Summary

The Taliban have banned windows in homes that allow views of areas where Afghan women might be seen, citing concerns over “obscene acts.”

This new decree mandates blocking or obstructing such windows in existing and new buildings, continuing the group’s systemic repression of women since regaining control of Afghanistan in August 2021.

The Taliban’s policies have included bans on women’s education, public appearances, and voices.

Critics, including the U.N., warn these actions dangerously erode human rights, while activists call out global inaction over the ongoing oppression.

      When you learned about history, did you learn about the Kings of Phrygia? How about older history like Ancient Egypt, Anatolia? What I’m trying to say is that through 7,000 years of documented history kept by all of these countries. They all mention going to Judea or Israel. None of these countries mention going to Palestine until the Romans became involved.
