Afghanistan

[ber]

What is happening in Afghanistan is appalling, what life are women going to have now? While their rights and freedoms still left alot to be desired under the last administration they had still made huge strides ,education was avaliable they could Express themselves how they dressed etc.
While maybe not easy for every one they still had opportunities to get jobs and have careers.
That will now be gone in a flash back to wearing Burkas covered head to toe and chaperone by a Male when going outside.
I really feel for the generation of girls since 2000 or so that had not experienced life under the Taliban and now what a shock it will be to them it will be like being in a prison all their freedoms and way of life snatched away overnight,it doesn't bear thinking about.
This is without even mentioning the life of misery and sexual servitude many are going to suffer. The Taliban are already getting the village Immans to compile lists of females between 12 and 45 to marry Taliban fighters they are considered spoils of war and can you imagine the life they will have of physical and sexual degradation .
It seems as if the outside world is totally helpless to do anything ,soldiers wont be sent back in and after 20 years of bloodshed ,billions of euros the Taliban can claim total victory .
The more I read and get to understand that I feel so sad for the women of Afghanistan and what they are about to face it is truly horrific. It really is a reality check k on the great way of life we have even if we dont appreciate it always
