It’s time to take back Afghanistan from the Taliban
Friday 15 August is a painful anniversary for Afghanistan – it is four years since the Taliban took Kabul, turning my country into the worst place in the world to be a woman, and once again a safe haven for terrorists. We can mobilise many thousands of young men and women who are ready to fight for change in Afghanistan For Afghans who fled to neighbouring countries in fear for their lives the situation has recently become dramatically worse. Iran had already pushed back hundreds of thousands of Afghan refugees across the border. Since its 12-day war with Israel, it has significantly increased the expulsions, alleging that Afghans helped Mossad’s operations inside Iran. Many of those being forcibly returned are soldiers who fought for the Afghan republic.
