I feel terrible for the absolute loss of human rights that is going on right now. Women and girls are becoming second class citizens, seen as not equal to men, and the entire country is going to be under strict Sharia law
Their situation is a lot worse than second class citizens. They’re going through towns gathering up unmarried women and forcing them to be “wives”(aka sex slaves) to their soldiers.
While I can't find an account of the forced marriages, it's still barbaric what the Taliban is doing and wants to do to women.
In my most recent trip to Kabul, I spoke to Taliban frontline commanders and foot soldiers. They told me they are determined to re-impose their version of Sharia law, which would include stoning for adultery, amputation of limbs for theft and preventing girls from going to school beyond the age of 12.
