20 Years On.....

[ToraToraTora]

Knowing what we know now, what should the West have done in response to 9/11 and other atrocities?

[1ozzy]

All that explains Naomi is that you suck at research and would prefer to rely on your indisputable knowledge of everything.

[naomi24]

Pardon?

[Spicerack]

No, I must be missing something, as well, Naomi.
Why do you say it's the same incident, gromit?
(not that it makes any real difference. dozens of women will be murdered by your new besties, minimum)

[Spicerack]

Must have been a difficult question. As you seem to know, 1ozzy, maybe you can explain?

[naomi24]

Maybe....

According to this article the woman was shot on Tuesday:-

[Togo]

Despite looking carefully, I can't "see a picture" of anyone that may have been murdered in the links provided by Danny. There is an image, of sorts, on the twitter link of a woman's legs that may be an injured or dead woman. I cannot however understand the accompanying posts to it, as they are in Arabic. Perhaps whoever posted the link here would interpret for us. It should come naturally I feel.

[ichkeria]

Unfortunately this shows that the Taleban may control Afghanistan but they don't really control the Taleban. That's the big problem.

[ichkeria]

I can't see the pictures referred to but probably not Arabic?

If you wait, there are a lot of interpreters on the way :-)

[Khandro]

I think the Taliban are bad dudes, but I don't think they would shoot a woman for not wearing a burka. N.Y. Post, fake news.

[dannyk13]

Khandro, fake news? also reported here:-

DeedarKhan's comment is not Arabic - Dari/pushtu I think

[naomi24]

Khandro, why do you think they wouldn’t do it?

[Khandro]

danny; Whether it true or not I obviously don't know, but fake news, like bad news, travels fast.
I'll reserve judgement until I see it on a reputable MSM source where stories & sources are double-checked. It ain't on the Telegraph or BBC front pages for example, :0)

[naomi24]

Khandro, don’t be so naive.

Danny's link ...

... said ...

> A photo emerged of a woman in Takhar province lying in a pool of blood, with loved ones crouched around her, after she was killed by insurgents for being in public without a head covering, according to Fox News.

... and this linked to this Fox News article ...

> https://www.foxnews.com/world/taliban-killings-continue-afghanistan

... which showed the photo that the NY Post article referred to. And that was the photo that Gromit was talking about as being old.

Too hard to follow? I think not.

[Khandro]

Neither of the 2 women tending to her are wearing burkas (the reason why this unfortunate woman was supposedly shot) It isn't in Kabul & we don't know when the photo was taken.
I shall wait, - & naomi, I'm far from naïve

[naomi24]

If you think they wouldn’t do it then yes, you are naive.
