the anti austerity drive grips the euro spain's in other students lash out at more cuts saying they've been abandoned by the government but a german minister says greece would be better off leaving the euro zone despite securing a new bailout. or following the nine eleven attacks the u.s. began its campaign in afghanistan by the time america's first lady said the campaign would finally give afghan women their freedom but they could later we ask what has changed. we see. many. wives who have been beaten who want to leave their abusive husband there is one story that was the worst story which is
4:32 am
a girl who had been sold off by her family and she was beaten by the older man who she was forced to marry and she tried to escape and they caught her and brought her back and because she had tried to escape she had to be punished her husband then cut off and cut off her nose there isn't a book it's a big example for others. mark how. i'll tell you a story of a young woman i met i find inspiring i'm not going to promise a happy outcome but at least it was an inspiring story she was a young woman who was forced into marriage in a very conservative part of the country in the southeast she was forced into marriage at the age of around thirteen and from somewhere she was getting a lot of abuse in this home and she was very unhappy and she found it in his up to
4:33 am
run away which when you're coming from an area of the country where women are not seen on the streets alone imagine a girl she was now fourteen or fifteen making her way from the southeast of the country all the way to kabul and there she found shelter she was lucky. that she then found that had husband's family rose up against a they called upon a lot of the tribal elders in that area they were furious they felt like she brought shame upon her they got the support of parliament they got the support of the minister of interior is an indication of quite how conservative those views are even in the heart of government and in the end this girl faced the president's office the minister of interior parliamentarians and they said to her you must go home you've brought shame on it's and she said no if you send me back to that village there is not one that will hear my death cries kill me here kill me now i'd rather that than go back to this village so defiance was extraordinary this courage in a girl so young and eventually the government backed down and they let her stay in the safe hands she's getting an education she's much happier now she may someday
4:34 am
soon get a divorce she's been trying for several years to get a separation. and so i can't claim that she's yet happy she's still having to be very much protected because the husband's family frankly still want to kill her or at least take her back and there she might be a real risk but she is trying to forge a life. poorer families can't afford to have. girl children who can't work in the fields so there is. a tremendous economic push to marry your daughter off at a very very young age sometimes as young as ten or whatever where that america's armed forces are very use and growth they need those materials so.
4:35 am
they have to so they're through. i was ten years old to believe parents made nary an afghan men knowing twenty two this man and his family were all enablers she promised my father to be money one of my children's father is my brother and my husband doesn't know it we have in court about. woman she her car children forced. her brother to poor her. to marry me marry me out of money my fifteen barred so to marry my one year small but otherwise he would kill you. how can she. get murder you work or why you hold with a kid this practice called bad which is the use of women and girls as compensation
4:36 am
for crimes so what you sometimes see happening if has been for instance of rape or a mad. they'll be a traditional juggler the council is gathering about this and one of the ways that they can try to result faiths is rather than. punishing the perpetrator of the rape or the murder they'll take a girl from one family the perpetrators family and they'll give that girl usually in marriage to the victim's family. he kind of took on the whole than kill method well you see how difficult it is to obtain justice because you are a woman it hurts you because you know that you can do anything to change the situation if you will and this is because society is in the hands of men and maddow has someone who at this point the concept of justice is still nonexistent in court if you think. it's very hard for women
4:37 am
particularly conservative areas of the country to seek help and sadly if a young girl or a woman goes to the police complaining about something like to master violence or ready for a forced marriage option should be met with a lot of hostility and sometimes she can be ostracized by society that basically thinks the problem should be kept in the home and we also sometimes see women up until recently a woman could be knocked out for having been raped even the woman when they get they go to the gym instead to lessen their wives but then when they did their close in afghanistan or. really where are the rights of women are protected they want to stay there and what are they were managed to run away because a domestic violence they were not about to continue with that. kind of terrible lives. on their way home and then being there as men drafted their husband traffic
4:38 am
and then the way they stopped by. police you know life that but up them are women and they're in turn their back to their village. or they get turned into any women organization before they get to and into the park and at the moment affairs which is a sponsor about that they get up if you they turn their back you go well and they're well it out with a warlord with a powerful. monday. before give them the hand but there has been a flag them on the public plate. and each of them subject to forty five flashing in a public place in front of all relatives. and he kept them were flying. a quest the six thousand dollars that family to pay put there had been probably because. death point of view both of them put shame on the religion and on the family name so they
4:39 am
have to be made to see lose their belly and pay the fine a steady punished by death about. killing the woman that might use it for the war lost like killing a person. we're at a point where the concept of justice is still nonexistent. but there we have jungle law if this constitutional benefit photo was lost they put that practice otherwise they look like a west for same we have a constitutional. freedom of speech event and initial house we didn't have and we don't have freedom of speech element to part of the market see we have our constitution our freedom for press more than four times to be that your analysis inside of the parliament. itself proves that lies. which is sort of any color that were in the beginning of parliament most of these parliamentarians making amnesty
4:40 am
law criminal forgive themselves not because yet you look at once there was a discussion about the sentence of a woman who was to be stoned to death tribute being the shari'ah judge he didn't want to contemplate that the woman could be at least symbolically stoned in the square not being hit but still insulted because he was told that it was still a crime in any case and at a certain point was the response was well should be hit with pebbles then by a lot of. there will be. charitable. for example if women do not obey islamic law and aware strange clothes and go out seducing per young people. especially those who don't have the possibility of getting married. in our opinion this is not the right behavior and no more new theme now we have beautiful laws which appear to be all up to protect women's rights so. they're there for them and push up those laws are in
4:41 am
the hands of the world large. think that there was a shot of the power so we need to change our mentality we need to change their point of view is the art form a strike but still. not. i wish to the. rights was the constitution of our group has done is given for them because so we do not will fly in afghanistan has been that laws but human to properly we have a lot of warlords walcot him and else we have organized criminals we have a lot of illegal groups they are the main causes influences all of our views in that woman right in afghanistan.
