International The Taliban are working to woo tourists to Afghanistan

Taliban Tours: "We'll treat your women like they're human beings, just not our women!"

- They do treat their female tourists far better than indians doo thought.

In Ghazni, some women, and girls strongly criticize the Taliban for their dual standards towards local women, and foreign women visiting the province. They assert that the Taliban consistently tightened their strict restrictions on women in Ghazni province, while foreign women freely move around different parts of the province without any prohibitions, enjoying full freedom. According to them, the Taliban employ a double standard policy to whitewash and gain global legitimacy, while, in their view, all women within the “Islamic system territory” should have equal rights.

Numerous women, girls, and residents of Ghazni, speaking to the Hasht-e Subh Daily, state that women and girls visiting the province from abroad roam freely day and night without considering issues such as hijab, religious restrictions, or dress code. However, all Taliban restrictions are exclusively imposed on women of Afghanistan, depriving them of the most basic human rights.

These women and girls assert that, under Taliban orders, they have been deprived of fundamental human rights such as education, employment, travel, recreation, and dining out for over two years. They have endured difficult circumstances, living in poverty and confinement at home.

In Ghazni province, the Taliban’s Directorate of Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, over the past two and a half years, has severely restricted women, stripping them of their most basic human rights. However, no stringent directives have been imposed on foreign women visiting this province.

Residents of Ghazni also state that the Taliban have exempted foreign women tourists from their strict regulations to portray to the world that their restrictions on women are a “lie” and that the exclusion of women from Afghan social life is part of the country’s culture.

According to Ghazni residents, the Taliban, in their pursuit of foreign aid and to present a positive image and whitewash their dark image, have not imposed any restrictions or prohibitions on foreign women tourists.

Nahid, 23 years old, resides in the Jaghatu district of Ghazni province. She was a second-year university student in Ghazni at the onset of the Taliban’s control over Afghanistan. Nahid states that due to the restrictions imposed by this group, universities were closed to her and her peers, leading to an uncertain fate.

UN observes reduction in Taliban’s enforcement of hijab on Afghan women​

A new United Nations report suggested Thursday that the hardline Taliban government in Afghanistan has eased its drive to enforce an Islamic dress code or hijab on women.

However, the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, or UNAMA, noted in its quarterly report that violations of human rights at large continued under the Taliban regime.

The Taliban have mandated that Afghan women wear what is termed as the “sharia hijab” in public, covering their faces entirely or only showing their eyes. The operations to enforce the dress code are carried out by the group’s Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice.

While UNAMA continued to receive reports of the enforcement of the hijab instruction by the Taliban ministry, the report said that “such incidents significantly decreased after January 2024 with the cessation of the large-scale enforcement actions which took place between December 2023 and January 2024.”

On January 11, the UNAMA raised the alarm over numerous cases of girls and women across Afghanistan, some held incommunicado, being detained, and others reportedly ill-treated for alleged non-compliance with the hijab. Taliban authorities at the time dismissed U.N. concerns as “incorrect” and “propaganda.”

Thursday’s UNAMA report noted that the new school year in Afghanistan commenced without the presence of girls in high schools due to the Taliban’s continued ban on girls’ education beyond grade six.

“An invitation to attend a ceremony in Kabul marking the commencement of the new academic year, issued to media by the de facto Ministry of Education, specifically instructed women journalists not to attend, citing a “lack of proper place” for women,” the report said.

The UNAMA reported that journalists and media workers continue to operate in a challenging environment in Afghanistan, with the media facing a range of restrictions imposed by the Taliban and the risk of arbitrary detention in the course of their work.

Taliban authorities carried out three public executions of individuals sentenced to death on murder charges, the report said. Since the Taliban seized power in August 2021, they have publicly executed five murder convicts despite U.N. calls for halting the practice.

“The de facto authorities also continue to implement judicial corporal punishment in public, with such punishments taking place in at least one province each week,” the UNAMA said.

The Taliban have publicly flogged hundreds of men and women in sports stadiums in the presence of thousands of onlookers. The victims were convicted of offenses such as theft, robbery, adultery, and other “moral crimes” by Taliban courts.

Afghan women have also been barred from many public and private workplaces, including the United Nations.

