Episode 3737: Pregnant Journalist & Taliban : Who's Using Who?

from Renegade Talk Radio · host Renegade Talk Radio

If you watched the Taliban’s first press conference, you will remember New Zealand journalist, Charlotte Bellis. She’s the one who asked the Taliban how they plan to treat women. Ironically, she now finds herself pregnant and ‘stranded' in Afghanistan…or is she? From her media interviews, you would feel sorry for her and angry at New Zealand for their hypocritical and preposterous rules that allegedly weren’t allowing her to return home. But, as we dig deeper, you will see that things aren’t exactly as she would have everyone believe.  First, you will hear the background of who Charlotte is, what she was doing in Afghanistan to begin with, who her boyfriend is, what being pregnant and unmarried has to do with it, and her incredulous story of getting special permission from the Taliban to return to Afghanistan and be protected by them. Then you’ll be driven to ask yourself: if you or a loved one was pregnant, would you rely on the word of the Talibanterrorists to keep you and your baby safe?New Zealand does have unreasonably strict rules that make it overly difficult for their citizens to return home, but they did give Charlotte an opportunity-after she berated them on the world stage. Hear why she turned it down. Then ask yourself, is the Taliban using her for good P.R. to show the world how kind they are to women? Or is Charlotte using them to for attention and to advance her own career? Is anyone thinking about what’s best for the baby? And what about the Afghan women who are left dealing with the harsh realities of how the Taliban treat them? Lastly, hear why I urge Charlotte to go home NOW.
