Ok
is there a way that we can support that maternity ward?

SLAVA UKRAINE
That 24 year old doctor is someone who needs to be recognized. What a human being.
If she gets recognition, she would probably be killed for her views on the Taliban
She should get a Nobel Prize or something.
@@prasanna3378 Politicians and other public figures get nobel prizes, people like her get several stones moving at high speed.
Wow so impressed by her
Yeah
The woman running the shelter is incredibly brave and strong. Hope she's safe.
Shes probably not in the safest place
she's not, she's definitely going to be killed for this in the next year or two.
This is the real pandemic! so much worse in Afghanistan, but every woman I've known has been ruffed up by a man at least once, in America.
@@Ass_of_Amalek let's not say ''definitely''
They cut off hand for theft, but zero punishment for beating women? How can people be this horribly ignorant & cruel.
That older Afghan woman who was running the shelter was absolutely amazing, you could really sense how much she cared, her insights, her courage and compassion - just amazing.
istn't older woman in dagner now, after showing this video to the world by VICE?
That's what I was thinking. Surely they shouldn't have included her face and her name. It seems like it's dangerous for her.
That brave women in the refugee center name is Mahbouba siraj, Niece of Afghan king Amanullah khan
Yes. She made a powerful impression on me.
All the people in the audiences have 2 choices: pretend to agree or die.. just like Hitlers speeches and other dictatorships speeches, incouding Russia in times past.. If they decide to protest, they die. What a truly awful system of governance to be under. It's like the activists here who try to ruin people's livlihoods for not agreeing with them, but on steroids. Neither one is justice.
Respect to Isobel Yeung. She really went into the viper's pit and stirred a nest of vipers by reporting in Taliban ruled Afghanistan. That small interview with that judge in Wardak was really tense. You can't argue with them either or they could have done anything. I'm glad Isobel acted wisely. Really brave reporting.
You can literally find hundreds of girl tourists on youtube right now. This is all bs. Its safe af. They are treated kind
*Quran 4:34* Men are in charge of women by what Allah has given one over the other. So righteous women are devoutly obedient. But those from whom you fear arrogance - advise them; forsake them in bed; and STRIKE them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand. *Sahih al-Bukhari 1:301* "Once Allah’s Apostle (Peace be Upon Him) passed by the women and said, “O women! Give alms, as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women).” They asked, “Why is it so, O Allah’s Apostle ?” He replied, “I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you.” The women asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?” He said, “Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man? This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn’t it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses? This is the deficiency in her religion.”
cause they won't do anything to her. She knows that. You guys dehumanise them unjustly after they got bombed for decades
Really dumb reporting. Sending a woman for this assignment is monumentally stupid, as her access is automatically restricted.
how naive you are)) real beasts sit in your governments and in the management of the largest corporations!
When the judge said “there is no abuse against women, only accusations” my heart sunk, many prayers for all the people suffering
copied comment
yeah is it something bad or good ?
Yeah, what a chilling moment ...
@@Aparris so what ?, atleast hes taking an effort to put a good message out.
Getting my pet to the vetenarian and vaccinated involves more steps and investigation than this disgrace of a justice system, no surprise there.
“You’re not only going to kill me, but 29 other children” Right into the camera man’s eyes. I don’t know if they will die or not, but her conviction in that sentence was chilling. Showing their faces seems dangerous
She say women, not children
@@no5829 Women and children
yeah, I don't think that giving her name and showing her face was that relevant. they revealed that by taliban law, she is sheltering at least one fugitive (from a death sentence), that could easily be enough of a reason to search the place and identify all the women and girls there.
It should be a given they should be blurring all their faces, names, and voices
A peaceful religion 🤣
Hats off to the reporter. The bravery to go there as a woman is amazing
As a father of a 16 month old, I truly cannot fathom the pain these women go through. I cried at the malnourished hospital.

