Reply #74: I'm not OK with the mistreatment of women and gays in Afghanistan

But are we helping anyone there with bombs and bullets? Our strategy to help seems to be, "If we blow you up, the Taliban can't oppress you!"

We should reach out and lend moral support to groups like RAWA, but we need to get our military out!

Our occupation helps DRIVE the behavior! The only way to stop it is trust and education, which is impossible with missles and snipers and APCs driving them to fear and resistance!
