“Most of our people turn their cases over to the #Taliban or tribal elders,” she noted. “[But] the Taliban always rules against women or talks about stoning and lashing [them]."https://gandhara.rferl.org/a/taliban-courts-ghor-justice-afghanistan/31000489.html …

@a_a_jackson Have you found it to be the case, that Taliban courts “always rule against women”?
Not necessarily... but what I've found (anecdotally) is that its so much more variable how they treat women (than say deciding debt, land disputes or what have you). Which feels like what Nasima is talking about, re her own perceptions and experiences

There is stoning and lashing in some places ... and elsewhere they crackdown on baad. So it's really unclear to me, b/c (a) we don't have a systematic picture of how things work and (b) there's no dialogue with the TB on this (i.e., when do you permit lashing, stoning, etc)

And I'm not condoning these practices by any means. But what I would say is that the Taliban need to be transparent and held accountable: what is the justice system you want, how are you justifying that, how does it align with human rts norms in place since 2001, etc.

Many organizations, also insurgencies, excercise semantic vagueness for internal cohesion, and reserving the option of revealing specific stances on issues when "it's the right time". The problem is, as you've pointed out, no one's really asking the deep-digging hard questions.
