       Is it true that Sayed Zekrullah Hashimi, a Taliban spokesperson,
       spoke like this?

       government on Tuesday.
       >
       > Women can't be ministers, they should give birth, a Taliban
       spokesperson has said in an interview, reinforcing the
       perception that the hardline group's claims of a new improved
       version since its brutal rule in Afghanistan in the 1990s are
       false.
       > The comments by Taliban spokesperson Sayed Zekrullah Hashimi
       to TOLO News on the new Afghan government missing women
       ministers, have been widely shared on social media.
       >
       > "A woman can't be a minister, it is like you put something on
       her neck that she can't carry. It is not necessary for women to
       be in the cabinet - they should give birth. Women protesters
       can't represent all women in Afghanistan," Hashimi told TOLO
       news.
       >
       > The interviewer countered: "Women are half of the society."
       >
       > Hashimi replied: "But we do not consider them half. What kind
       of half? The half itself is misdefined here. The half means here
       that you keep them in the cabinet and nothing more. And if you
       violate her rights, not an issue. Over the last 20 years,
       whatever was said by this media, the US, and its puppet
       government in Afghanistan, was it anything but prostitution in
       offices?"
       >
       > You can't accuse all women of prostitution, the interviewer
       interjected.
       >
       > "I do not mean all Afghan women. The four women protesting in
       the streets, they do not represent the women of Afghanistan. The
       women of Afghanistan are those who give birth to the people of
       Afghanistan, educates them on Islamic ethics," said the
       spokesperson.

       Hashimi should reconsider his position:

       It's not. Infact, women were allowed to protest for their rights
       by the Taliban, which happened just a few days ago.

       > Women's rights activists in the country were entirely
       unimpressed, meanwhile, dismissing the new proclamation issued
       on Friday as Taliban posturing intended for the international
       community, not Afghan women.

       They should be impressed! The Taliban is doing a better job than
       is Iran and Russia (two of America's worst enemies). Why doesn't
       America and China use the Taliban against Iran and Russia?

       > On Thursday, a group of women protested before the office of
       the United Nations in Kabul. It is reported here that this was
       the first peaceful demonstration conducted by women without any
       interference of the Taliban. This demonstration was against the
       current state of women’s affairs and the spread of poverty
       throughout the country. Women asked for food, work, freedom, and
       political participation in the country. They urged the
       international community not to abandon Afghan women and to
       support the Afghan people, to recognize the diversity and
       presence of all political groups within the framework of
       socio-political participation, and not keep silent about the
       current crisis in Afghanistan.
