Über den Autor und weitere Mitwirkende

Malalai Joya, at only 30 years of age, has been called “the most famous woman in Afghanistan” and compared to democratic leaders such as Burma’s Aung San Suu Kyi. Born in Afghanistan’s remote Farah Province, she grew up in refugee camps in Iran and Pakistan before returning to Afghanistan as a social activist and a teacher at underground girls’ schools during the Taliban’s reign. In 2003 she was elected to Afghanistan’s constitutional assembly and, two years later, was the youngest person elected to Afghanistan’s new Parliament, a post from which she was suspended in 2007 for her regular denunciation of the country’s warlords and their cronies in government.

It was incredible to read about Malalai's story. I wish more people all over the world were like her. Come on, everyone! Let's never give up our struggle for a more just and peaceful world!

Bewertet in Kanada am 14. Dezember 2013
Joya has summarized her life and presented it in a fashion which I found quite inspiring. This book is an explanation of courage manifest, something Joya has gained through an education and strong upbringing. I feel as if Joya is an archetype of those who have served to change the world, however limited in effect it may appear for now. I bought this book because I was reading Noam Chomsky's 'Hopes and Prospects'; in which he cites Joya a few times, and calls this book remarkable. I set out to buy 'A Woman Among Warlords', based entirely off Chomsky's glowing fondness of this woman and can now see justification for his conclusions.

So yes, this book is probably more than you'd expect at first glance. I cannot help but think that it describes a tragedy in regards to content. I stand in solidarity with the people of Afghanistan. I hope above all else that they may obtain amelioration, though it is unlikely, unless we insist on justice for all and seek to end xenophobia. Aside from the factual, contextual and practical modern relevance of these pages, I must note the quality in which this book is written, indeed quite high.

If you have come this far, I would advise you to obtain a copy for a read through.

5,0 von 5 Sternen Malalai Joya is my new heroine.
Bewertet in den USA am4. April 2010
Her book is highly inspirational, life changing to me by setting an example of speaking truth to power. Malalai Joya is my new heroine. A more descriptive title would be an "A Brave Women among War Criminals & Drug lords that runs the Karzai Government that tries to kill her". She is willing to die for her message against injustice & for freedom & democracy. She had at least 5 assassinations on her life. She credits her survival from leaks within the ranks of her enemies. Even associates of war criminals have some compassion. Even if she is killed as she says won't be the first or the last to die for the truth.

I couldn't put Afghan war in context before reading her book. We see glimpses of the truth in our media. But our media is as she says, "dust in the eyes of the world". Her book was shocking to me, even though I read "Killing Hope, U.S. military & C.I.A. interventions since World War II by William Blum". The Afghan war in the context of the U.S. helping Bin Ladin against the Soviets & aiding Saddam against Iran it is not surprising. She says her message is confirmed by "Human Rights Watch & Transparency International"; this is true. Larry Wilkerson who was Colin Powell's chief of staff from a different direction also confirms was she says.

There are two types of Muhajadeen. The 1st is the true patriots of Afghanistan that fought for freedom against the Soviet occupation. The 2nd type is the war criminals that killed tens of thousands of innocent Afghans & did thousands of rapes. The war criminal type has reinvented themselves as both the Taliban & "Northern Alliance". The Northern Alliance that killed 65,000 innocent Afghans in Kubul which maybe even worse than the Taliban is now the political elite in the Karzai's government. By supporting the war criminals, drug lords & the friends of rapists in the Karzai government we have betrayed the Afghan & American people, our soldiers, democracy, freedom & women's right not to be abused.

I decided we must help her. We should try to end an unjust war. American soldiers shouldn't be are lined along the TAPI pipeline route like Larry Wilkerson says. The U.S. should negotiate with other countries not to support war criminals & lead the way by cutting support for the corrupt Karzai government & ending the war. I donated to the Defense Committee for Malalai Joya ([...]). If she is killed by her enemies we should make her more powerful in death than in life.

I would give it five stars for courage and honesty, qualities that we Americans no longer possess. In spite of the enormous sacrifice that Edward Snowden made for "we the people", we are too cowardly to stand up and demand our constitutional rights. As a World War II Marine Corps vet I put my life on the line for "we, the people". Now "we,the people" are throwing their constitutional rights away. Malalai Joya symbolized the sort of people we once were. She states very boldly that Afghanistan has three enemies - the Taliban, The Mussidee, and the American occupation troops. The worst are the Americans who indiscriminately bomb wedding parties. The musshadi are thugs used by the Americans to slaughter the Afghanis and the least threatening of all are the Taliban whom she has learned how to deal with. She and all Afghanis want the American invaders to leave immediately. Such an amazing book for us to have. Wake up and fight, America.
