the occupation and the extrajudicial killings and the drone strikes also produced abject terror

I’m not seeing anyone gloss it over or minimize it except in reaction to seeing it being propagandized to stay. If leaving after 20 years does such harm what good is staying longer? We need to leave and offer refuge here.

Ok. How will a).bombing everything that moves help? b). How will privatizing their resources help? The US military occupation always is a massive privatization project.

USA never cared about the women's rights in Afghanistan or elsewhere.

Remember in 2001 when Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, et al went in to liberate women? They made it WORSE for women and they have more of a chokehold on American foreign policy than they ever did.

I don'tt understand those who think we should leave our troops in. The fact that you do tells me a lot.

girl- remember when we supported counterrevolution groups that were against women’s equality in Afghanistan ? just ask jimmy carter, US doesn’t haf about women

Nothing alleviates a woman’s terror like heavily armed trigger happy foreign soldiers patrolling the neighborhood

No one is doing that. We care about the women. You need to reflect on who created the Taliban and the Mughahadeen. Look at women in Afghanistan in mini skirts in the 70s before America got involved. There is no such thing as imperial feminism.
