Incredibly powerful interview with @sahraakarimi in Afghanistan this morning on @BBCRadioScot - I've taken this excerpt below because it is so brutally honest and from the heart, but please do go listen to the whole thing. @Fionasstalker

It definitely matters there's just nothing good the US is capable of doing about it.

At least acknowledge the moral complexity of the situation. The United States has been doing a lot about it for 20 years. That’s not even to say we should continue, but let’s stop pretending OK?

At least acknowledge that your take is shit

Your a good person who wants the best for humanity. The MIC understands this and will use your humanity to deny others their own.

Ah yes I remember the 2009 Kunduz airstrike with up to 200 casualties, over 100 of them civilians and also children. The US and allies, really been doing a lot for 20 years.

"The United States has been doing a lot about it for 20 years" Hilarious. You might want to read up a little as to WHO was behind the creation and rise of that misogynist Taliban. It started in the 1980s - not the 1780s. Do you all have the memory of goldfish and/or can't read?

When someone deeply intent on justifying US imperialism starts throwing out "at least acknowledge the moral complexity of the situation" that we are way down deep into a steaming pile of propaganda sh*t.

For twenty years the US has been facilitating human trafficking by contractors and 'allies', bombing entire families for kicks, and empowering war lords no less horrific treatment of women than the Taleban has been Meanwhile, revolutionary women of Afghanistan have been ignored

What good has the US been doing about it, though? Afghan women have said that US intervention has only made their conditions worse.
