According to a report by the Daily Mail, the Taliban’s slow take over of Afghanistan, after the US withdrawal, is having a disturbing consequence for young women.
As they take over a territory, the terrorist organization is reportedly going door-to-door, seizing girls as young as 12 as wives for their troops or as sexual slaves. They are even searching the wardrobes of the family’s home to determine ages and if families are hiding their daughters.
They are also reportedly forcing local imams to provide lists of any unmarried girls or women in their community.
At this point, the Taliban has seized control of nine of Afghanistan’s 34 provincial regions.
Of course, the question that needs to be answered is why are they doing this?
This is a follow-up, to a post from a few days ago about the social upheaval that selective abortions targeting females and polygamy is having in certain countries.
Under Islamic law, a man is allowed to have up to four wives, in addition to several concubines. In some countries, this has resulted in a shortage of females, and thousands of single men with no hope of marriage or starting a family.
One of those countries impacted by this is Afghanistan. According to one report, the Taliban in Afghanistan gets most of its recruits from this growing population of single men. READ: Polygamy in Afghanistan

The daily mail has no one reporting in Afghanistan, it’s second hand rumours which have now been quietly dropped by most of the media as it was almost certainly propaganda.
Which is why the picture you show from RAWA is interesting. This was a radical feminist Maoist group which existed at the time of the original Taliban regime well known for lies and propaganda.
There are likely to be enough problems and issues in Afghanistan for the western media and the haters of Islam to salivate over in the next few months but try to stick to the truth if you want to remain credible in any discussion on such.

A quote from The Guardian by a female journalist in hiding in Afghanistan:
“My decision to leave my home and life was not planned. It happened very suddenly. In the past days my whole province has fallen to the Taliban. The only places that the government still controls are the airport and a few police district offices. I’m not safe because I’m a 22-year-old woman and I know that the Taliban are forcing families to give their daughters as wives for their fighters. I’m also not safe because I’m a news journalist and I know the Taliban will come looking for me and all of my colleagues.”

Multiple media companies quoting the same sources is not extra evidence.
Do you believe the media in the west (or indeed anywhere) is honest and does not report with an agenda?
