Taliban Vows It Is Returning To Stoning Women To Death In Public
The Taliban vowed in a message to the West over the weekend that it will soon return to stoning women to death in public.
“You say it’s a violation of women’s rights when we stone them to death,” said Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada, according to The Telegraph. “But we will soon implement the punishment for adultery. We will flog women in public. We will stone them to death in public.”
“These are all against your democracy but we will continue doing it,” he continued. “We both say we defend human rights – we do it as God’s representative and you as the devil’s.”
The publication said that these remarks are the most extreme that he has made since the Biden administration effectively handed over control of Afghanistan to the Taliban during President Joe Biden’s disastrous withdraw from the country in August 2021.
The report noted that the Taliban reverted to its old extreme methods of punishment almost immediately after taking over, including carrying out public executions and beating people.
“Do women want the rights that Westerners are talking about? They are against Sharia and clerics’ opinions, the clerics who toppled Western democracy,” he said. “I told the Mujahedin that we tell the Westerners that we fought against you for 20 years and we will fight 20 and even more years against you.”
“It did not finish [when you left]. It does not mean we would now just sit and drink tea. We will bring Sharia to this land,” he continued. “It did finish after we took over Kabul. No, we will now bring Sharia into action.”
A U.N. report from last year found that 37 people had already been sentenced to stoning under the Taliban regime and that more than 100 had received sentences for “crimes against God”, according to Fox News. Some of the punishments included lashings and having walls knocked down on individuals.

@sunsporter1649 well, I'm not sure Trump meant it when he urged all his followers to "Lock Her Up" in reference to Clinton. But I appreciate your helpful suggestion in support of my point 👍
@Richard65 So you condone the actions of the former Secretary of State in having an illegal server and destroying evidence, both of which are felonies, eh?
@sunsporter1649 you're just incapable of sticking to the original point, arent you? You realise you've painted yourself into a corner and try to deflect by moving onto something else. What next, a Branco cartoon?

@sunsporter1649 Meme I just saw on Facebook: Keep in Mind that Democrats voted to fine Americans for not buying insurance and then conspired to give it to illegal aliens for free.
@SW-User Rachel Maddow lashes out at NBC’s ‘inexplicable’ hiring of ex-RNC chair Ronna McDaniel
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow bashed NBC’s decision to hire former Republican National Committee chair Ronna McDaniel as “inexplicable” — and urged the media giant to “reverse their decision.”
Maddow, the left-leaning network’s highest-paid star, joined a chorus of anchors who have ripped the parent company’s decision to add a staunch defender of Donald Trump for the past seven years.
“The fact that Ms. McDaniel is on the payroll at NBC News, to me that is inexplicable,” Maddow said during Monday’s broadcast of her weekly primetime show.
