#Taliban edict to resume #stoning #women to #death met with horror

The Taliban’s announcement that it is 🔥resuming publicly stoning women to death🔥 has been enabled by the international community’s silence, human rights groups have said.
Safia Arefi, a lawyer and head of the #Afghan #human #rights organisation 🔸Women’s Window of Hope🔸, said the announcement had condemned Afghan women to return to the darkest days of Taliban rule in the 1990s.

“With this announcement by the Taliban leader, a new chapter of private punishments has begun and Afghan women are experiencing the depths of loneliness,” Arefi said.

“Now, no one is standing beside them to save them from Taliban punishments. The international community has chosen to remain silent in the face of these violations of women’s rights.”

@garyackerman Or as my father used to say “change is evolution, rapid change is revolution.”

A prominent Georgia state Republican, who has repeatedly claimed the 2020 election was stolen, was found to have voted illegally nine times.

Heard today on MSNBC: Big Pharma- a one month supply of Ozempic costs $.89-$5.00 to manufacture, sells for $150 in Canada and $1000 in the USA.

You, your health plan or Medicare with RX coverage, the govt is paying these outlandish prices. And you can pay for it in the Medicare donut hole. No good for our National or personal budgets. Senator Sanders says he’ll do something about it.
Another med even more crazy: Actemra $5k per month to treat Temperal Arteritis…😳

Remember a month or so ago when I split my scalp open and got an ambulance ride to the ER and a CT scan and an EKG and some staples whacked into my head? The bill came.

It was $200.

Well, that was my out-of-pocket. The actual bill was $4,598.37.

Well, that’s what the insurance company paid by contract. The actual actual bill was $25,546.25.

It’s like I got a twenty-five grand bonus just because I have a job.

The American medical system is insane.

Still waiting on the ambulance invoice.

Taiwan's navy chief, Tang Hua, will visit the United States next week to attend a military ceremony and discuss how to boost bilateral naval cooperation as China raises threats toward the island, six people briefed on the trip said.

@TruthSandwich If they ever stopped to think…. @Oeneus@assortedflotsam.com

The tank destroyed in #Ukraine 🇺🇦 has been identified as the very one responsible for the loss of Hungarian 🇭🇺 lives during the tragic events of 1956! Today, #Ukraine's 🇺🇦 defense assures #Hungary 🇭🇺 that they will be kept safe from any such threats.

Who thinks Republicans were treated unfairly by God? They didn't get a brain.

@Oeneus@assortedflotsam.com If the people who claim they are only antiZionist and not antisemitic would stop and think about it, they’d be harassing Baptists as well as Jews.

Amit Soussana was a lawyer, and the first time I saw her on video was in an unbelievable video from Oct 7 where 8 armed men! are dragging her to G@za as she is fighting them with strength and courage that I cannot even comprehend, beating her to stop fighting, all the while - she is not even fully dressed!

Next, I see her after her return from being in captivity, starting to talk anywhere for the release of the other kidnapped that are still there.

And now, she came out - with the same unimaginable bravery - speaking of the sexu@l buse she went through, and I feel that she is doing that for the women left behind who are still going through the same, or worse, and for the other women who came back and are incapable of sharing what was done to them by H@mas.

לא נשכח ולא נסלח
lo neesh-'kakh ve-'lo nees-'lakh
We won't forget, and we won't forgive

I can promise you that.
