A lot to learn from the women of Afghanistan

The women of Afghanistan have a lot to teach us about resistance. Statement from October 8, 2008:
"RAWA strongly believes that there should be no expectation of either the US or any other country to present us with democracy, peace and prosperity. Our freedom is only achievable at the hands of our people. It is the duty of all the intellectuals,all the democratic forces and progressive and independence-seeking people to rise in a constant and decisive struggle for independence and democracy by taking the support of our wounded people as the independent force, against the presence of the US and its allies and the domination of Jehadi and Taliban criminals."
The Afghan women have been fighting against war, occupation and misogyny for decades and will keep doing so with or without the presence of foreign soldiers.
