Summary

Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai condemned the Taliban’s treatment of women at a Pakistan summit on girls’ education in Muslim communities, stating, “The Taliban do not see women as human beings.”

She criticized their policies banning Afghan girls from education and work as “gender apartheid” and un-Islamic.

Afghanistan is the only country banning education for girls beyond grade six, affecting 1.5 million girls.

Malala urged Muslim leaders to challenge these practices and advocate for girls’ education globally.

The Taliban declined to attend or comment.

      Says right there it is opposite of what the religion teaches?!

      At least wait until there is an article that confirms your bias to spit your poison, dude.

      Why do you jump to religion and not simply conclude that the Talibans are massive incels? You do realize that out of two billion Muslims only the Taliban are doing this shit right? Malala is calling them un-Islamic for a reason.

        Because their religion literally teaches them to treat women like shit?

        And it’s not only them doing this. They all have shit women’s rights records.

          Look at Kurdistan. It’s like saying the Christian religion is the reason the crusades were bad and not because they were men with horrible ideas. Innocent people worship innocently. I don’t like jihadists or Islamic nationalists or caliphates either, but I at least don’t attribute that to Muslims entirely, just the stupid ones. Most people don’t understand the difference between those who just want to be Muslim (look at Islamic people in Kurdistan and, yes, even Israel who has many religions living together relatively peacefully to the US) and those who want jihad and intifadas and Islam-directed oppression via the state

          I’m sure this is a well-researched claim and not something you just made up, but let’s not get into that.

          And it’s not only them doing this.

          Literally no Muslim country in the world is as insane about oppressing women as Taliban Afghanistan. And that includes even the notorious ones like Iran. Nothing in Islamic beliefs or the behavior of Muslim countries resembles the ridiculousness of Taliban policies, and you should learn at least that before you shit on other people’s cultures.

        religion is in itself a ridiculous premise, and the type is largely irrelevant (islam/christianity).

        they are a disease that should be eradicated. humanity will never move forward with such archaic ideas.

          Okay I’ve seen militant atheism, but this is even beyond that. This is actually fucking stupid and you should learn literally anything about Islam before you make these moronic claims.

            all religions were created by con artists. theyre just tools used to control other humans. its nothing more than that.

            islam itself founded by a pedophilic warlord. volume of the indoctrinated is irrelevant. kinda funny how the best predictor of which of these cults any particular human follows is geography.

              Do you understand how moronic you’re sounding right now? If I was atheist this would embarrassing to read.

                o0o0 sick burn. hard to refute reality.

                every holy book has been written by humans with something to gain in their use. christianity responsible for some of the largest swaths of dead humans in the crusades. the bible crafted by carefully selected passages by humans across millennia. even modern bullshit like mormonism and scientology, created by documented con artists. but oh no, yours is the ‘one true’ religion.

                all religions are false Except yours, right? cuz yours is somehow special?
