Nadia, 17, who has been living in Ms. Akrami’s long-term shelter since 2007, recounted that to avenge a dispute he had with her father, her husband cut off her nose and an ear while she was sleeping. She has undergone six operations and needs more, Ms. Akrami said.

The one thing I can do to fight the jihadis, and this is who they are, is to send all my spare change to RAWA.

I hope you will too.

They need new or used digital, three mega pixel minimum, cameras, also. These brave women are the ones who document the abuse of Afghanis by the Taliban, and who took the photograph of the public execution of Zarmina which is the icon here.

That makes me furious.
I'd so kick the shit out of her dad if'n we were face to face. I swear.
He'd feel the point of me boot! Right in his 'nads.
We'll send 'em some money, fast.