Isobel is reporter of the decade, no question. The dangers she has put herself through for the most candid and important stories are unmatched.
One of the more legit ones at Vice. Most are cringe.
She's gotta be incredibly brave to go up to those guys and ask questions like those. Very brave indeed because the Taliban is ruthless.
@@monkeypawism Who's that guy who just does a lot of drugs and looks ghoulish? Hahaha
@@monkeypawism What? You didn't like the hard hitting journalism when they looked into the life of lot lizards or the ironic expose on trash TV??? 😂
Wat danger ,,you people are the danger these people are in their country with no problems ,,,why always you western make other people look bad when you are the trouble of the world killing innocent people,,,I'm in the western I will be save in Afghanistan than the western,,,,
The woman delivering the baby while taking phone calls for more people that need help is crazy. Gave me chills, SHE is the definition of astounding.
@@ArkanceloAutore yeah starting to notice this every time they report
omg so stunning and brave the crisis actors
she is dead now because they showed her face
@@Spookykidshow no, she wears hijab don't worry 😏.
And medical malpractice 🤣 delivered the baby only for it to get infected and die. Yay!
Hats - off to the lady who did the entire reporting. Requires indefatigable courage for the work she did.
It's absurd to hear your own parent tell you that you don't deserve human rights. great documentary. Isobel is a truly excellent reporter.
to hear your own father say you don’t deserve human rights is insane. amazing documentary. isobel is rly an amazing reporter
That judge made me laugh when he said women have lesser brains he genuinely believes this what an idiot that reporter is a million times smarter than this subhuman
@@king_boy7334 show me this science
@@notdzejl4n391 yes thats sad. but th western world is not a hair better.
I find it really interesting that the same reporter went to Gaza and presented Hamas' side as if it is morally equivalent to Israel's, when in fact Hamas and Taliban are one and the same.
@@aaidelbessraoui2650 yep thats why many people are dying to go to america and canada
"To be honest, I feel sad whenever a girl is born in Afghanistan." This is so sad to hear, it almost made me cry.

@@aboislamwwmwwm2233 shut up
how about latinos women, they got more violence bro
How about the naked women in the West who are depicted as sex objects to sell the latest car for example?
A girl just exists, she doesn't have a proper life in afganistan... this line hit hard, i feel immense pain for afgan girls...this is heartbreaking💔
the most disgusting this is that the afghani men didn't want to fight for their women and freedom. Absolutely despicable.
The way he said there are no broken bones ,no witnesses just accusations. The way he insisted that the women are protected. I’m speechless.
The fact that these “judges” believe a man’s words over the “accusations” and proof of medical records from the victim is beyond my imagination 🤦🏻♀️
Yep, real old school middle ages type mentality. It will take generations before this changes.
He looked so serious ,he spoke what he seen
the whole arabic culture is stupid and shouldnt exist, say what you want that we should have cultural diversity but sometimes there is a culture so stupid like this one, that deserve to go extint. Sadly the only ones that could do something left earlier this year. GG
@@stevvvvveperry Why do you Westerners think everyone in the world wants to live by your values? This region has its own traditions and customs. These people want to be free from the liberalism and Americanism that was imposed upon them for 18 years.
"There is no abuse towards women, only accusations" Traumatizing statement.
There is no war in ba sing se.
These pigs always deny their vices
Hey. The first rule of bacha bazi is, "Don't talk about bacha bazi."
Ba Sing Se Mentality
TBH - a lot of abuse accusations are complete BS
My eyes are literally filled up with tears after watching the situation of Afghanistan 🥺
I couldnt help but break down at the part with all the babies. That was extremely hard to watch. Its really sad to hear the doctor say when she sees a baby girl is born she feels sad knowing the life she will have to face in Afghanistan.
'I feel sad whenever a girl is born in Afghanistan'. This line signifies everything.
Would you prefer a better Afghanistan or a Western Afghanistan?

