A very sad day for the women in Afghanistan .
Straight back to the Middle Ages .
It seems womens rights the world over are being chipped no blasted away .
There are no words really it just makes me feel helpless poor women forced to cover themselves in such heat too . Threat of violence and controlling their lifes . They should be allowed choice
One thing I do think is pretty is the beautiful headscarf some Muslim ladies wear , the way it is draped gently around the face and hair is attractive though Iâm not sure if they would agree . Some colours are pretty too .
Hi
The simple head covering is fine by me, there are some beautiful ones.
The Birkha is totally wrong.
Shocking and utterly inhumane.
Bloody allah
I find it abhorrent how men are allowed to control in this way. I wish the women would fight back and say enough is enough. Why should these women hide their beautiful faces away.
We have many in this country who choose to hide their faces away though, Iâve never really understood why they would want to do that and I donât suppose I ever will.
The Taliban are nothing but a set of control freaks who live in the dark ages. I bet their women get beaten too if truth be known.
How can they fight back ?
The Taliban are medieval brutes armed with 21st century weapons and a cruel ideology.
We will have to stop all aid to Afghanistan it will cause terrible hardship unless their rich Islamic brothers take up the shortfall .
Not much difference in Batley and Dewsbury now - everywhere you go there are women forced (?) to wear niqabs. Even the little girls are walking round fully covered, even though thereâs no need to do so. Slowly but surely, the UK is being dragged back into the 6th century
No chance of that.
Yes it is we should ( I hate to say it ) be like France and forbid the burka / niqab in public life .
Still what can we expect we have allowed immigrants form one of the most radical Islamic countries in the world - Pakistan- to carry on their way of life in this country in the same of diversity . And everyday more arrive from other third world hell holes where women are disrespected - there is a reason they donât want to stay in France . Even the French have their standards and value the French way of life .
What I canât understand is why ?
Are their no men in Afghanistan who would like their daughters educated or object to restrictions on women ?
Folks used to travel the world to observe a patchwork of ideologies, now there is no need to travel, once everything has been levelled.
When everything has been levelled it will be too late .
It would be encouraging for countries like the UK to retaliate against these discriminatory rules - perhaps the UK should insist that all men from Afghanistan wear a veil and all women should NOT have their faces or heads covered.
In many western countries women are treated as equal and in the UK that is law!
What we forget is theses Islamic ideas are designed to make women a manâs possession. Islam has seen that they are able to control their women this way and it is being accepted because Islamic men donât want their women to be educated & learn that women can become world leaders.
Islam wants to control the world and they start by controlling their women. As long as western countries view this as a religious requirement and refuse to take the same action as France, arenât they all allowing the Islamic religion to take over our countries ?
Islam are smarter than Russia, ( who just wage war to get what they want), whilst Islam just bring their religious laws here, knowing that the west wont stop them, then keep producing babies so they will eventually win political control.
It will probably take less than 3 generations to achieve their aim of making the world Islamic & there will always be help from Islamic terrorists, as we have seen over our generation!
That is my concern too Twink and very worrying too . Our poor grandchildren. Our governments dont care.
Very concerning
Iâve thought for years that the real danger is not the threat of war, but the insidious taking over of our free western countries by hostile nations. We are walking, eyes wide open, into a nightmare future, one that needs to be stopped in its tracks now, because before very long it will be too late.
Far too much PC âwokeryâ in the UK for that to happen
How would it be stopped?
WHY dont our governments care or see this . Surely they have grandchildren and can see like we can the future of this happening and our country no longer free
Because they donât understand Islam. Very few people do.
