Kamala Harris once more is sent on a “mission.” Worried about Muslim Dearborn voters in particular and Michigan’s electoral votes on the whole, the mission impossible is to thread the needle and keep our growing Muslim voters on the Democrat plantation.

The Biden administration faced backlash Wednesday after announcing that it would develop “the first ever US National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia” in the US amid rising levels of antisemitism. The White House’s focus on combatting Islamophobia comes one day after both the arrest of a 21-year-old self-identified “Hamas fighter” in New York who allegedly threatened to kill and rape Jews at Cornell University and FBI Director Christopher Wray telling senators that antisemitism is reaching “historic levels” in the US following Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

Vice President Harris said in her address:

“For years, Muslims in America and those perceived to be Muslim have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks.

“As a result of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel, and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, we have seen an uptick in anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, Antisemitic, and Islamophobic incidents across America … For so many people in our nation, the past few days and weeks have brought about all too familiar fears. Fears that they will be targeted, profiled, or attacked simply because of who they are, how they worship, or how they look.”

“Here’s the bottom line: In America, no one should be made to fight hate alone. And in this moment, then, let us all clearly say: A harm against any one of us is a harm against all of us,” she added.

No need to cue up the demonstrations going on against Israel here in the U.S. and the world at large, you get it, it has become clear in interviews that the end game of all of this has not been driven home to many Americans. Islam “From the river to the sea“

Kids from here understand none of it at all.

A clear eyed glance toward the Middle East and a short abbreviated history of the last half of last century reveals what woman in particular have in store for them should this Muslim agenda come to fruition.

Ask most people to paint a picture in their mind about Afghanistan and surrounding countries and the images that come to mind likely are toothless goat herders tending their goats and Poppy plants in the mountainous regions.

But many of these countries had “Golden Years” – years when one could barely tell the difference from they and western culture and countries. Fledgling Democracies.

Here is a brief look.

For a refresher, let’s take a look at part of Bunk’s posts in 2021, and partly done in 2009. 

The Forgotten: Afghan Women, Girls; the Forgotten Golden Age of Afghanistan

What about the women and children left behind? Who speaks for them? Afghanistan was once peaceful and democratic. A history when they had a Constitutional Monarchy. A fledgling democracy. That should be part of the kaleidoscope through which we view it

Now the country descends into hell. Where are all the “woke” women’s groups?  

What it was that caused many, to empathize with the barbaric actions of this vile group against women and young girls. Yet women now remain silent for the most part. Let’s review lest we forget. The world is different now with the 24 hour news cycle and internet. We see and can feel. 

While men fret about how America will look leaving the interpreters behind, little if anything is mentioned as to what will happen to the civilians/women and girls left behind. Heard is “We did what we could.” “They are tribal and have been fighting for years.” “Americans are tired of the war.” 

Afghanistan’s Golden Age: The Land Where Women’s Rights Were At Par With Western Nations | NewsMo

Afghanistan of the 50’s and 60’s looked completely unrecognizable! The land where women’s rights were at par with Western nations. Take a look at this video for more-

I went back and looked at my posts starting in 2009 regarding Afghanistan and especially the women and children under Muslim law. Strange looking back, I realize I had become indifferent through the years. After all, what have we heard about this war in the last years?

Here is what I wrote then in 2009:

And so, have we forgotten those images of the woman being murdered in a soccer field in front of thousands? Have we forgotten the oppression of the women? Have we no caring that we would turn back the clock and allow the Taliban once more to abuse them in the most hideous manner? Condemn them to Sharia Law? 

The shock of the first pictures we saw:

Women of Afghanistan

You will have to watch on YouTube. 

I concluded my 2009 post with this and a certain naivete not knowing how the years would unfold.

I hear the men of war, speak of war. Let the women speak of a better time for the women of Afghanistan. Of all of the compelling reasons to sustain this war to victory, let it be the World’s humanity towards these women. They have no voice.  

Conclusion (2021): My ambivalence now. The argument can be made that the country will be turned into a cesspool of wicked terrorists groups that plot and plan against us. After all we cannot help the entire world. But do we have a moral responsibility to remain? There is a generation of young girls who have not experienced Sharia law as dished out by the Taliban thanks to the United States. Having seen the desperation it is a heart breaker. They know what the future holds. But for anyone to say our military was wasted, no. Have we been lied to by our government about numerous aspects? No doubt. What did we do? We planted the seeds of a golden age again for many, that there is another way to live. They lived that way before.  

The total desperation.

I concluded the post with a piece for the New York Times… well worth a look if you can access it.

Remembering Afghanistan’s Golden Age

Weep for the women we left behind. Weep for the coming storm rising.
