[Austin-ghetto-list] Re: Position of women in Afghanistan

[Jon Ford]

All the more reason for young dudes to go the the US on a big expense 
account to die for their belief-system! As for the women, why don't they 
turn terrorist and blow up the place (Afghanistan,and the Talaban that is)? 
The  oppression of Afghani women is horrific, and they can be killed for the 
slightest infraction of the code of modesty and obedience. I know many 
Afghani women, and have hired several to work with me in my labs. They all 
put female oppresion high on their list for not wanting to return to 
Afghanistan. NONE
