Like a Bad Reality TV Show of Dysfunctional Families


I get the impression that this is supposed to show appalling conditions of a women's prison and women's lack of rights in Afghanistan.

Instead, it seems more like a reality TV show of a biblical era community where if a woman is lucky, she WILL end up in prison where she seems to have a better quality life than if she lived at home with her own family, husband and in-laws.

Seriously, I couldn't help but laugh at their situations and how they dealt with each other in prison as well as their respective families.

The women aren't the only ones who ended up in these 'prisons' which look far more accommodating than their respective homes. The men are also sent sent to prison for these love crimes so I'm not sure why the point is being made that women are treated badly for sexual relations outside of marriage.

I wanted to b**** slap most of them who seem too stupid to take seriously.

For these people, our American troops' lives are at risk in order to save them from themselves? Really? Their mentalities and way of life are stuck in 2000 BC. Leave them there.

This is the ready made excuse that some need to justify to themselves their position that this war on this country and its people is better than pulling out.
