The Taliban continues its demonic subjugation of women. After it recently banned women from universities, the Afghan rules have stopped women from working in non-governmental organisations in the nation. The heinous and most reprehensible regime, touting Islamic traditions, is back to its ways of erasing one half of the population.

There has been a flurry of comments and opinions about stopping women from university education. Some Islamists have actually supported the Taliban decision. Others have equivocated, asking that we must first ascertain where the Taliban is coming from, before castigating them completely.
