鈥As an Afghan woman who grew up under the extreme oppression of the first Taliban regime, I was horrified to see the scenes unfolding in Kabul and throughout Afghanistan this week. The withdrawal of U.S. and NATO troops from the country have left many Afghan nationals struggling for survival and fearing for their basic human rights. This is especially true for our women and girls who will no longer have the opportunity to go to school and who will suffer immensely under Taliban rule. Western and other nations must step forward to assist the Afghan people, those trying to flee and, most importantly, those who cannot.鈥
