Thank you for engaging my friend. There is alot to unpack in that response and some of it goes far beyond my knowledge such as the Hamas and Isreal politics. Acknowledging that there was alot of errors in how that went about, but it was the English that established Isreal and I am fully aware of past empires as they almost decimated my people here in Australia. But it is not a situation I have comment on because I simply do not know.
The current issue with Afghanistan is that Al-Qaeda had set it up as a base which prompted Bush's entry. I want to be clear both Iraq and Afghanistan situations were handled poorly and should not have occurred in that way.
Afghanistan was a progressive state many years ago which didn't require stringent Shaira law. The Taliban took hold removing democracy and women's rights.
Even in Western Cultures women are treated poorly so the west has no moral high ground to claim we do it better. But the scenes coming out of Afghanistan is of fear. If I may say, the announcements of the removal of women's rights are concerning.
I am open to learning more.