This was truly heartbreaking. I applaud the journalist for asking members of the Taliban tough questions and not backing down. Well done.
With all the guns around her, that's bravery on another level
I thought the taliban were quite brave to face the religious fundamentalists of Vice news.
@@daftwod It might be because they know nothing would ever happen to them
Why is your focus in the world on tough questions for taliban? They’re doing Allah’s work and for example gotten rid of pedophilic practices that was Allowed when USA occupied
@@dajjukunrama5695 Yea I’m sure there are no more pedophiles, just like how women and children aren’t being abused. Get out of here. Allah wouldn’t approve of the talibans practices and views on women.
Life under the Taliban is a disaster. What you see is just an extremely small example. What happens is unbelievable and unimaginable. They stopped three of my sisters from going to school. They would have graduated university last year but all their hopes and dreams went in vain. I am literally tired of life.
I’m speechless. A year later and I wonder how many of these kids made it. My heart breaks for all the injustice that goes on in the world
You see women walking in America who cant name 3 countries, and these women who deserve education cant get it. This goes to show women squander the chances they have
This is journalism, not the one sitting and speaking behind an electronic table, make absolutely no mistake. Kudos to the whole team.
The original Vice news was great when Smith ran it. Vice is now owned by Disney and Hearst media. Vice has a left bias that is obvious. I believe in more left values, but am super disappointed that Vice doesn't report fairly.
@@tylercurtis265 it's 100 times better than any CNN or BBC. We should give credit where its due.
Its insane that westerners believe this propaganda, its like a movie, the guy in prision speaking up that he is there for nothing, then the call, this is clearly a movie
@@ivankovacic7466 westerners believe all the propaganda. The right eats up all FOX News propaganda and the left eats up all the corporate Democrat establishment elite propaganda. Most people in my town still wear masks outside/in their car and are eager to show a vaccine card at restaurants when we all know that a person vaccinated or not can catch and spread a virus that mostly affects 80 year olds. America is lost and will eat up any BS they hear.
@@tylercurtis265 this report videos have a clear narative from the begining, they play on emotions, the journalist speaks like a little inocent girl to subconciously manipulate audiance not to question what she says.
Crazy how we forget the taliban run a whole country now cuz of the other craziness going on
Yeah, I feel like crazy for thinking about Afghanistan because it feels like others have forgotten it
Crazy to think people were mad the US was there in the first place. Only thing keeping the former government in power.
@@412pgh2 the U.S did awful things and did keep a corrupt government there but also negotiated with the taliban so now that they left those barbarians have advanced weaponry that conveniently the U.S left too (the U.S arming the taliban isn't new at all tho....)
@@412pgh2 So people shouldn't be mad at one of the countries who sealed Afghanistan's fate of how it is today? Afghanistan was nothing more than a way of making it Vietnam 2.0 but for Russia.
@@facuuu2809 your moms a barbarian Everyone loves the Taliban, you don't know what your dirty solidiers did with our women and they take our kids and joke with them. They enter homes illegally and do wrong things as if they were superior Alhamdulillah Afghanistan is free from the cruel now.
As a former Marine, who fought in Afghanistan, I am appalled at what I'm seeing.
as a chinese i m trying to understand this war. China has " peace" . But now i kind of really understand PEACE is more than physically. U may have a " physically peaceful" city that doesnt stop u from being mentally abuse , or children taking away by the " system "
what was it like when you were there, everyone keeps saying the US ruined it all but im curious to hear about what it was like on ur tours
Nothing like that, mostly people minded their own business, but yes, we ruined it for sure. @@aidensample1757
@@aidensample1757 they say US ruined it because they wanna keep the truth a secret and not expose of what's actually happening.
That is fucking because of you, if the US did not invade Afghanistan none of this will happen!
My soul hurts watching this documentary. I truly hope and pray these women and children get the help they desperately need.
I'm in absolute awe of the woman running the refuge centre. She deserves international recognition.
I’d like to know her name and if there’s anything other women like myself can do to help her. She was amazing! What a true and beautiful warrior!
@@dawncombs1408get her out of Afghanistan that's the best thing you can for her
Her and the doctors taking care of the small children are true heroes
Agreed what an amazing human being 🤙
*Most of us Afghans don't want the txliban txrrorists here in Afghanistan. You could see that in the pictures of the airport in Kabul where people literally risked their lives to leave just to not be in the same country with the txliban txrrorists whose biggest fear are educated Afghan women will rise an educated and awaken society.* *Afghanistan as the center of Asia isn't just strategic a very important point but has also countless priceless minerals, gemstones, oil, gas etc. which can't be plundered when it's a stable country. So some big government and company trained and armed the txliban virus to break in Afghanistan and keep it unstable and plunderable.* *But to make the world believe that we Afghans ourselves wanted the txliban txrrorists there are bots and fake accounts which support the txliban txrrorists in social media. Same bots which USA and Russia use during elections. Most of this fake accounts, which are only made for this, are always just a few months old and have no other contests in their profiles. But what is fact is that most of us Afghans see the txliban as another virus we have to survive.🇦🇫🇦🇫❤️🩹❤️🩹✌️*
Its crazy to think how LUCKY and PRIVILEGED we are. What a heartbraking documentary...the reporter is an absolute badass
Meanwhile everyone here in the US is worried about being misgendered these people are literally fighting everyday to calm an empty stomach.