4:42 am
4:43 am
study or to go into offices. yet here's what islam does prevent some things for women only women cannot see. in the middle of an assembly of men. furthermore women are obliged to wear the huge job. if they cover themselves there aren't any problems. lastly women are not allowed to become judges on. the religion of islam doesn't allow women to undertake a role in which you have to give our judgments.
4:44 am
these laws are respected so there aren't any problems. we need to teach the community that they're right struggling but that today i mean i think. that's. what. most in afghanistan the majority of women married below the age of sixteen. they don't have the right to divorce they have the right to what's called a separation it's really hard for them to get where is a man just needs to say divorce three times and that's it he said to his wife. before now afghan women asking for divorce was never even heard of. i don't want to
4:45 am
. know in days the women come to us to ask us to resolve marital issues. sometimes we succeed sometimes we do not. point a couple gets divorced but we don't want anything to do with those women for women it's a long hard struggle to get a separation and one of the major us. she finds is that she doesn't necessarily get access to her children this is to become and up to police are. being asked some information about new patients that arrived to these people. around forty percent each burnt area and two to five years but you have suspected for self-immolation and just the right. percentage or the name or the comment required.
4:46 am
4:47 am
yes it's unclear how many of these cases might actually have been killings or attacks by men that are dressed up as it were suicide it's this very rarely investigations certainly rarely criminal investigations after these cases take place the men problem in afghanistan. because of the economy conditions. of some people. to. come. between war and some. of the other problems there. on the border. so you will hear people in the obama administration talking about how much they care about the women of afghanistan it's not true they don't care about the women of
4:48 am
afghanistan they open office is it would have can see it isn't spend lots of money to learn the media think of the literally billions of dollars that have been spent by the us in that country over a fifty billion dollars in economic aid has been spent on the reconstruction of the economic infrastructure and social fabric in afghanistan itself there are sixty countries from the international community who manage them with. my skin is where is all this money go and where has all of the help that was supposed to be going to women but the real problem is that no one thousand afghan provinces in order to improve women situation there very often money returns to external advisory me. to external freeway. it's always coming from abroad that are very very small. the total u.s.
4:49 am
money for afghanistan is going to the women to do this you have to add also the rule of international cooperation and i'm sure there is a study by oxfam from about two years ago that said that all of the money meant for reconstruction forty percent of it returns to sender through the expenses for a person i would prefer that. when i looked and there and most of the money ends up in the pockets of those who sent the money in the first place. this is upsetting for us because this money comes from people who live in foreign countries money that these people have worked hard to earn and they have given money to their governments with the aim of helping poor countries. capacity building would be built for the local population like the one the pangea foundation built for its women who then ran the project rather than forgot about it i think our lady of its shows that that money spent and chart camps project. design out of
4:50 am
the country copy and paste it to the country with no sustainability no impact as much as we would expect it they have to be careful about the afghans that they support. you know are they afghans that really have the ability to be social changes or are they highly westernized elites who merely world of n.g.o.s welcome the world thank you for example there was a basher doest who was the minister of planning during the first karzai administration that really got a guy. and then she became a member of parliament didn't talk about it i mean that it down and a man who was much loved by the afghan population would have been a pita as planning minister she conducted her sons as of the local nongovernmental organizations that had risen up in afghanistan since two thousand and one. opinion a lot of the twenty eight hundred nongovernmental organizations including the
4:51 am
census. commanders the removal of one thousand nine hundred of them to president karzai. so the muffy of cooperation is a tangible problem in afghanistan and you know and i think there aren't any control mechanisms for how money is invested inside the country you can buy in your home is that i want them to understand how the money that they give to their governments is used the level are very well money that they expect to be used in the right way without the ship or ship can't literally money it arrives and then passes through the government manages the reconstruction work. and the work of the local nongovernmental organizations so it is clear that if the majority of the government is made up of the corrupted wool or it's where the money will end up in their pockets on their little about the international community has encouraged the corruption that affect our country today. hard to believe.
4:52 am
that after spending you know. hundred billion dollars in afghanistan. afghanistan is the warst and the award for the rights of the children afghanistan is. the second country from the down put there for the power to afghanistan is the highest. and the award of maternal mortality that each fifteen minutes one woman dies from in my turn maternity because of lack of access to the clinic what a lot of money has arrived in afghanistan to improve the situation of women but i don't think it has brought many improvements have expectation that to be respected . as a woman has a human i'm not cussing that has
