..."The return of the Taliban to power ended four decades of conflict and has largely made the country secure. But they have dramatically curbed women's rights, preventing most girls from attending secondary school, banning women from traveling alone and making it difficult for them to work.
We visited a Taliban leader's compound to examine his vision for Afghanistan
They've also cracked down on those criticizing their rule, which has chiefly been women demanding their equal rights.
Meanwhile, sanctions have paralyzed the economy and plunged the country into a major humanitarian crisis with many Afghans going hungry. Major aid groups and human rights organizations have pleaded with the international community not to forget the plight of ordinary Afghans, and to allow commerce and trade to continue."

Why does this not surprise me. Taliban broke their agreement with us long before we honored the broken agreement by leaving the country. God Bless these women.
