We’re seeing a clear indication of the world’s politicians’ level of commitment to gender equality as we watch them respond to the Taliban’s wholesale smash up of women’s rights. The response is lukewarm at best. That should be scary for all of us.
@MehdiAli98
The government's aim is to show it is deterring asylum seekers from coming to Australia. It is for political manipulation. It plays to the emotions of people feeling like their livelihoods are threatened. Government pretends to be the saviour so we vote for them. Power.
@MehdiAli98
When voting next year, Australians wanting to scrub the political dirt off this humanitarian issue need to consider voting Greens. ALP is the next best bet, esp as there may be a coalition between the two parties. Put LNP last.
I have been asked to share this video, along with the caption "Finally someone that is speaking the truth and sharing reality."
Please share far and wide.
The people of Afghanistan are not OK. Their captors have been given the tools to violently oppress.
It's remarkable how few people outside Afg are saying this. Afg's women have proven themselves to be intelligent, thoughtful and courageous. There is no excuse for leaving them on the sidelines.

"Taliban consider girls over the age of eight to be adults."
How, exactly, do Taliban define an adult? By a random number? The brain isn't fully developed until 25yo. Generally, an 8yo doesn't even menstruate.

For one or more alleged rapists? The fund was set up quite a while ago. Jan 2018, I think? I am not sure the ABC was sniffing around then. May the truth be revealed and set us free from tyranny.
Message from a young girl:
We will never forget the oppression of the Taliban and those who defend the Taliban.
Today, our people are so lonely as if they were in the hot war of Karbala. 😢😢😢
After a brave girl from Ghor province protested on the occasion of International Women's Day for girls & women's in AFG. The taliban terrorists arrested her father & have not released or given her family where he is kept. This is the fate of all women who protests.

It isn't the first of April yet so you must be trying to gaslight everyone.
Have you heard of the Doha Agreement? How much of that did they stick to? Look at what they are doing. They can't help themselves. Do I have to post photos and videos to remind you?
Please share so the world knows that the women of Afghanistan understand the fundamental human rights available to them and they demand that their rights are respected.

One day left for March 8, International Women's Day, and despite the serious risk of being arrested, a group of women in Kabul took to the streets once again to protest against the Taliban's violations of women's rights. They are chanting: "no to gender apartheid."

I think we know what kind of man says to a stranger "You have such a lovely figure in that outfit" and then insists on their company🧐
I am sick of creepy men who expect women to put out, and then make their lives hell when rejected. It happens so often, and it's not OK.

You advocated for release of funds to TB, who it seems you called the government, and took happy snaps with them, which were used by TB to claim how respected and legitimate they were.
Proud of Norwegian gov inviting Taliban-gov, civil society & key countries 2 Oslo. And pleased - as an elder - to meet Acting For Min Muttaqi. To me, freedom of expression & education for all are priority challenges. But US must release frozen funds to avoid causing disaster!
Afghanistan has become the world’s ‘fastest-growing’ producer of methamphetamine, in addition to being a significant source of opium and heroin.
This is despite the Taliban's supposed crackdown on narcotics following their return in August 2021.

Thanks for calling it out. I support your stance. People want to attack because they feel like their comfortable life is at stake. They are too small minded to see there is room for everyone at the table.

My condolences to the people of Afg on the loss of a national hero, and all the heroes that have been taken before him. May the spirit and teachings of the Commander live on, and may the people rally to bring about the defeat of the terrorist occupiers. Glory to heroes. 🕯️
The Freedom Front in a statement confirmed the death of its commander Akmal Amir in last week's clash in Salang district, Parwan province.
The front has confirmed that seven of its members were killed in a clash with Taliban in Salang last week.
Support the women of Afghanistan, especially the protestors. Our governments have failed to act, so it is up to us as individuals, as people with humanity.

Is that so they can hide the result of the withdrawal? The people have every right to fight back. America should focus on honouring its promise to provide safe haven for those who worked with them.

I fear for the lives of people, particularly women, under the Taliban. I support the NRF because I support Ahmad Massoud's values, which are based on freedom, equality and fairness.

Rather than outlaw women altogether, Taliban introduce numerous rulings that are designed to confuse and can be hard to pin down legally. Death by a thousand paper cuts. ( 🧵1/20)
