Let�s not forget that she was an official in the Karzai government. You have hit the nail where it should be hit. This government is currently engaged in a civil war. The Afghans are not fighting a civil war, we feel, we are resisting occupation, forced on us through a token puppet, kept alive by Amreeki and elite Israeli bodyguards. She has been a casualty of being seen as a collaborator. |

Cassandra You ask a valid question. I do not believe anyone can justify killing of a woman because she wants to improve conditions for women. However, I think you simplify the issue by the way you asked your question. Let�s not forget that she was an official in the Karzai government. This government is currently engaged in a civil war. I do not know where you stand on this war. Personally, I no longer know whose side is less wrong. But, I do know there have been horrendous atrocities perpetrated by both sides. Also please consider the fact that there have been assassination attempts on all government officials in Is this another endless, senseless, savage war that will continue for generations to come? |

Its just great to have you back, Cassandra! I watched a show once on Soviet Occupied Afghanistan. The Soviets encouraged the women to get out, and ditch the traditional garb. Women were wearing short skirts, western styles and going to bars. (Men, too) I think many of these men are afraid to see that kind of morality come back to Afghanistan. They are also afraid of losing control. That could be one of the reasons in this strange and a bit confused scenario, but these days we are, mostly, getting a lot of retreat propaganda. Kabul and Brussels are following CIA scripts. Would you believe it, I have actually seen some of such guidance manuals!! |

Ofcourse YOU would say that...youre the one who started this thread
If this was the case, then no there is no justification for it at all. But beware of propaganda, especially coming from the drug addict Northern Alliance, and the WMD seeking US Government. How could the Taliban Kill a woman for teaching, when they themselves wanted to build schools for girls and didnt only due to lack of funds? How could the Taliban kill a woman when they believe killing women is not allowed except in the case of married adultery or murder. Why would the Taliban even bother with this when they are busy enough fighting over 70,000 Northern Alliance troops, 11,000 Americans, and thousands and thousands of other troops including Nato? |

Cassandra: This woman was a hero. This is clear enough to me.
Sawtul: (Doesn't that mean "Stoner") I think you are full of your own metaphore. What's more I am tired of stepping in it. Edited by Daniel Dworsky |

Thank you Angela for you insightful and (to me) very clear comments. But to the rest of you, I am still waiting for an answer to my question above: is there any "justification" for this killing of a courageous Muslim woman who despite vilification and ultimately the loss of her life sought education, respect, and a right to have some say over their lives and personal dignity for Afghan women? To me the answer is "no", but then I am not Muslim. What I have read still tells me the answer should be "no", yet the perpetrators (presumably) did this with a clear conscience sure that what they were doing was somehow sanctioned. Can anyone clarify this for me please? |
