        https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2001/nov/17/afghanistan.weekend7 … This is the first thing I found when googling it. The last quote(s) of the article is probably somewhat what you’re looking for: “Would I have written the book if I had never visited Afghanistan? Possibly. Would it have been the same? Unlikely.”

        You people are sick. If we said said Obama was trying “fundamentally change America” and moving to shariah law you would have lost your minds. News or hyperbolic fortune telling, tabloid style? Real news is truly extint

        No, no it’s not. Not even a little bit. Self important sanctimonious idiocy.

        Please. There are tons of women in high ranking official positions. Plus, women are the fastest growing group of gun owners. Today's women wouldn't let that happen. Cook

        This woman needs some serious therapy. Women in America have more freedom and special treatment than anywhere in the world. Liberalism is a mental disorder,find a cure.

        I’m a Christian, raised in old school Pentecostal Church. To witness the current environment in right wing media, and actually know how some of these extremists think, makes Handmaid’s Tale so incredibly shockingly possible to me, I can barely contain myself.👏🏽
