[QUOTE="miamited, post: 76310554, member: 270136"] Hi [USER=413014]@JustSomeBloke[/USER] I tend to lean in agreement with [USER=185184]@Nithavela[/USER]. We can't be the police or the government of the whole world. Many nations do many atrocious things based on our worldview of things. While the young woman's death surely seems like a terrible way to have 'solved' some problem that the Taliban government of Afghanistan had with her, they have very strict and very severe laws in many of the middle eastern nations. It is their culture. Now, the allied forces spent over 10 years trying to build up and train and equip the previous government to operate in more 'democratic' methods, but unfortunately, such methods of governance aren't generally accepted in some middle eastern nations. I don't think that anyone wanted to accept Afghanistan as the 51st state of the United States. So at some point, seeing how much was invested in trying to 'correct' the Afghani government, this seems to have been bound to happen without the allied forces taking up permanent residency in Afghanistan. There is a court of law that can address this matter. The U.N. has the power to sanction governments and condemn them for such atrocious behavior and I contend that this problem continuing would be more under their responsibility than Pres. Biden. Further, it was the 'former guy' who started this machination of removal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan. Now, he's likely to spin it now that he wouldn't have withdrawn 'in the manner that Pres. Biden did'. I honestly wouldn't put much stock in that. Had he been re-elected, according to his own plan, U.S. forces would have been withdrawn several months earlier. He had his people sit down and work out all the arrangements and the Taliban were threatening his administration as much as Pres. Biden's, that any delay would be costly to American lives. So, my encouragement would be to climb down just a few steps off of that high place that you're standing and try to be a little more pragmatic about what could or couldn't have been done to save this young woman's life. Under the 'former guy's' plan and the ultimate carrying out of that plan by Pres. Biden, short of remaining in a bitter war with no end in site and, we can now say absolutely no backbone from this 'well trained and armed Afghan force' that we had built up over the last 10 years...likely very little if anything at all. So, let's condemn those who are responsible for that young woman's head being separated from her body. It's the brutal and sexist regime of the Taliban form of governance and the U.N. should address such behavior of another sovereign nation. It's what they were conceived to do. God bless, Ted [/QUOTE]
