The new, gentle Taliban attacks and brutalizes Afghan journalists after announcing government



President Biden's new Afghan partners, the Taliban, imprisoned and brutally beat a member of the media at a local Kabul news agency Wednesday. The local media reported that a journalist and an editor were taken by the Taliban and eventually released after they shared photos on social media depicting the terror group's ongoing atrocities.

This news comes just one day after the terrorists announced their formation of the 'Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan' government. Mullah Muhammad [surprise] Hasan is currently the acting Prime Minister while the scumcrumpet's co-founder Abdul Ghani Baradar is the Deputy Prime Minister.

The Taliban have made a cottage industry out of brutalizing and intimidating local journalists. At one time eight scum-muffins charged into an Afghan news station, held the TV anchor hostage while broadcasting during a live debate. The studio's name was ironically called the Peace Studio. While the guy was broadcasting, the armed terrorists stood behind him while broadcasting his show "Pardez." The militants reportedly asked the anchor to interview them and continued to stand behind him in the studio as he conducted his show. 

Prior to the above incident, Beheshta Arghand made history as the first woman to interview the Taliban. However, she wisely 'made book' and made herself scarce from the war-torn country, admittinh she was afraid of those crazy b***ards. She was also quoted by the global media saying the Taliban don't consider women as human. "When a group of people don’t accept you as a human, they have some picture in their mind of you, it’s very difficult," Arghand had said.

In another incident, the Taliban barred two women journalists Khadija Amin and Shabnam Dawran who worked with the public broadcaster Radio Television Afghanistan. The group also attacked two other members of the press for covering the anti-Taliban protests taking place in the eastern Nangarhar province.

So good going Joe. You've never been right in making foreign decisions so why start now?

Taliban shoots over crowd to end protests in Kabul--journalist arrested

This is a softer, gentler Taliban, a bunch of guys who are looking to change their image, not the terrorists as to how we referred to them.

Now, instead of beheading people on camera or stoning women for showing an ankle bone or wrist, instead of shooting folks in the face for their religious reasons, they shoot over the heads of protesters--and who cares where the bullets may fly after they pull the trigger. And fire shots they did on Tuesday in order to disperse the crowd who gathered at rallies in Kabul. This is the most recent signs of defiance by Afghans against the Taliban.

Afghanistan’s new Islamic rulers have yet to form a government, but it's a good bet that not much will have changed since their last reign from 1996 to 2001. Those were the days when the Taliban publicly executed people and cut off the hands of thieves for stealing food or even gum.

“Afghan women want their country to be free. They want their country to be rebuilt. We are tired,” protester Sarah Fahim told AFP at one rally outside the Pakistani embassy, where more than 70 people, mostly brave women, had gathered.

“We want that all our people have normal lives. How long shall we live in this situation?” the 25-year-old said, being too young to remember what it was like when these scumwafers were in charge.

The crowd, in stark contrast to Portland, OR antifa and BLM rioters, merely held up banners and chanted slogans. They are frustrated with security and free passage out of the sandbox known as Afghanistan. They are also upset with Pakistan for getting involved as they have always had close ties to the Taliban.

And the US keeps sending Pakistan money so they can provide gifts for their Taliban friends. Many of those "gifts" killed Americans over the years. They have also provided a safe haven for the Taliban

Pakistan’s intelligence chief Faiz Hameed was in Kabul this weekend, reportedly to be briefed by his country’s ambassador but you can bet he also met with Taliban officials.

Scattered demonstrations have also been held in smaller cities in recent days, including in Herat and Mazar-i-Sharif where women have demanded to be part of a new government. They have as much chance of that happening as OJ has of catching Nicole's killer.

Several Afghan journalists who were covering a demonstration that began at the Pakistani embassy were arrested by the Taliban, witnesses and Afghan media outlets said. 

Why it's almost as if the Taliban is transitioning into Twitter.

An Afghan journalist who was among those detained and was later freed told The Associated Press he was punished by the Taliban. “They made me rub my nose on the ground and apologize for covering the protest,” he said, speaking on condition of anonymity for fears for his safety. “Journalism in Afghanistan is getting harder,” he added. 

Afghanistan’s TOLOnews TV channel said its cameraman Wahid Ahmadi was among those arrested.

An Afghan journalist covering the demonstration told AFP his press ID and camera were confiscated by the Taliban.

“I was kicked and told to go away,” he said.

Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the Taliban had reiterated a pledge to allow Afghans to freely depart Afghanistan. And if Blinken is winking and giving a nod to it, he's as clueless as a leftist living in Yaheppets, whose TV is stuck on CNN.

The Taliban told the United States that “they will let people with travel documents freely depart,” Blinken told a news conference in Doha where he and the other useless Biden flunky, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, met their Qatari opposite numbers.

The only way the Taliban is going to abide by their "word" is if we bribe them with taxpayer money, assuming we haven't already done so.

The Taliban asserts that women will be allowed to attend university as long as classes are segregated by sex, or even divided by a curtain. Sharia law demands modesty be enforced upon penalty of death by stoning. According to sharia, pregnant women will not be stoned until after they deliver their baby and then look out!

But if you believe these clowns will permit women to obtain a higher education than men, especially Taliban men [who know slightly more than a camel], then get your TV fixed and get off that island and sail to reality. 

Women in Islam have about the same rights as those camels aforementioned.
