Summary

Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai condemned the Taliban’s treatment of women at a Pakistan summit on girls’ education in Muslim communities, stating, “The Taliban do not see women as human beings.”

She criticized their policies banning Afghan girls from education and work as “gender apartheid” and un-Islamic.

Afghanistan is the only country banning education for girls beyond grade six, affecting 1.5 million girls.

Malala urged Muslim leaders to challenge these practices and advocate for girls’ education globally.

The Taliban declined to attend or comment.

      Why do you jump to religion and not simply conclude that the Talibans are massive incels? You do realize that out of two billion Muslims only the Taliban are doing this shit right? Malala is calling them un-Islamic for a reason.

        religion is in itself a ridiculous premise, and the type is largely irrelevant (islam/christianity).

        they are a disease that should be eradicated. humanity will never move forward with such archaic ideas.

          Ok will you be consistent and mention the same of other ideologies that have wreaked havoc? By the way you associate things you have to acknowledge the death and destruction brought upon by secular and atheist states from colonialism to modern day imperialism.

          I’ll list some examples of states that caused a lot of death and destruction:

          • USSR a secular atheist state that killed millions and committed ethnic cleansing. (One ex. Is what they did in Kazakhstan)

          • USA and France and their invasion of Vietnam

          • All that was done by secular states in the colonial era

          • all that is being currently by secular states in the neo colonial era

          • US invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.

          • Russian invasion of Ukraine

          I can keep going.
