This has been their culture for many centuries, and as we (and the Soviets) found out the hard way, they’ll fight to the last to hang on to their ways, and no amount of bombing or bribery will change that. They’ll just wait us out. Leave them be. It’s not our concern.

I have some Pakistani and Afghani friends, the younger generations find it an extremely outdated and weird practice. It will eventually change as those old guys die off. Different world out there...

As far as I can tell, it's more-or-less legal in California as well.

The Athenians would exile people if enough citizens voted to send them away. Maybe a one way ticket to Central Asia, Arabia, or Africa would adjust feminist attitudes.

Do your friends still live in Afghanistan and Pakistan? In my experience, the people who see their ways as outdated and weird left, leaving behind folks that are not going to change

Most moved here with their families when they were kids. They all go back yearly to visit family in these BFE villages. You have a point about the brain drain...

they would do well to see how the rest of the world really works... Some would be beheaded or have their tongues cut out but it would probably be worth it in the long run...

We should probably send some of the LGBTQ+StoryHour folks with them for safe keeping...

Selling a daughter as a slave is terrible,

It’s been going on since Mohammad founded Islam.

It’s not America’s problem.

Unfortunately whether the Dad sells his daughter or not, she will live as a slave the rest of her life so long as the Taliban is in charge

Definitely not. We cannot control the absurdities of the Islamic world.

Strange and completely unfunny post. I don’t think child sex trafficking is very funny, there’s shite happening on our southern border that’s likely just as disgusting as what’s happening in Afghanistan and the illegitimate regime is complicit.

Trump made the call to pull out. If he dad that more often he wouldn’t have to finance as many abortions.

ill be honest....why should i care? it has alwasy happened in that country and others like it

has nothing to do with america
afghan is not a strategic base of operations
afghan has no substantial exports that we need
afghan is not a geopolitical foe on the global scene
afghan has no military that is a threat to us or any ally


so why should i care? why would donald care?

i will pray for the little girl but ill be honest, the moment we killed OBL....we should have been packing up and shipping things out

biden is a fricktard with the way he handled things and fricked everything up. so are the generals that thought it was a good idea to leave equipment behind.

but leaving was the right thing....just planned and executed by idiots with an agenda.