Incredible journalism, intimate, informative. I’m impressed with your vigor and resolve and ability to uncover the struggles that lay beneath the sanctioned veils.
3:26 This picture says it all. I've been to the Middle East a couple of times now and one thing you realize is that to be a kid in a western country is NOT the same as being a child in the Middle East. "Kids" start to run their family shops, they become soldiers, etc. So whenever you hear some headline that a 13 year old (or similar age) was killed, don't automatically assume he was watching Sponge Bob, playing video games, working on a school science project, or out riding bikes with his friends. It's truly a different culture, a different world.
“Women aren’t speaking up, because they’re protected”…..quite possibly the most absurd, ridiculous sentence I’ve ever heard spoken.
By Protected they actually meant opressed and controlled by men.
@@AdvaiticOneness1 …Yep…disgusting.

no doubt she's passionate. but she's also wrong in that she said the US didn't care, doesn't care , about them . if anything the US and allies overly cared , and i think lost sight of the end goal , which was to give the country back to them , under their control , and their leadership . the problem is that the afghans lost sight also , and instead of investing into their systems , they invested into fighting . they never showed any real effort to be what they said they wanted to be , and govern , they chose more general like positions and their leadership became to warriors. not thinkers . . . and now 20 years into it , the older generation is dead, the younger generation has always been traumatized and brainwashed with n exposure to outside realities. and this cycle will remain among them. the Taliban and afghan national govt bear more responsibility than the US. we weren't even out of there before their president, or their army who didn't want o take on those last days ..

