Hey, zzyzx! Gabby Johnson would be embarrassed by the junk CNN is spouting:
Concerns Mount That US Withdrawal From Afghanistan Could Risk Progress on Women’s Rights
CNN | April 10, 2021 | Jennifer HanslerConcerns are mounting from bipartisan US lawmakers and Afghan women’s rights activists that the hard-won gains for women and civil society in Afghanistan could be lost if the United States makes a precipitous withdrawal from the country.
President Joe Biden has suggested it will be difficult to meet the May 1 deadline for US troops to leave the country as dictated in the deal the Trump administration signed with the Taliban.
However, there are fears that if the US withdraws troops before the conditions on the ground are right — regardless of the date on the calendar — there will be a sharp and possibly catastrophic backslide.
The old “women and children hardest hit” play.
Women’s rights in Afghanistan?
“Dictated”! Trump signed a deal “with the Taliban”!!11!
Even Jen Psaki couldn’t say any of this with a straight face.
By the way, could the reporter be bothered to specify her sources?
Whose “concerns are mounting”?
When did Biden “suggest” it will be difficult to fulfill another promise?
What words did he use?
I’m asking too much of the press, I’m well aware.
“Sources? We don’t need no stinking sources…”
Do they mean without the hated US military women’s rights will disappear?
Fascinating. Here I thought Muslims were all progressives down with the resistance!
Now who can argue with that? I think we’re all indebted to CNN for clearly stating what needed to be said. I’m particularly glad that these lovely IMAO posters were here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic media gibberish, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age.
Personally speaking I don’t think we can change the mind set of the average Afghan male even if we stay there another twenty years. Their treatment of women is strictly from the stone age, it’s never gonna change no matter how long we stay, so lets get out now so no more young American troops have to die for nothing while serving in another third world crap hole.
Wouldn’t it also be culturally insensitive?
