The Sunni/Shi’te jihad has killed far more people than the trumped-up propaganda term “Islamophobia.” Yet no one seems particularly concerned about it as a human rights issue. Perhaps too much concern about it would in itself be “Islamophobic.”
“Over 800 Hazara Families Ordered Out Of Their Homes By Taliban,” Agence France-Presse, September 24, 2021 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Kabul: Residents of a Hazara-dominated farming community in central Afghanistan say they have been ordered out of their homes by Taliban doing the bidding of Pashtun landlords who want to seize their crops and stores.
Mohammad Mohaqeq, a Hazara political leader exiled since the Taliban takeover last month, raised the alarm earlier this week in a letter published on social media.
He said more than 800 families had been ordered out of their homes in a remote district straddling the provinces of Daykundi and Uruzgan, southwest of Kabul.
Locals contacted by AFP have confirmed the report, and pleaded with authorities to help them.
The Hazaras are a mostly Shiite ethnic minority that has for centuries been persecuted in Sunni majority Afghanistan. In the last two decades they have been targeted in particular by the Taliban and ISIS, who consider them heretics.
One local elder told AFP that Taliban fighters in pick-up trucks descended on Gizab district and ordered people out, saying they were living there illegally….
Exiled Hazara leader Mohaqeq shared a letter signed by Aminullah Zubair, the Taliban’s new Daykundi provincial governor, saying the land belonged to an elder named Haji Zaher.
It said those who disputed this should go to court.
Mohaqeq said the Taliban eviction order was effectively a verdict without a trial.
Local villagers say the root of the issue is an attempt by powerful landlords to deprive them of their homes and crops….

I wonder what those ”crops” are?

Could be anything–I doubt this is all poppies.
roberta says
Muslims lie so much it is impossible to know the truth of any matter, but, if they are indeed squatting on this farm land, no one should mind if they burn the homes and crops on their way out.
Not that I care either way.

By “squatting” they likely mean that no non-Sunni has the right to freely live in Afghanistan.
Shi’ites also persecute Sunnis in places like Iran, Iraq, and Yemen–wherever they are in power.

Shi’ite-o-phobia = the irrational hatred directed by the Taliban Deobandi sect against Shi’ites.
The Western Leftists give their silent approval for the Taliban to persecute Shi’ites.
It apparently isn’t genocide when MUSLIMS do it. Genocide coming from Islamic terrorists may not be criticized in the view of present-day Leftists and BIDEN-ITES.
The BIDEN-ITES are only interested in power … not in human rights.
Let the persecuted victims eat cake.
mortimer says
The Taliban are gangs of lawless thugs who make up the law opportunistically for themselves in mind and to hell with ‘the others’.
The Taliban are no more than a lynch mob with advanced American weapons thanks to the Bribed-man.

It is not up to us, Christians and Jews, to decide how muslims live- but it is up to us to ensure that muslims do not migrate to our homelands and bring their customs, values and behaviors and religion with them

Pointing out how Muslims even treat other Muslims is certainly something we have the right to do.

Afghanistan: Taliban order 800 Shi’ite Hazara families out of their homes
……………..
The Sunni Taliban persecuted the Shia Hazara last time they were in power, and in places they had recaptured in the interim.
There is no “Taliban 2.0”.
