This happened last month, but no major media in the US seem to have covered it.

What a bunch of evil *****.

An Afghan human rights body has condemned the new “Criminal Procedure Code” issued by Taliban-ruled Afghanistan, saying it legitimises discrimination and abuse. The code categorises citizens into four classes, explicitly recognises slavery (termed “ghulami” or “ghulam”) as a legal status, and grants mullahs and clerics immunity from criminal prosecution.

Punishments for the same offence in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan will now vary based on the offender's class, Rawadari, the human rights body said.

According to Article 9 of the new code, the top spot among the four classes will be occupied by the religious scholars or mullahs. If the mullahs commit any crime, they would just be advised, while those at the bottom of the social class would be subjected to imprisonment and corporal punishment, it pointed out.

Taliban OKs Slavery, Domestic Violence in Updated Criminal Code​

19 Feb 2026 ~~ By Frances Martel

Taliban “supreme leader” Hibatullah Akhundzada recently approved a novel criminal code, multiple outlets reported this week, that dramatically expands the legal ability for men to physically abuse women and children and provides for the creation of a formal “slave” class in the country.
The Taliban is a radical Islamist terror organization that currently operates as the uncontested government of Afghanistan. The Taliban returned to power on August 15, 2021, following former President Joe Biden’s decision to extend the 20-year-old Afghan War beyond the deadline of May 15 of that year that President Donald Trump had previously agreed to. The Taliban’s return to power prompted a chaotic mass exodus of Afghans fleeing the nation’s persecution and the imposition of restrictive sharia policies that have stripped Afghan women and girls of nearly all their rights as citizens.
According to the Times of India, the latest affront to human rights from the Taliban is the publication of a 90-page criminal code, issued as an edict recently, likely in late January. No evidence suggests any public participation in the drafting of the code or legislative debate by certified lawmakers prior to its imposition.

Human rights activists, long advocating for more international interest in stopping the rampant abuses in Afghanistan, were quick to condemn the latest penal directives from the Taliban.
“This is not just discrimination,” an unnamed human rights activist told the Asian news and commentary outlet The Diplomat. “It is a legal strategy to control society by separating people into groups that can be treated differently.”
The Diplomat noted the sudden announcement of the code without a “public announcement, national debate, or open process,” highlighting the use of “slave” categories for certain Afghans as “especially troubling.”
“Punishments depend on a person’s status, which creates inequality and removes the idea of equal protection,” it explains. “As a result, poor and marginalized people can face harsh penalties, while those with power often avoid serious consequences… Several articles use the word ‘slave’ many times, and the code separates ‘free’ people from ‘slaves’ in legal terms.”

is very bad to see women in some areas, and our scholars also agree that women’s faces should be hidden,” Ministry of Vice and Virtue spokesman Molvi Mohammad Sadiq Akif scolded in 2023. “It’s not that her face will be harmed or damaged. A woman has her own value and that value decreases by men looking at her.”
The Taliban has also outlawed education for girls and women. As of August, the United Nations estimates that 1.4 million girls have been deprived of a secondary education in the country since 2021.


Commentary:
Wow! I had no idea Afghanistan was a Democrat Blue State.
Welcome to Islam!
If you reject the Muslims’ invite to join their club, wink wink Islam, result will be losing your head or becoming a slave to them.
Not to worry. BLM will be demanding reparation’s and protesting this immediately.
Undoubtedly, this should earn them a seat on the UN Human Rights Commission along with Iran.
For all those bitter Western feminists who really believe they are miserably treated in America or Europe, I recommend a fortnight in Kabul under Taliban rule.

BTW... Groups referred to as the "Taliban" are currently driving a significant surge in violence and regional instability in Pakistan. This primarily involves the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), or "Pakistani Taliban," which has escalated its insurgency since the Afghan Taliban returned to power in 2021.
While the Pakistani Taliban (TTP) is a separate group that has targeted Pakistan, they share strong operational links with the Afghan Taliban, whose victory was welcomed by Pakistani leadership and especially ISI, Pakistan's CIA.
They've created their own "Frankenstein" monster.

Moderate Taliban Urge Beating Women Without Breaking Bones​

Mohammed was the original feminist.

20 Feb 2026 ~~ By Daniel Greenfield

The moderate Islamic terrorist state of Talibanastan (they must be moderate, after all we did a deal with them and we’re still negotiating with them) has explained that in its moderate approach to Islamic law, beating women is encouraged, but they draw the line at breaking bones.
Truly, Islamists in America have told us that Mohammed was the original feminist.
The Taliban has passed a law that allows men to beat their wives as long as it does not cause “broken bones or open wounds”.
The Telegraph obtained the 60-page penal code – signed by Hibatullah Akhundzada, the Taliban supreme leader, and distributed to courts across Afghanistan – which classifies spousal beatings as “ta’zir” – discretionary punishment – rather than a criminal act.
A husband may strike his wife and children freely, provided the violence does not leave visible bone fractures or open wounds.
Even where serious injury can be proven, the maximum sentence is 15 days in prison
This is Islam. Every last part of it grounded in the Koran, in the crimes of Mohammed and in Sharia Islamic law.
The Taliban aren’t doing anything extraordinary here. They’re just dropping the pretense maintained by some.
Since Islam is moderate, then beating women is moderate too. We can only condemn the extremists who beat women so hard that they break bones.
~Snip~
When we mainstream evil, it’s just a matter of sliding relativism scales. First it’s beating women, then it’s breaking their bones and then cutting their throats will prove to be moderate. Just as we went from negotiating with the PLO to negotiating with Hamas, to negotiating with the Taliban and Al Qaeda, we’ll negotiate with ISIS too. Once you get into bed with evil, there’s no bottom. It’s an endless fall down.
~Snip~
Apart from the legalized rape, beatings, and hijabs, Mohammed really did a lot for women. And his followers are doing a lot for women today.

Commentary:
When I originally read the Lede, and I thought it was the Babylon Bee.
Sad it isn’t.
It's no wonder there haven't been lots of conversions to Islam. Except under force when conquered.
Islam means turning back the clock to the days of the time they still behaved like backwards tyrants.
DSA Marxist Socialists are Leftists are okay with this as many of them have no clue about how even to talk to the opposite sex, often preferring their own sex.
So much for NARA and NOW...
