  1. This is good let Afghan women possess equal rights. No matter what country or religion you believe if it involves killing millions and removing their rights then we will fix that problem. Just bring peace to all we are united we are one. Give me liberty or give me death.

  2. The USA worries about girls in Afghanistan 1000 miles away but here in Mexico their next-door neighbor where I live 15 women are killed every day! Can you clean your backyard first UN?

  3. Everybody deserves knowledge and the right to do what they like. Taliban would be good if it set Islamic laws and allowed people to do what they like.

  4. I was there .. 2010.. the little girl used to bring my Potatoe bread at the gate .. they look like little Kim Kardashians with green

  5. Afghanistan was a heaven for women before taliban. Only women were very happy when polite US soilders used to be there. 🙂 My heart melts when I see those western journalists are concerned about women! Women! Women!

  6. Let the women live there life to work and own their own, not to stop them , Taliban it is only right to let the women have education it is the only way to make a great country with happy citizens , to make your economy strong and be civil ?, u are in gods country , and u say u are gods people. So let the women become a model citizens.

  7. #WomensRights are also being threatened here in America now. Family courts are stealing children from their mothers using false charges of this or that, such as "educational child neglect" and "mental health illness" and "a child's best interest". What other place is a child more safe that with his or her innocent protective mother? The government is desperately trying to enslave our children. Again.
