With all the extensive research that I've done on Islam, I am grieved over the ill treatment that Muslim women receive from their males. But, I find it mind-boggling when some of the abuse directed at these women comes from other women. How can that be? I guess it is similar to cases we hear regarding abused people growing up to become abusers themselves.
Read this horrific story coming out of Afghanistan, and imagine the pain the 15-year-old experienced. These people are truly monsters. And to think that we are giving our blood and resources to such people.
From Gateway Pundit:
Afghan Child Bride Beaten and Tortured: “My Mother-in-Law Pulled Out My Nails” (Video)
"Horrible. An Afghan 15 year-old child bride describes being locked and tortured by her husband and in-laws.
Sahar Gul told officials: 'My mother-in-law pulled out my nails.'
Via ROP:
The BBC reported:
'A video given to the BBC shows the extent of the injuries suffered by a 15 year-old Afghan child bride who was locked up and tortured by her husband.
The girl was left starving after being detained by him and his family for several months.
The case came to light this week when police rescued the teenager, Sahar Gul, who had been locked up in the basement of her in-laws’ house.
Police say that she had had her nails and clumps of hair pulled out.
In addition they say she had chunks of flesh cut out with pliers.
Sahar Gul was married off to a 30-year-old man around seven months ago, when she was just 14 years old. Her parents contacted police after not being able to see her for several months.'"

i'm pretty sure we are over there for the VICTIMS in this country... you know, trying to STOP abuse like this from going on.
you make it sound like we are donating our resources to all the fools and monsters of the country.
would you rather just pull out altogether and leave the victims to be tortured and killed? or would you rather DO something about it?
that was the choice we were faced with, and america chose to try and help.
