to Ukraine and fight against Russia, successfully.
