No Christian majority nation on earth is like this.
And I like how they claim the women themselves organized the counter protest, yet armed Taliban fighters won't allow anyone to talk with them, reporters are held back, and no one can contact them on social media.
It makes it questionable whether they are willing participants.

No, it was the twin towers attacks, and a manifesto later released.

Are we just going to ignore how big of an event 9/11 was, or ignore current events with the Taliban?
If you want to fight terrorism, one method is shutting down safe harbors. And yes, this could mean military pressure on countries that give them safe harbor.
That was what Bush intended from the start, to flush out terrorist networks by taking out their allies.
Call it extreme or unjustified, but they did succeed in a horrific attack against a major power, and for all we knew there were many more coming. And countries like Iraq certainly would have been a threat with arms, and could have attacked.
Blame the terrorists for stirring up the hornets nest.

Again you're trying to show Christians to be superior. Do you really think the Lord's Resistance Army are better than the Taliban? Also I'm not aware of a Christian nation that's been bombed and war torn as much as Afghanistan has.
As for the Burqa's, yes that's a part of muslim culture that isn't in Christianity. Although you'd be hard pressed to find evidence that the full Burqa is orthodox Islam. Most practising muslim women tend to wear either Hijab, or Hijab with a face veil. Hijab on it's own isn't really very different to how Nun's dress or even how Orthodox Jewish women are supposed to cover their hair.
What part of US imperialism justified planes flown into a building full of innocent civilians?

It's weird how leftists claim to be in favor of women's rights but then ignore or downplay the way women are treated in muslim nations.
Crazy man-hating sjw feminists here have no idea how good they have it in this country compared to most middle eastern nations. They think they are soooo "oppressed" here; they should go live in Saudi Arabia, Iran, or Afghanistan for a while and see how much they like it.
Give it a week at most and they'll be longing for the type of "oppression" they had in the US.

Yeah, they did succeed but I still believe Bush played a part in allowing it to happen and I don't think those planes is ultimately what brought down the towers. It was probably controlled demolition charges from within. Hence, it was an inside job.
The planes were just a cover for what the real perpetrators did. No plane hit building 7 and yet it fell as well. Why? How? Certain media announced the fall of building 7 BEFORE it actually fell. Try explaining that one.
Of course I am not downplaying the actual islamic terrorists part in all if it. They still hijacked planes and crashed them into buildings killing no telling how many people in the crash and from fires that started inside building afterwards but the majority of deaths came from the buildings falling. Lot of people were also jumping out of windows falling to their deaths because they preferred it to burning alive.
The 9/11 attacks were used as a convenient excuse for government to trample all over many of our rights and spy on us when the Patriot Act was passed shortly afterward. Oh, and of course it also gave us justification for more wars in the middle east for the past twenty years which made military industrial complex very happy.

Building 7 was heavily damaged by the destruction of the twin towers. As for the reports, I’m not sure, I’m convinced 9/11 was provoked and allowed by the USA.

The reasons given by writers on Wikipedia suggest support for Israel and troops in Saudi Arabia are reasons.
Those are pretty terrible reasons if representative. Trade embargo's, military presences (After major incidents that necessitated controlling air space), and simply being allies with a nation and people you don't like are not good reasons to slaughter civilians.

9/11 was a Muslim Terrorist attack, and in retaliation, the U.S. (and allies) invaded a country (Afghanistan) and killed over a million people when they had nothing to with it.
The Afghans have every right to be pissed.
