Taliban A Terrorist Group, Don't Glorify Them, Say Afghan Women

A group of Afghan women blamed the United States and the international community for what they called “double standards” against terrorism. The women referred to Taliban and al-Qaeda and stressed that US installed one “ruler in Kabul” and “targeted” the latter with airstrikes.

The Afghan women said that the Taliban and al-Qaeda are both terrorist groups and they should not be defined as good and bad terrorists.

Holding a symbolic gathering at an unknown location in Afghanistan and Pakistan, these Afghan women questioned the international community’s interaction with the Taliban outside Afghanistan.

On the one-year anniversary of the fall of Kabul to the Taliban, these women said that the Taliban is a terrorist group and a threat to humanity.