nerving disturbing muzak
@@shawn2789 Only a bit. She said it was one of the priorities stated by the US government for getting involved. Is this not true? Women's rights under the Taliban is clearly the main focus, not why the US occupied.
@@mikemike9213 Journalism can inform and change minds of others who may be able to influence issues. I guess she believes not everybody is as informed as you.
"International community left Afghan women the same way they left Afghanistan. Like a hot potato. Burnt their hands - dropped it. We've been dropped. They couldn't care less about Afghan women. They couldn't care less to what happened to the Afghan people." I literally do not have words. This world is extremely frustrating.
This is the western feminist fault. They are so tough in democratic countries but there they don t go:))
I don't know what people expected to happen, the people in Afghanistan didn't want to try, they had two decades of aid from the largest super power in the globe, more money than anyone can dream of pumped into the country, and they fucking blow it. From 2020 and onwards, expect more conflict, more killings, more dictatorships to come up. The United States from this point is honestly about to be finished being the world protector, and no one else is going to help. Just isn't happening. It's clear the people living in Afghanistan just wanted to suffer, and honestly they deserve it.
20 years is a hot potato? Give me a break.
It is a highly sensitive and charged topic. I have an Afghan friend who says that she is not anti-Taliban, nor pro-Taliban. However, she argues that Taliban have had some positives, particularly kicking out Western influence. She also believes that the women in a way are more "free" than women in Western countries because they don't have to work to live/survive; a man (partner or father) is religiously and culturally expected to make the money and get the necessities for survival. And finally, she speculates that those (especially in Western countries) who are against Taliban's views and laws on women are Islamophobic to some degree, and that they criticize Taliban's violent acts as a sort of pretext to criticize Islam. Thin lines and thin ice to walk on when taking on this topic.
@@awfan221 yeah maybe the Taliban judge was talking about your friend when he said "women have lesser brain and are not good believers"
Absolutely brilliant reporting. Thank you.
This is heart-wrenching 💔
"theres no abuse towards women only accusations" this truly chills me to my core
@My Bro Americans are brainwashed hypocrites
Every Iranian Culture are like these smart people. 👏 Iran Tajikistan Afghanistan Kurdistan ...
@My Bro It was not my country who did it, I always was against drone strikes too. I was against america invading the middle east. I am against Russia invading Ukraine today and I was always against how Islam treats women in all those countries where Islam holds power. women suffer everywhere where Islam holds the power to control and punish them.
Nobody even talks about abuses towards men. Imagine how chilling THAT is. EVERYONE talks about abuse towards women.
Your core was not born yet when your country nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki
The doctor in the maternity ward is an angel and honestly, what she said about the baby girls being born in Afghanistan brought tears to my eyes.
@Enrique Morales The US ain't starving them.Whu don't they go buy some more food from another country?
They have much more protection now rather than under US occupation. Around 1000 people (Afghan civilians) died in a month because of only US bombs
Also, these cases are the extreme cases. Mostly people are given food during this winter, especially EU helped more than 22 million in target until end of this year
@Enrique Morales How would lifting sanctions end the oppression of women in Afghanistan? The Taliban and Afghan society at large are the ones suppressing them.
Taliban is not ISIS, they're just doing what Quran says. They defend their own land while ISIS recruit people globally and harm other people worldwide. Taliban doesn't lie, Taliban serves for the people and distribute the aid. Maybe even better than the corrupted former US led Afghanistan government, Afghanistan was the most unsafe country before, and now protection is better alhamdulillah. That's the difference
😢😢😢 i was crying..I can't help it!!! Poor and helpless babies and women.

You should travel to Afghanistan and tell him that. They value men because they do the fighting, killing, and dying +(قرآن). Name 1 war the West has won since the burning of the undergarments post 1950s. (Gulf War, No... Iraq is still the same, Bosnia, No.... Cold war 🙄 ect...) I love the West and value equality, but the evidence is out in the open. I wouldn't trade my female doctor, for a gan doc, ever. Evidence.
1 more thing: Look into how much money/aid the West is now giving the Taliban. None of that is going to the people. Your governments know this. They don't care about about those women an children. VICE knows this too. This is just for clicks and feels. It's all staged as well. Don't be a sucker.

Too bad America and the West ABANDONED these brave women after the military industrial complex got money from U.S taxpayers for 20+ years. The hypocrisy of America’s democracy is well known throughout the world. Tyrants like Saudi king who commits genocide and human rights violations they give him a pass due to American interest (oil) while others are used to invade their countries. Typical delusional hypocrites.

@Freedom Forever You should the amount of heads exploding of innocent men, women, and children by western bombs. The U.S government murdered 10 innocent children as they were leaving Afghanistan.

Now, how many westerners will acknowledge that they are the real terrorist by killing more innocent civilians than all of the terrorist they claim to “fight”?

