A time of war, a time of peace
30th July 2010
This Time cover has led to much consternation on the internet. Most of the outrage isn’t over the image but, rather, the headline. Still, the image itself is shocking. It depicts Aisha, an 18-year-old Afghan woman who was sentenced by the Taliban to have her nose and ears cut off after she fled her abusive in-laws.
A potent reminder of what sort of people our enemies are. ISLAM IS AN OPPRESSIVE TOTALITARIAN IDEOLOGY WITH WHICH NO CO-EXISTENCE IS POSSIBLE. Remember that every day of your life, or you (and your family) will wind up like Aisha.
