This is the first nonsensical article title I've ever seen from NPR. Hope yall aren't getting clickbaity
Both in your headline and your article, you say Biden criticized the Afghan military, not the civilians. That's quite a stretch to go from criticizing the military to criticizing the civilians.
And in addition to that there is real AfghanResistance on the ground anoshaejlasi UNWomenWatch mebtikar CrystalBayat They are being brave But is that enough? Is peaceful resistance enough when confronted with the Taliban? I can’t see women getting their freedom this way.
Well, she’s wrong. Sure it’s one type of fighting but not the kind needed when you’re enemy has an AK-47 in your face. It’s naive idealism that is a luxury of a well off Westerner.
Well this is a really dumb tweet. No one doubts the heroism of Afghan women fighting for their lives. Which has ZERO to do with the Afghan army laying down for the Taliban.
so boys who was also making robots were fighting too based on that logictics
Oh ffs that's not what he was talking about. Cripes.
I'm from Afghanistan sir please help me visa 🙏
🤣 you wrote a gender article about the whole situation. Wow. Let's get the people out first and then you can go back to writing gender articles about how despicable men are.
Was that a conflation attempt?
I mean, he did say Afghan military, as in, the soldiers who either laid down their weapons or switched sides.
But we should have train them to be soldiers
America has a lots going on,Help at home first
We have to destroy all patriarchies around the world. Till men grow up accepting women and others as equal. No one will be free.
I don't follow this at all.
Why didn't 🇺🇸 train 300, 000 Afghan women to fight for their country? I suspect the war might have been won, and an Afghan woman would be Afghanistan's revolutionary President. Forethought is better than afterthought, America. I despise male rulers; they ruin f'n everything. Kurd
That's dumb. Apples to oranges comparison
Hello, to help you know what is going on in afghanistan, the system has changed, now life here is very dangerous for our soldiers, me and my family, now my father and i have managed to escape to qatar, so i hope to go to europe. help malik and save our lives.
Key word: MILITARY. Follow the bouncing ball...🙄
Well they’re not at all who he was referring too! Jesus.
This is the kind of article that leads to nowhere. I feel certain that the Taliban will run and feel shame when they read this article.
At what point will politicians and reporters start referring to the Taliban's actions in Afghanistan as a violent insurrection?
Had it been 4 months since afghan solders been paid like I read
USA Biden's got the Army but hes bulking it up. He gets it but I'd wonder if he studied International Politics like me. I'm not gifted. Iran Iraq get props the Afghans not really. You get beat up here for bashing Women like that. Why is there Human Rights Billions? What a waste
Well, being a little realistic, I think Biden was talking about the Army…
Big stretch. Pres. Biden said 'Afghan military'. The Afghan women, like the women in the U.S. struggle every day 4 fair and equal treatment. His remarks were about the human, economic and personal sacrifices of the U.S. when Afghans stood down.
This is the kind of headline that makes me tune out from NPR and others. Afgan military abandoning their own women to protect themselves from the woman hating Taliban is the story.
LOL. This gave me a good laugh. Thank you.
Fair enough but we all know Biden meant the military of Afghanistan.
The US military. Making the world safe for gender equality. 🙄
Good work. Important to regonized. But they did not engage in combat against the Taliban. Neither did Afghan security force. The President of Afghan snuck off with bunch of money.
Not in combat it's not, and during that whole fiasco, that was what was needed.
The patriarchy ALWAYS ignore the struggles of women. POTUS is a good guy, but he’s still a product of the patriarchy that controls EVERY major worldwide institution. Women are ALWAYS ignored & discounted.
THEY GOT A CHARTERED plane from the Arabs and are now in DUBAI...safe and sound.....BECAUSE? THEY ARE BETTER THAN THE OTHERS?
If there is going to be hope for a free Afghanistan, World Powers need to employ Kurdish Female Fighters to train an Army of Afghan Women. Recruit from around the World, to return to join Resistance Movement that will come. The United States should pay Mercenaries to join them.
Jesus Christ, any stretch will do when NPR wants to jump on the bandwagon and criticize President Biden... It's terrific Afghan women are doctors and lawyers and robotics experts fighting in the whatever battle... but he was talking about military explicitly. come on!!
This hyperbole and fake outrage is really getting old
Um the whatsboutism is beneath you
Do better, Biden is referring to the military, not civilians.
Yeah, criticize with apples and oranges
WTF!!! I am really getting tired of the media's BULLSHIT!! Maybe Conman Trump was right . . . the media is the enemy of HUMANITY!!!
Oh please, stay on topic. People are looking for shit to be insulted about.
Like, i'm really confused how you misconstrue someone talking about a military that was trained to fight against the taliban and the civilians trying to make their way in a wartorn country. Am I missing something here? Because it really feels like we're missing something here.
Right…
No, darling, fighting is what the Taliban did.
He was obviously referring to the Afghan military. Cmon.
