Afghanistan "Shia Family Law"
4/2/2009 at 7:10 AM
So, if this law does not get repealed, how does everyone feel about our troops still supporting the Afghanistan Government?
Yesterday, Hamid Karzai signed a law into effect which essentially:
Negates the need for sexual consent between married coiuples.
Approves child marriage.
Restricts a woman's right to leave home.
He was more or less forced into signing to give himself(And the Government) a chance of re-election later on this year.
With laws that are so counter to what me believe to be fair and just here at home, how can we honestly provide any support? Whether that be monetary or Militarily?