@@feka3764 not true as exposing the blatant falsehoods sickness of the quran and the most obvious false prophet in history is the place to start. Secondly for the west to stop supporting Islam and stop condemning soldiers who fought and died to try and end this garbage
"I feel sad whenever a girl is born in Afghanistan." My heart ached when she said that. Humanity is failing in Afghanistan.
after hearing someone who was married at 7 years old will be stoned to death and some religious head saying "it will get much worse, Taliban is not serious now" im so shocked
Pretty much every empire both modern and old have tried to conquer Afghanistan. You can battle people but can't fight the terrain. They've got home court advantage and will always win
@@andcam2683 stop sending food aid to be allowed to exploit their resources and see how quickly it disintegrates.
@@alexiosnektarios5429 talk to biden about that. He just decided to send 308m to a country run by terrorists. I'm sure it'll all go to the hungry people 🙄. But ultimately I agree with you. Especially with no military presence it's not like the bad guys don't take what they want anyways so at least SOME supplies would end up in the hands of the wrong people.
Where have you been for the last twenty years? Since so much pity for the women of Afghanistan
Exemplary courageous brilliant documentary, hats off to you.
This woman’s amazing how I’m only seeing this now is beyond me how carefully and professional she is is absurd can only tilt my hat to her
Will never understand why a father, brother or husband can do this to their own mother, sister or wife. Humanity 🤮
The answer to your very valid question, is brainwashing from birth. Religious brainwashing from birth will give the men the right to do anything to a woman with no penalties to them. This is part of their religion and culture. This is religion at its worst !!!
Dubai is a Great, mighty Islamic country why aren't helping Afgans? Shameful!
@@3d8d Because Dubai is not a country (it is a city) and it does not have a military even a quarter as powerful as those of the states. If the US failed, how do you expect the UAE to succeed?
@@rishabhmulay5230 I think the answer is allot easier, they simply don’t care enough.
For the same reason women help suppress other females and are happy to produce sons for future wars. This is an entire culture here, it's not just the men holding the whip hand, a large number of women support the system too.
"There are no abuse, just accusations " "Women have lesser brains" My goodness, the illiteracy and ignorance of that man is absolutely horrible. I pray that these people come to their sense and for human beings to have rights again cause these little men are so insecure, it stinks through the phone
The mfer even said he swore it on his faith so he’s telling the truth lol smh. It’s so messed up, I feel so sad for that dude’s sis with the broken bones 😢😢😢
@@vegetaking1272 because his faith allows him so he doesn't see any wrongdoings. I feel so bad for the women...literally have no other choice
He’s not insecure, he’s a delusional 3rd world religious nut job. This whole video made me realize how much of a joke it is that women in the west cry about their rights being infringed when these poor afghani women have nothing
Its their culture these men are 100 times more maculine than what men in west are today do you think that ”little men” could defeat one of the biggest armies on world lol
They will never come to their senses unfortunately, living in the Stone Age they don’t want to change , it’s so sad 😢
4:04 This reporter is truly something else. I'm not sure if I would have had the balls to ask a question like this in that room
The fact that 87% of women there suffer violence while living this encaged miserable life, makes it really hard for me to have compassion for any men in Afghanistan, not just taliban.
I salute the 24 year old doctor who single handedly managed the whole maternity ward.YOU TRULY ARE AN INSPIRATION.
Vice sends a woman to do the interview would seem to me like a slap in the face to the Taliban. Almost like they are doing it on purpose.

@@elefre4008 I felt having a woman report on this gives a far more realistic view on what's happening. The men who literally won't look at or be seen with her tells us so much more than if someone just said "they don't look at women" or whatever. Also it means you know the Taliban are serious when they say women are lesser than men right in front of the woman talking to them.
The WHOLE WORLD needs to see this! Such tragedy. Deeply disturbing. Utmost respect to the Vice journalist putting herself in potential danger covering this sad story.
I don't see them throttling her, what's your problem, US stayed there 20 and did the same thing they did in Vietnam...

