Although I agree with equal rights for men and women, I think that she is disregarding the fact that all types of people are being hurt by this.

I don't think Taliban rulers understand your 'progressivism'. They seem to only understand 'war' and 'bloodshed' at this point.
Maybe they thought the US became 'weak' and had a go at abruptly taking over the Afghan government all of a sudden.

Clearly, Germans are worth of indefinite protection against Russia, but, Afghans, meh, not so much.
The U.S. and the E.U. chickening out in Bosnia and Somalia paved the way to 9/11. Let's see how the rest of us will pay the price for this debacle.

Or what? Just go ahead and bloodshed? As well intentioned and needed as this statement is, I don't think she gets the nature of Islam in that area of the world.
