More Misery Put on Women.

By the Taliban. Breaking promises left right and centre. They could end up causing so much bad feeling that they will be over thrown again.

Ah but who will overthrow them?

[Raven]

Well you can only push people so far before they say NO. Hopefully the people of that country will, but we shall see.

[klondike]

They didn't before. It was Blair and Bush that deposed them not the other Afghans.

[Raven]

Yes I know, and I wouldn't put it past the US to step in again. They seem to think they are the world's police.

The Americans would never go back to Afghanistsan, it cost them too many lives and too much money !  It now seems that it was all for nothing, all those people killed.  The Taliban puts the fear of God into its citizens, I think only ISIS could depose them and they seem to have gone quiet, at least in Afghanistan.

How the Taliban run Afghanistan is none of our goddamned business.

Doesn't stop us talking about it though, it's a lost cause.

Nearer to home, you don't need the Taliban, women's rights to single sex spaces have gone in Scotland under Jimmy Crankys Gender bill, any bloke with all his male bits can say he is a woman and go into a women's changing room.  Even the dictionary definition of "woman" has been changed, women are under attack here too.

I wonder how many men in Afghanistan would want to be women under the Taliban? These freak shows wouldn't  want to be women if we the real women hadn't have fought for equality over the years would they? And why should I even have to say real women, there is only real women the others are men.

[Diasi]

Let's call transgenders what they are, deviants.

[Scrumpy]

Let them get on with it..  We, the West, should keep our noses out and let them kill one another... How they live is nothing to do with us..
It costs money and lives if we interfere.. Will we ever learn..!!

Sturgeon shock as Sunak threatens to block Scottish gender recognition law

Sturgeon is whining about the threat to Scottish democracy. If she had the guts to have a referendum on that evil bill, I wonder how many Scots would have supported her? Frankly, I think that the SNP have lost the plot - they seem willing to ram the views of the oddest minorities down the throats of Scots.

So long as it's only the views...
