Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan rawa.hackmare.com Taliban members defend themselves saying they represent Afghan culture and the Islamic way of life. They say that the burkha is nothing new to Afghanistan and only a small percentage of women were educated earlier on. But the facts, as Samina points out, tell a different story. Before the Taliban took over in Afghanistan, 40 per cent of doctors, 70 per cent of teachers and 50 per cent of civil service personnel were women. Most of them are now jobless since the Taliban does not allow women to work. Samina says that the Taliban s claim of being Islamic is hollow. She says, In the Holy Quran, women were given a right to contribute to the economy by owning and selling property as long as 1400 years back. In fact, there is a verse in the Quran Men shall have a benefit from what they earn, and women shall have a benefit from what they earn, (4:32). no mistake about it , these fellows are religious fascist fundamentalist pigs ....but I guess they have to start somewhere, and they are the ones with the machine guns . Allah always wins in the end ....
