It has been one week since the Supreme Court made their historic ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade, making abortion a state issue. During that time, there have been numerous protests, dozens of arrests, and countless video uploading online giving a sea of opinions on the matter. But while many of the videos spread nothing more than outlandish theories and fear porn, CNN International’s Christiane Amanpour recently suggested that the decision made by the Supreme Court could lead to the Taliban losing respect for the United States.
Appearing on “CNN Newsroom” on Thursday, Amanpour explained how the ruling was “really serious” given that it caused America to lose its “ability to hold its head up as a democracy that respects the rights of every constituent. I would also say that as a conclusion, American democracy and the state of American women’s rights are being really looked at, not just by the rest of the West, as these meetings are happening, but by the rest of the world.”
The CNN regular didn’t stop there as she literally admitted, “You think the Taliban are going to actually say, ‘Oh, yeah, we’re going to adhere to what you tell us for recognition based on what, you know, on what we do about women?’ This is really serious, this moment, for American women and for America’s ability to hold its head up as a democracy that respects the rights of every constituent.”
Having covered numerous countries who have attacked women’s rights, Amanpour explained, “[N]ever in the history of women’s rights in America have we seen such a reversal in a developed country. It just hasn’t happened.”
Users online shredded the statement, writing, “Amanpour, you think that the Taliban really respects the US after the US let them run roughshod over the evacuation of that AirBase? Is Blowing up a bunch of people a token of their high esteem for the US?”
Another person asked, “I assume she is talking about the Taliban who deny girls education and flog women who do not cover their entire bodies so that they cannot be seen? This woman is seriously deranged.”
And one concluded, “The Taliban have NEVER respected the United States. They feared Donald Trump and they laugh at Joe Biden after he fled from Afghanistan and left them Billions in free equipment. They don’t give two s***s about some Supreme Court abortion decision. What a complete clown.”

I’m tempted to ask if she’s lost her mind but since she’s a liberal it would be a pointless question to ask.
What a moronic statement. The Taliban doesn’t respect anything but people that will blast their ass off for their threats and attacks. I could care less moron.
…and we should care because…?
I’m going to have to get up off the floor, quit rolling across it, have my hands and head looked at, and have my behind checked because I can’t stop laughing at the ridiculous comment she made. As if the Taliban have an interest in the rules governing our abortion laws. The overthrow of the law would not be in the slightest bit of interest since they would not allow it to happen in the first place and second they’re against any out of wedlock contact and if you do get pregnant and are not married, stoning is the punishment and there is no abortion done in the strict Islamic State, another stoning offense. Dumber than a load of bricks for repairing a wooden door.
Wow, that’s news!! I didn’t know the Taliban respected us in the first place.
nobody has respect for the USA
no country does
nobody does.
So the Taliban actually RESPECT America for pulling a Baby partially out of the Woman, and sucking it’s Brains out to finish the Abortion ?!
and who has any respect for the USA, now?