Abusing women is not islam, Marrying a 7 year old to 80 year old is not islam, marrying a girl who is 7 years old to an 80 year without her consent is not islam. The prophet pbuh said "The best of you are those who are best to their wives"
"A girl is just existing. She doesn't have a proper life." This just shattered my heart to pieces. Kudos to the 24 year midwife. Someone protect her at all cost please. I hope Afghanistan gets peace soon. And I hope all the women in the world could live freely and happily.

As a single violent drunk, men should go live in Afghanistan
Sounds like the life of most men in America
@@nwonomad in what way is it even remotely similar..?
Their women is there business. Stop acting like a white knight, a lot of women and children were killed by US forces.
"Women have lesser brains and are not good believers". Hearing that will give a person chills, especially when you see how serious he is.

This was an extremely hard watch. These poor women deserve to feel safe. These poor children deserve to be protected. My heart goes out to the doctors.
Most of em don’t want to be doctors or a midwife but it is the only way they can go outside
Tell you what find me one and I will marry her. Show her what freedom is.
Unfortunately the west completely lost there and the Taliban achieved a total victory. Countries in the West though still seem to think they can't dictate terms. The lower doesn't get to dictate terms. The best we can do now is just use aid and assistance as a moderating influence. The west doesn't want terrorism and the poppy trade returning either.
@@tableccentric 😂😂how optimistic , in reality they'll behead any girl who is with an infidel.
@@lw3646 the only way to do is to convert them or make camps like in china to educate them

@@ronpackman2266 something tells me you're uneducated.
Yes agreed. And women in the west complain about equality and men? They should see how these poor Afghan women live if they want too see true abuse and inequality.
The problem is that women want to have multiple partners or cheat If you give them freedom and independency, and also divorce and take half of Men's properties which they worked hard for