Taliban supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada has defended his governance, saying it is strictly in line with local culture and Islamic law. He has dismissed international criticism of his policies and strict interpretation of Islamic law as an interference in Afghanistan’s domestic affairs.

The international community has refused to recognize the Taliban government primarily over its harsh treatment of Afghan women.

A good friend of mine who is a Bosnian muslim is a police officer and before he became a detective went on patrol. He said that he never stopped an Afghani who was not armed, never, like 100 from 100 have knives with them. He rated them even worse than the Chechens, and that really means a lot.

So, no, they are in general not normal people. There are for sure normal afghan people, but the majority of those fine young man who came to Europe are not to be put into the category normal by no standards.

Cause we put war in their country. They are born in war. Don't americans have guns ? Guns are deadlier than knives.

 

[Trabaho]

@Slobodan has already booked a trip there.
I am told the mods get a discount, like Reebok.
Damn mod privilege.

Personally ....

Coincidentally my friend who went there is also called Slobodan. But he goes everywhere. Mostly where it's cheap. Iraq, latin america, india, china, africa ect.

 

[fedoriswar37]

Should send all the diddlers there. Entice them with stories of Poohammed and his marriage.

 

[cottagecheesefan]

Just like there is sex tourism in some south East Asian countries, they should call this stoner tourism.

Where you get to stone the sex workers

 

[HunterAcosta]

The #1 thing I want when I visit a country is to go to a bar and pick up a hot girl. If I tried to do that in Afghanistan, I'd probably be stoned to death and trying to pick up someone wearing a sheet over their entire body.

Before the stoning , They’d probably remove your body parts too , that are pretty important to hot girls in bars.

all i want to know is what happens to the people who get caught banging prostitutes in afghanistan?

i mean if i wanted to see a whole bunch of sand i would just go to the beach. and if i can't throw on a slayer album and lay pipe to afghan hookers inside of a dumpster behind the church without facing some kind of cruel and unusual punishment than i really don't see the point of going there.

You’d probably have to pay the locals a goat or something.

Prostitute on the other hand? She’s getting stoned to death

paying with goats for sex just for the hooker to get stoned to death. what a time to be alive.

yeah, i just don't have afghanistan very high on my bucket list and it's hard for me to even try to come up with any kind of valid reason to even want to go there. maybe if i want to experience what it's like to become the victim of an RPG or a car bomb or some shit. good luck trying to turn that jihadist sandcastle into a tourist destination lol. that ain't even a fly-over state. that's a fly-around state!

 

[blaseblase]

I assume it's only family members who have been going, who the hell would want to go there for tourism?

 

[gatchaman]

Lego Afghan women do not have puppies.

They have mudpuppies.

Also plenty of hot little boys apparently.

An Afghan Boy’s Rape and Death Prompt a Rare Response: Arrests (Published 2020)

Villagers confronted officials, and seven police officers are now in jail, in a rare official action to investigate child sexual abuse accusations in Afghanistan.

That was the US backed Afghans, new government doesnt allow this filth. Islamic morals> Western morals

 

[I Am Legion]

My brother is married to an Afghan woman that escaped Taliban with her family. There is an extended family here now who we are immersed in their lives. Great people for the most part. Some of the older Uncles are a little old school but they love America and despise the Taliban. Several women relatives bear the scars of their ruthlessness.

 

[Protectandserve]

No Bacha Bazi for tourists…

 

[Fox by the Sea]

I imagine it's a great place to go for gun tourism.
used to be like this in Mongolia - you could book tours to drive a tank, shook AKs, RPGs, you name it.
In aghanistan you'd get to drive humvees or even ride an Apache, shoot all the weapon types the americans left behind. it could be super fun and probably cheap. throw 500 bucks in and you'd get a week of rootin tootin shootin

Islamic morals> Western morals

if you're a neanderthal, yes

 

[idrankyourbeer]

if you're a neanderthal, yes

or if you don't mind getting stoned to death for eating a bacon cheeseburger.

 

[nhbbear]

My family has a trip planned there for 20-never

 

[PBAC]

that lake the Taliban rode the ducky boats around looked nice. Not sure I'd go all the way there just for it as there are probably nicer safer places to visit easier.
