Reply to comment by Jarsky2 in Afghan Men Stand in Support of Women After Taliban College Ban by BlitzOrion

You act like the Taliban was some massive unstoppable force. They were outgunned and outnumbered by the Afghan army 2:1. There was just simply no will to fight because the war was against women, not men.

That they should have fought for their future, instead of rolling over in less than a week. And yeah, if this is supposed to be some great tragedy than it would require more people to be effected than there is in this photo.

And frankly, the number of people that are in this photo are probably more than the number that tried to stop the Taliban. So no, my sympathy doesn't go to far in this, but it does go out in droves to those that fight oppression, not just roll over.
