@AbdullahAzada It is so shameful to call yourself a member of the Civil Society yet act against the core values of civility and humanity.
Such a hypocrisy!

[Haroon Mutasem @MutasemHaroon]

Taliban say nothing but the truth!
Long ago, they closed all the male religious madrasas when they realized that the level of sexual exploitation was very high there.
(Responding to the baseless allegations and ignoring the proven)
Such a hypocrisy!

همزمان بااعلام خروج نظامیان خارجی، داکترعبدالله به این خبرنگارسلام گفت وافزودکه در همان زمان پرسش درست مطرح کرده بود؛اما پیش از وقت

اکنون اسماعیل مشعل سلام آقای عبدالله را علیک گفته وتاکیدکرده که ۹ سوال اش را در آن زمان پاسخ نداده، در حالیکه تمام سوال هایش به حقیقت پیوسته است
