Is a true disservice to the majority of Muslims.
The Talibans treatment of women deserves all the vitriol it gets.
Comparing religious extremists like the GOP and the Talaban is not an insult to anyone but the religious extremists.
I am surprised someone would come here and defend the Talaban

And let's not even look at how both groups deal with homosexuality.
