Isn't Turkey ashamed of his crimes? Oh yes they oftenly blame it all on Kurds, PKK and YPG.
It’s sad that I believe the taliban guy more than Biden’s friend.
Isn't USA and UK ashamed of their extensive history of oppression and illegal attacks of other nations?
Why don’t you report on the 20 years of human right abuses and genicide in Afghanistan done by NATO and US
Taliban = uncultured dogs
They are following God law's and command
Afghanistan is the graveyard of the super powers anyone come to invade my country will be ashamed and lose because God is in our sides we are poor people and we have nothing we have God in our sides
So he says we shouldn't believe what that police spokesperson is saying cause he's just a spokesperson, so should we not listen to you cause you're just a spokesperson, all the lies you just said should we believe it?
Women are not equal to men read the bible God is in the head of the branche then is jesus christ like all prophets then men then women it in the bible ,men are God glory and women are Men glory we are not equal at all , men need to submit to God and women need to submit to men we are not equal, you like it or not
Who kills more people in Afghanistan and Iraq and Syria and killing people men and women and children and attack their land for oil and gold and silver and precious jewels , Afghanistan has more than 3 trillions in nature resources wich everyone wants to take and invade the country
America and nato killed millions of millions of inocents afghans people and syrian people and iraqi people and invaded their land for gold and silver and oils and precious jewels in Afghanistan they should be ashamed of killing my people and destroying my country!
''Aren't the Taliban ashamed of their human rights record?''
That's a bold title from a German state funded News Agency, are we forgetting our Human rights record?
Ramstein Military base from where enite Countries are getting destabilized and Civilians killed?
Atleast the Taliban doesn't act like they are Human Rights Champions like so many Western Nations like Germany, France etc.
Afghanistan is the graveyard of the super empire from Mongols to alexander the great for England to Russia and from USA to Nato all supper powers mighty power with mighty military power we have nothing else but almighty God with us they all lost and left ashamed .
Victory belongs to God !
Let my people go!
Says the people droning women and children for 20 years.
compared to the West why would they be ashamed lmao.
Irony is this is coming from the nation directly linked to holocaust ?
Are you not ashamed of civillains killed so far by us in Afganisthan by America??
Dw News Is Literally Whitewashing The War Crimes Of NATO/US Marines. How shameless Western Countries Are, First Invading then Stealing Some Poor Countries Resources if they stand up the. Label them with different Name's.
Isn't DW ashamed that you perpetrated another Kristallnacht against Palestinian journalists?
arent you ashamed of your degeneracy and sadomy and transgandarism and incest?
Wow! I guess the western media has no shame. I think we know better to trust your lies.
When israel isnt then why should the Taliban be.????
DW don't know Sharia Law. Great Taliban
He does noooot look or sound like a afghan omg he is a Pakistani these guys are trained. Makes me sickkk
1. Taliban banned Bacha Bazi while NATO allowed boys to be raped inside of their own military bases. Even Taliban opponents admit this.
2. No mass murder. The UK Defence Chief said that the reports of Taliban killing after amnesty are false (look it on on youtube). Even the UN said that there was evidence of only 100 or so killings. Unlike the US backed government which tortured people to death in Baghram and such.
3.Taliban detain people as temporary arrest, and then free them if innocent. If you are talking about during the war, kidnapping opposition is a valid strategy.
4. What unethical treatment? Women are allowed to get jobs, go to school, etc. They are not forced to cover their face. While the US backed government kidnapped women and took them to their bases, let prostitution rings, etc.
The Taliban are objectively better than any EU nation.
Taliban have there own version of civil rights. Sorry for the people stuck there.
Saying Taliban human rights is truly an Oxymoron.
You guys think that the Taliban should be ashamed but in reality, it is the West who should be ashamed. The US committed genocide in Iraq, with 1 million people dead. Not to mention children orphaned and women windowed in Afghanistan. They even killed 80 thousand Pakistanis (not 80, not 800 but 80 thousand) with their drones.
Before great britain or usa start condeming other people they should see the atrocities that they have done to the prople of Afganistan and the world. Killing millions of people and taking their land because of greed and superiority complex .
Like the red indian in usa said white man speak with fork tounge. Always double standard and think that they are the holiest people.
Obviously NO……Taliban with full bellies walk around as children starve.
this old man has a very closed mind.
this old man is not supposed to be there. what a very pessimistic broadcaster
what kind of interview is this
i
he didn't leave him continue one sentence
The Taliban hands down have more honor than any of these murderous Western nations
Journo is asking questions just like he himself is a big critic of Afghan TALABAN administration and not a independent media representative.dude you held TALABAN responsible for everything happened during the last six months what about Afghan funds freezed in US.
How about those 50 nations that invaded Afghanistan,killing women and children
Horrible reporter didn't even give him a chance to finish what he was saying, I have 100% trust respect and loyalty for the Taliban because my western media wasn't giving me the full message
