Let's check in on Afghanistan, shall we?

According to reports, a 6-year-old little girl has been forced to become the 3rd wife of a 45-year-old Afghan man.

The disgusting and disturbing photo of the union has been making the rounds on social media:

Thankfully, the local Taliban government, which took power after Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, has intervened. They ruled that Mr. Afghan Pedophile has to wait ...

... until the girl turns 9.

From the above Daily Mail link:

The youngster had allegedly been exchanged by her father for money to a man who already has two wives, it was reported by Amu.tv.

The marriage was allegedly set to take place on Friday in Helmand province but the Taliban stepped in and arrested both men involved.

No charges were brought against them but they have forced the creep to wait until the girl is nine before he can take her home, local media said.

According to advocacy groups, there has been a "25 per cent rise in child marriages in Afghanistan after the Taliban banned girls' education in 2021. They also said there has been a 45 per cent increase in childbearing across the country."

(Thanks, Joe Biden!)

The case recalls a similar one from the year the Taliban took power in Afghanistan. Nine-year-old Parwana was sold to a 55-year-old man before being rescued by a US-based charity.

The Taliban gets their guidelines for the "age of consent" from Islamic teaching, modeling after Muhammad's marriage to a 9-year-old child.

And wait until you hear about the routine Afghan practice of "bacha bazi," where boys are forced to dance for men, then sold for sex.

What kind of culture is this?
