I don't think everyone looked like that back then and not everyone looks like this now.. And yes islam is part of the change, but I think its a personal choice if women choose to cover themselves now its their choice, islam doesn't make you do it (sorry for my bad english I'm still learning)
Islamic extremists is what happened, And no, women do not have a choice in whether or not they wear hijabs etc,. in public because it's against the law not to. Women are not people in countries where extreme Islam is the law. Women cannot be out in public without a male member of their family and if they are raped, they are stoned to death in a public square for adultery. Forget voting or driving. The taliban, al qaeda, hamas and other violent sects are controlling government and military power.
I don't care that this was two weeks ago. I will reply. 1. We are NOT, I repeat, NOT forced to wear a hijab. We are required by law (not our religion) to wear an abaya (which is a black robe), for the sake of decency. Not all of us like this law, but we arent killed if we don't wear one. I can open it all the way, and no one can fucking call me out on shit. 2. I can go out to the mall, every weekend with my friends, without a man, and no one except for my parents can tell me not to. 3. Islam teaches that a woman is a sacred creature and is worthy of all forms of respect. Human beings just suck. It is the governement that considers us to be non-human. 4. Never in my life have I heard of such a law where a woman is stoned for being raped.
5. We fucking despise Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and Hamas just as much as the next people, mind you. They are not controlling anyone except those who are completely un-able to fight back.
This is not Islamic Extremism, Islamic Extremism would be rather peaceful-
It's like WBC using the Bible to gay-bash. There's only one verse in the Bible that explicitly prohibits gay sex, and that's just gay sex. Not being gay. By using the false extrapolation used by WBC, we can also say that anal and oral sex is bad.
america backed the taliban in the beginning so they could get soviet rule out of Afghanistan. they literally funded them, so yeah america did sort of happen. look up Operation Cyclone on wikipedia for more info if you'd like.
Oh and why did America amongst others invade Afghanistan? They knew the whole time that Osama Bin Laden has been in Pakistan, at home... The Taliban were not responsible for 9/11, but Al Quaeda was. You do not invade a Country because you're looking for one person. You have Special Units and Spy Agencies for that. And that is how Osama bin Laden was killed in the End. They did not invade Pakistan, they "just" broke some laws in Pakistan. How ignorant are you people?
If we're ignorant, I would like a reason as to why you're here. You have the AUDACITY to insult us, when you're anonymous. You're not in a position to try to make us feel bad, because we ALL know that Guest Insults carry no weight at all.
how did I overreact, or insult you? I do not want to make an account, because I do not care enough. but if it takes me taking back any insult for you to listen to me: I sincerely apologize for making you feel bad. but please feel free to research the information I provided.
You called all of us ignorant. You didn't need to write a whole paragraph all snarky like that. Unnecessary. It's not our fault if we don't know 100% everything, and it doesn't mean we lack intelligence.
No, Ignorance means exactly "not knowing", it does not mean "lack of intelligence". Of course, It may not be your fault that you do not know everything. But then you do not act like a little know-it-all. And no I did not call all of you ignorant, it was not what I meant to say anyways: the english language is not my mother tongue, you see? What is important to me, and that is the reason I am still responding, is that I WANT you to know the fact that US governments have been backing so called rebels, extremists and fundamentalists to forward their own interests for decades now. They are not the only ones but yeah it is true. It isn't a conspiracy therory but common knowledge. I really do not want to make you feel bad. I want you to question how the world is working. And I must say that I am disappointed that you did not accept my apology, and are still complaining.
Now you're just writing whole paragraphs unnecessarily. For the record, you don't have to say you accept to accept an apology.
And also, please calm down. You don't need to write a whole paragraph in anger. I can tell you used a thesaurus, anyway.
Bookhoarder making herself look ridiculous. Guest proved you wrong and now you're calling him angry and making him apologize because it's the only crutch you have left to stand on vs just admitting you were wrong
Many women like and take pride in their religous clothing that cover them up. People say it's ok if you want to walk around half naked and nobody should judge you, but when a woman keeps covered up for religous reasons or whatever else voluntarily they are criticized and judged because they prefer to dress modestly and people still tell them to wear less.
Afghanistan was messed up primarily by the Taliban.

My parents are from Afghanistan so I'm more qualified than anyone to tell you that the Taliban is responsible for this. Their violent and extremist ways stray from the proper Islamic teachings and they have ruined so many lives and families. Yes, Islam does recommend a dress code for women, but only to protect her modesty and beauty. However, Islam is not THIS strict on women's dress. Who are? Extremists. And there are extremists in every religion, just remember that. I am a devoted Muslim and I, like most, will pick discussion over destruction any day.
THANK YOU! Finally someone gets it. Im embarrased over the people saying it was the US or IS, that is another time another place. And I hate that people mistake extremists for the "regular" muslims, it's so sad.

Anytime :) Extremists have been around since the very beginning, long before America was even founded. The problem is, a lot of people (Muslims and non-Muslims) don't take the time to study and research the history of it all. That's why we have some Muslims blaming the US and some non-Muslims blaming Islam. It all comes down to understanding and knowledge. And speaking of which, thank you for being so understanding.

This is not Islamic Extremism, Islamic Extremism would be rather peaceful-
A.) Apologize for your insult
B.) apologize for your insult and admit you overreacted.
C.) admit you overreacted
