It funny and sad that the Taliban do not allow girls to study or do any other work apart from been Housewives and yet they train girls to be bombers etc. When are these women going to wake up and fight back. If they good enough to die for Islam than are they not good enough to be doctors, soliitors, accountants etc.and help Islam move on to be a more human race who treat everyone in the world as their equal no matter if they are Hindus, British, American etc.
