Islamic ‘Justice’: Man Arrested for Trying to Marry Girl, 6 – Forced to Wait Til She’s 9 – Report
In 2021, the Biden administration cut and ran in Afghanistan, leaving the country to the Taliban overlords we’d ostensibly saved the country from two decades earlier.
In return, the Taliban promised — albeit in vague terms — that it wouldn’t revert to the same kind of Bronze Age theocracy they presided over in the 1990s. You know, the same kind of theocracy that got thousands of Americans and an untold number of Afghanis killed, and necessitated our involvement there in the first place.
We now know what the new-look Taliban is all about. Now, they’re making sure that 45-year-old men can’t just marry six-year-old girls they buy from poor families. Instead, they have to wait until the girls are nine until the creep can take them home.
Progress!
While multiple outlets outside of Afghanistan picked up the story, it was initially reported by domestic outlet Amu.tv on June 28. The “wedding” — such as it is — apparently was due to take place in Helmand Province, a large but sparsely populated area in the south of the country.
However, authorities took note after the proposed union “sparked widespread condemnation after an image of the wedding circulated on social media.”
