Starving Afghanistan drug addicts resort to cannibalism in Taliban-run rehab centres
Homeless Afghan drug addicts have been forcefully taken by the Taliban to overrun treatment centres, where they are subjected to horrific conditions.
Witnesses have described the centres as reminiscent of concentration camps, where patients are crammed in three to a bed with little or no food.
They’ve been forced to eat grass and cats, reports say – and some have even turned to human flesh to ward off the hunger pains.
…soooooooo Jacinda isn’t worse than the fucking Taliban?
To pretend that an MIQ process is comparable to cannibalism in prisons is mentally ill.
How the fuck is this petty MIQ issue eclipsing the fact that we’ve supported sanctions on Afghanistan that are seeing 23million starve – remember there’re 40 million of them, that’s over half are starving.
They are predicting over a million dead kids starving to death from famine.
A famine we’ve induced!
A famine we imposed upon a country we almost occupied for 2 decades!
A famine that hasn’t even been mentioned by the NZ mainstream media because they are all too busy chasing the low hanging fruit of identity politics by platforming a grandstanding you-go-girl feminist hero…
REP. PRAMILA JAYAPAL FORCED VOTE ON BIDEN’S STRANGLING OF AFGHAN ECONOMY
CONGRESSIONAL PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS Chair Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., secured a vote Thursday on President Joe Biden’s refusal to release to the Afghan central bank $9.4 billion of its own foreign reserves. It marked the first-ever vote on the White House’s lethal policy of asset denial that’s causing the displacement, starvation, and death of millions of Afghans.
The US economic war on Afghanistan amounts to a humanitarian crime
Washington and the west are inflicting brutal collective punishment on an already destitute people by freezing assets and aid
The war in Afghanistan did not end when US and UK troops left Kabul airport last year; it merely took a different, but still lethal, form.
The response of President Joe Biden to the military humiliation inflicted on America by the Taliban has been a scorched-earth policy designed to cause the maximum amount of economic damage to what was already one of the world’s poorest countries.
Prosecuting this war by other means involved freezing Afghan state assets held in New York. It meant the threat of sanctions against banks and other foreign companies doing business in Afghanistan. It has involved halting payments from the World Bank’s Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (ARTF). It meant no emergency Covid-19 financial help from the International Monetary Fund.
…isn’t it incredible that all the woke identity politics journalists in NZ could jump up and down about a pregnant journalist comparing Jacinda to the Taliban but none of them can seem to write about the starvation punishment we are putting on Afghanistan for having the audacity to kick us out from occupying their country?
This entire fiasco is a reminder that there is no power on earth that can compete with white middle class feminism. It’s so powerful it can eclipse 23 million starving people.

And thats a GOOD thing !
Ms Bellis will be pissed her heartstring tugging jihad against Jacinda has seen both Labour and Jacinda up in the latest poll.
But why, for Christ sake, did the NZ Government not have fast access for pregnant NZ Citizens into the MIQ?
They (NZ Government) have special categories for MPs, and National/International sports players to gain fast access into the MIQ
because MPs, Djs, Lorde and the likes are important to our Government, gestating uteruses are something of no importance. Woman is now a term that applies to Men who have lady feels and lady dicks.
Ummm…pretty sure they did have emergency MIQ on offer Nathan Kerr.
To quote Ms Bellis in her letter to Granny Herald….
“There was no way home other than to apply for emergency MIQ spots”…
I have read elsewhere Emergency MIQ places require you to travel within 14 days.
Our hero then elaborates…
“On Monday, 24 January, we woke up to an email. We were rejected.
Firstly, because our travel dates were more than 14 days out – something we did purposefully because flights are difficult to get out of Kabul and to give us time to appeal if we were rejected.”
…..Ummm….OK Karen… so you applied to Emergency MIQ knowing full well your application would be rejected because you purposefully filled it out with information that did not meet the criteria, in order to ensure that you would have time to appeal that rejection once you got it!??!
No…this wasn’t a media beat up all!
Nathan Kerr. Fast access for pregnant ? Way back, getting pregnant was a way for Pacifica women to come here and get citizenship by having their children born in New Zealand. Something like that, and so much so that in the 1970’s politicians proposed pregnancy tests at the border for single ( I think) Pacifica women, and this was rejected by human rights people. So there is precedent for political pregnancies, and this mightn’t be the best reason to be bringing another baby into the world. Gender activists could also see it as an act of discrimination favouring real women over everybody else.
that’s easy you just ‘identify’ as a ‘pregnant person’ job done…
Don’t upset Jacinda the God, the misogynists who hate only human women will get angry and form a lynch mob.
They are both shithouse – MIQ and Bellis. For me it’s not not an either or argument. Placing her as a right wing troll is also unusual when viewing her historical viewpoints and narratives.
