These women are so brave. The more attention the world gives to what's happening to them, the more likely they will be safe. Deep bow of respect for their extraordinary courage.

Would you prefer these women live under your western view of oppression or die in a firestorm from our bombs?

What do you think of the brave women of Idlib resisting the al nusra al queda affiliate? Do you support President Assad’s battle to liberate all the women of Syria?

I'm seeing a lot of crocodile tears by Western imperialists over Afghan women but are they going to speak about Syrian women under Al-Qaeda rule in Idlib? The experience tells us they will side with Al-Nusra against the SAA.