OMGGG, that Gynecologist Sister is amazing. Subhan Allah the way she is motivating the lucky/poor women is absolutely phenomenal. As a native Pashto speaker my heart just melted after hearing her uttering those beautiful supportive lines. I guess some of the Taliban's spokesman views during interview are cut. The Judge talking about Sharia and Law is not full justice with its vast concept, originality and fruitfulness. You can watch some other court videos of Taliban under Sharia. At Border: the scenes were horrific. The mother who was crying her heart out was heartbreaking. Girl at school: the young sister at school who was worried about her education and future was very sad. I don't agree with how the women rights are presented (like the spokesperson saying women/men don't have equal rights 😢) women in Islam have more rights than men. Men in Islamic society have more responsibilities than women. Providing the best in his capacity, protecting them physically and psychologically, loving them with absolute affection, caring about their dignity, providing for the children, educating and nourishing the children... Etc Brother showing X-Ray: WAllahi this was absolute wildness and madness. 😢😢 Women are not mad for this. At least we Muslims should study and practise Islam in correct way. ALLAH SWT says: و عاشروھن باالمعروف " and live with your women in a very kind manner". ھن لباس لکم و انتم لباس لھن And said: و جعلنا بینکم مودۃ و رحمۃ Holy Prophet Said: خیرکم خیرکم لاھله 😢😢😢😢
Isobel has incredible courage and her persistence is contagious. may this type of investigative journalism live on.
I'm a 50 year old grown as man who's spent 17 years behind bars in the penitentiary. I always considered myself to be what you would call hard I guess. Seeing those little hungry babies has me sitting here crying uncontrollably.
It absolutely shattered me as well.. I’m not ignorant to the suffering in the world but seeing it like that, seeing the nurse cry because she’s helpless to save them.. as a mother of 4 all I want to do is scoop them into my arms but even that couldn’t save them.. So many of us will never experience having absolutely nothing, even in poverty, most of us have a way to save our children and at least provide them the necessities such as nourishment. I just can’t imagine what it takes to survive watching everything around you whither. Soul crushing…
If you guys would like to help , please donate to a reputable Afghan charity
there you go, brother, there you go
It’s fucked how is this happening in this day and age😞 all these innocent kids I feel sorry for them. Just makes you think about everything
You're good, dude. I can't take it. I was in the country in 04 and 05 and ive seen pretty hardening things as you have in the pen and seeing these kids and north korean kids tears me apart. I actually have an old International Harvester truck im fixing up and the past 2 years I've been keeping track of UNICEF and the therapeutic feeding operations and dream of selling everything else and taking that heavy duty truck over to get the nutrition paste to rural areas. I hate these talib fucks but i'll deal with them to help those kids.
This is the journalism I wish came back to mainstream, no punches pulled, incredible work Vice
Don’t get excited, Vice rarely ever does real journalism. They typical make an video essay based on the work of others real journalism.
Nah, these guys are typically full of crap on par with MSM legacy companies.
This is mainstream.
America and the West should be ashamed to themselves forever! They have destroyed Afghanistan for 20+ years and at the end, they left and dropped it “like a hot potato”. Hope the future generations learn from this tragedy and to never trust the evil politicians!
@@Mohammad-ll2is, sure! The West invaded and destroyed the greatest society of all. But luckily, the Taliban are back now to make Afghanistan great again, as seen in the video.
Doctor says she is 24 and she has never seen a girl happy 😢😢 Heartbreaking💔💔💔
This journalist is awesome! She is brave and is not backing down from these guys. Great documentary!
The nurse in the end literally choked me, I’m so so sorry no one should go through this. 💔
Me too, that literally shocked me. Thanks VICE for this great documentation!
From the video's start, I tried to hold back tears, as I become intensely emotional watching and reading about our world today, but when I saw the children and heard the mothers and doctors, I couldn't stop the tears. Everything happening in America and the world, because we've a government more interested in pettiness, greed and the wishes of their rich, horrific donors, has all become unbearable. To think this is being done in my name, yours and all Americans against such barbarity, America's leaders, the rich who control them, and President Biden who promised to save America's soul, has instead totally lost it. Worse, they've all lost their humanity, compassion and right to be called human. They might as well have burned the Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and all international treaties and promises. America's actions cries of "freedom" strikingly shows that the once precious foundational documents and our founding fathers' struggle and blood mean nothing to them. I'm truly heartbroken.

The reporter is an absolute gem of a human. As an Afghan Australian, this was heartbreaking to watch. My parents left Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation, but they always tell me of the good life they had in Kabul before the communist take over, and now to see how Afghanistan is now is truly sad.
I have heard how great it was before Soviet rule as well from Afghans who now live in California. They said it was Beautiful and a fun place.
@@macck4350 most Afghans will probably agree that Zahir Shahs and Daud Khan's time was probably the golden age of modern Afghan history. Not that it didn't have a lot of issues, especially in the country side. However the urban areas, especially Kabul had a relatively high standard of living.

You could see the hatred when he was questioned.
She knew that she could leave the country.
They already were given the questions ahead of the interview. In other languages, direct answers and questions make sense, specifically when translating.
man that took some huge guts. you could see a glimmer of hatred in the guys eyes too. scary.
Very surprised at vice having a reporter do this and ask such direct questions. Well done vice.
That teacher is such a strong woman. The way that she continued to smile in front of the kids, while crying about the situation that they are in, just shows her care for these children. She risks her own life to come to school and teach them, and she is such a kind lady. I hope they best for her and I hope that all of her students grow up to be strong powerful women just like her.
Sahih Bukhari (72:715) explains historically how deep the roots of this abuse of women run in the prophet's world.

Yeah that one broke me for sure…
ikr I couldn't agree more as a Muslim this seems so sad to me because this isn't how Islam works this is literal stupidity women deserve freedom too and on the Quran it doesn't say women don't deserve rights. They are just brainwashing people like that and no one is doing anything to stop them too which is probably the worst thing there should be an option to prevent this without actually hurting civilians lives I really wish them good luck I hope they can live in a better place