MIQ to NZ’s leftwing what BLM is to America’s left a quasi sacred totem.
Bellis has disgracefully insulted and heaped scorn on the families of the 10 NZ soldiers killed by the Taliban and the thousands of NZ and other allied soldiers who lost their lives or served overseas. Why didnt she get sponsored into the UK by morgan, whooten, shcofield and the other tory irrelevant nobodies. The granny herald is ready to sign her up or Natz lining her up for the dirty politics brigade.
Nikorima “ Why didn’t she get sponsored into the UK…” Apparently Bellis had a public relations person in New Zealand advising her, and an apparently Mexican lawyer who wrote the open letter for everybody to read about her, and this way of doing things seems to have produced the desired result. As she’d worked and lived overseas for years, she may not have had a local MP’ to represent her as a New Zealand-based reporter would have had. I don’t see that NZDF personnel who served in Afghanistan have been in any way diminished by her, just the Taliban elevated, and the Prime Minister trashed, but baby hopefully will be fine.
why am I not surprised you chose that particular comparison franky boy?
I’m perpetually amused that those on the left that classify themselves as atheist have a almost religious zeal about certain things in covid such as MIQ, mask wearing and mandates to the point they don’t want to hear alternative thought
Enjoy your petty amusement, Frank – just stop boring us with it.
Some real alternative thought that isn’t just your unoriginal, recycled right-wing rubbish would be a nice change.
it’s still a telling comparison franky boy..
Simmer down Martyn
You are comparing apples and pears.
The comparison was related to the issue of access to the country.
Ra Henare. The issue was manipulated into being who provides a safe haven for pregnant women, and this is exactly how the media globally played it out, with the New Zealand PM personally blamed and vilified for Charlotte’s dilemma.
and caving in like souffle only confirmed that impression, a hard line ‘fuck off’ would have looked decisive to the world..but yet again she conforms to type and folds for priviledge ….it’s actually getting pretty embarrassing for NZ to be seen as such a weak kneed land.
gagarin. This issue wasn’t about world optics, even if Charlotte or her advisors manoeuvred it that way – bottom line is that baby’s best interests are now being served, thanks to it’s mother’s government. I doubt the world is disclaiming some mythological weak-kneed land : a few tabloid journos may be irked that the story’s kaput now, that’s all.
Nonsense Gagarin. And you’re not exactly the ‘knight in shining armour ‘ type yourself. What sort of person would jeopardy the well-being of a baby? You ?
I rather think you ‘ll be hearing lots more about Charlotte, so stock up on Bovril.
Explaining is losing. You should know this by now Martyn.
Quite right Andrew, Charlotte has gone to extreme lengths to explain.
Ah but Charlotte is special and needs the system to change to suit her “needs”.
PMan Andrew Bert Gagarin Jase etc etc. Time for all you males to stop behaving like loud-mouthed jerks. Your combined hubris is astonishing considering that you have never been pregnant yourselves, and is typical National Party ignoramus misogyny. Suddenly I am seeing why the good lord organised things so that men are not the child bearers – you’re too easily distracted, lack focus, and often sound drunk.
I for one totally support her right to get pregnant to the Taliban.
Jase. Not funny. Grow up.
I didn’t get published and not sure why but believe what’s happening in Afghanistan is a different situation to our MIQ. It doesn’t matter what we think of Bellis but she has a right to come home and she has a right to draw attention to the shambles that is our MIQ. Yes our government should offer more help considering we played a part in Afghanistan.
NV she had a right to come home but not the right to assume she could jump the queue.
You’re missing the point. She was drawing attention to the MIQ situation. She didn’t know whether she would change the government’s mind or not. The fact that she did is a bonus for her. The government didn’t have to buckle under pressure but it did. More power to her. David against Goliath. The NZ government buckled under pressure from the media, the public and it’s own guilt.
New view. A pregnant woman allegedly with pr and legal representation, which many would-be queue manipulators simply don’t have, seemingly purporting to be a victim, and with the birth of a wee baby on the horizon, left government with very little choice ; they averted a distracting and concerning public melodrama being played out when other big things are happening, and theoretically they have provided Charlotte’s baby with a better birthing opportunity than the Taliban may have. End of.
Woke are not interested in human rights. Woke are the same as the right wingers in terms of policy and what they jump up and down on.
Most of the world wide anti vax and protests are funded and organised by the right wingers and foreign governments like Russia and China who want to destroy democracy – that is what they are buying into.
So anybody who went woop, wood for Charlotte, you are supporting your own demise in most cases.
Take a pick on what it will be, Covid? destruction of democracy? destruction of human rights? eradication of international cooperation so despots can take over?
