    WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. intelligence agencies are warning that any gains in women’s rights in Afghanistan made in the last two decades will be at risk after U.S. troops withdraw later this year. https://apnews.com/article/taliban-womens-rights-government-and-politics-d3ced0ded161b380decfa1c8f012f0f5 …

        it doesn’t take an intel agency to foresee this.

        I would have equal confidence if it was sourced to a rando who lives in his mom's basement.

        Like the rest of our foreign policy we were saying one thing for US consumption and the opposite for in-country consumption. The Soviets promoted women’s rights; we helped the Saudis (binL) create the mujahaddin to oppose *crazy views* about women among other things. A scam.

        We knew this would always be the fate of women in that country. And if in 20 years we could not help them build an army that could resist the Taliban.. we never could. God save them...

        Although I don’t completely subscribe to the “if you have no stake in fighting the war, then your views on fighting it aren’t super relevant” stance, it is not without some merit. And I did four deployments to AFG over 10 years. And nothing has changed. Nothing.

        Well this cost really only matters if the Taliban takes over all of Afghanistan. This is really just a euphemism for saying that all of Afghanistan is at risk of falling to the Taliban after we withdraw. Because women's rights are already limited in the areas the Taliban control.
