      You’re setting a pretty high bar for a country that has been occupied for 20 years. Before there can be emancipation, they need peace.

        Taliban existed prior to the US invasion. They rose in power after the invasion of the UdSSR. Obviously they gained even more momentum “thanks” to the US invasion.

          There is no peace without emancipation. Asymmetrical warfare, is still warfare.

            also if the only solution for Afghanistan you can think of is nationalism, or pan-nationalism you set the bar extremly low.

            What you’re saying is basically that women must surrender to have peace in Afghanistan. That is utterly disgusting.

                It is the logical conclusion of the strategy you propose, imho.

                “Before there can be emancipation, they need peace.”

                See: Taliban are at an asymmetrical warfare against women. Women can either fight for emaciation or surrender. Taking an opposing position towards an enemy that targets you by asymmetrical warfare is contrary to peace. You suggest that peace must come before emaciation. That can only mean, women should surrender to the Taliban.

                If you mean something else, please explain.

                    Every women that picked up a gun to defend themselves and to defend their sisters is a counter argument to your “women rights after the revolution”
