That article is referencing some 1999 sources and hoping nobody clicks them.
Not seeing any evidence of the claim. The video is irrelevant too. Anyone here got something more credible?
The link to an article from 1999 refers to an entirely different case where a woman was executed during the previous rule of Afganistan by the Taliban. It isnt being used as evidence for this event.
I have severely started doubting western media's claims lately so whenever I read an article making bold claims I like clicking on their sources.
The fact that the video
from Independent is just irrelevant B roll, and several of the claims they make are backed by irrelevant 25 year old articles does not inspire confidence.
If there is evidence or sourcing for those claims it should not be difficult to provide a link to a ruling to back it up.
The allegations sound plausible, but I expect a newspaper to provide real sources in their links. I'm not supposed to have to Google to fact check everything they say.
Unlike russian and chinese media which are very independant and believable /s
Great point. Russian and Chinese newspapers spread propaganda supporting their imperialist interests.
This somehow means that our newspapers don't!
religion sucks ass
You know something, you need to rethink western criminal justice. Think about this, every time someone is locked up for a year, it's costing you the tax payer 40k plus. In the states, you still do executions. There's no moral superiority in that regard. Publicly punishing people does the following... Say a thief/robber etc has a hand chopped, how much does that cost? Not much. It also sends a clear message. That's why you can drop your wallet in Dubai and no one will touch it. You have millions of people locked up in the states...there's no morality in wasting so much in resources that could be better used to end homelessness, poverty etc on this. All you're doing is enriching some corporations.
"look at all the benefits you get from being in a fascist state that doesn't have laws respecting rights to a fair trial and sufficient burden of proof!"
Like there's a reason we only see the taliban + authoritarian regimes do this, lmao.
Troll's gonna troll
issuing correction on previous tweet you don't understand any circumstances gotta hand it to the taliban
Public execution would solve a lot of problems.
What problems would it solve?
Violent authoritarians fantasise about murdering the other. Sick bastards.
like people pretending their government doesn't execute people because they don't see it.
I knew my mayor was acting suspicious last time I saw him
What to do on Saturday night when you don't feel like going to a bar.
People having to come to terms with the policies they support.
If it's "too bad" for the public to see, then maybe it's "too bad" to be doing at all.
I'm pro-death penalty, btw.
Do you trust the government?
Give people a tangible sense of what will happen to them if they murder others.
Public executions used to be common and yet people still murdered. It clearly isn’t a deterrent and worse case you execute an innocent person.
The problem being that it may give them more a tamgible sense of death rather than of consequences.
It seems that murders are committed in scenarios where consideration of the consequences is not even on the radar, instead it's some sudden rage or psychopathy, and I could believe either to be stoked by witnessing execution desensitizing then to violent death.
That doesn't actually happen or stop people from being murderers.
Only a couple of posts above Trump's ally Kirk said children should see executions lmao. These two charmfully synchronized.
They're two sides of the same coin. Y'all Qaeda living up to its name once more.
Special guest star: Charlie Kirk

I'm not sure why you dismiss the Independent but here's the AP reporting the same: https://apnews.com/article/afghanistan-taliban-public-execution-stadium-73a175aef085f26bd6b574465be34c6f
