Afghanistan: Taliban storm home of female doctor, beat her and her family members

The doctor, Fahima Rahmati, is a woman. That is enough as a criterion for abuse by the Taliban, given its well-documented history. The Taliban has fashioned its interim government — “the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan” — after the Iranian regime, with jihadists from Guantanamo in government. It has already gained legitimacy from the UN indirectly via funding, and open support from Qatar, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Hamas, China and others. The UK has indicated its readiness to embrace it if the Taliban respects “inclusivity.”

At the core of the Western willingness to accept the Taliban as legitimate is the complete blindness about what the Taliban represents: strict adherence to the literal teachings of the Qur’an and Hadith, as well as willful blindness and lack of concern about the well-being of women, infidels, religious minorities and dissidents, who are being oppressed, murdered and abused under Taliban rule. The treatment of Dr. Fahima Rahmati will be commonplace in Afghanistan as the country descends into the most barbaric form of Islamization. Recall in 2015:

a 27-year-old Afghan woman was beaten and burned alive in the very heart of Kabul by a mob of angry men. Hundreds of people watched the killing of Farkhunda Malikzada, a student of the Koran and Islamic Shari’a law, while others participated in the rampage. The mob’s outrage had been ignited by a false rumor that Farkhunda had blasphemed the Prophet Muhammad.
