I have a feeling it has something to do with women being treated as property/lesser/etc.

Are they not?
Kidding! My initial response was sarcasm as well. Clearly their divorce process is as biased towards men as ours is towards women.

American who ran off to ISIS is being denied re-entry to the U.S.
Trump's administration is telling her she no longer has citizenship. Trump is taking the blame, but wouldn't low level clerks be dealing with her applications?
Anyway, her people's argument is:
Also, this quote confuses me:

Anyway, her people's argument is:
Fair enough and she is willing to return and face charges. However, when you leave the country and join an enemy of the country that is actively at war with the country, isn't that a pretty good reason to lose citizenship?"Citizenship is a core right under the Constitution, and once recognized should not be able to be unilaterally revoked by tweet -- no matter how egregious the intervening conduct may be."
Also, this quote confuses me:
She's been gone 5 years. How many men did she marry?"During my years in Syria I would see and experience a way of life and the terrible effects of war which changed me. Seeing bloodshed up close changed me. Motherhood changed me. Seeing friends, children, and the men I married dying changed me," Muthana wrote.

She does have a point, people change. But she should be willing to face consequences beyond, "My bad, you guys. Let's just forget about all this."

People do change. People also pretend to have remorse only to work against you from within.

The Taliban allow two reporters full access for 36 hours.
Not a lot of PR experience in the Taliban apparently. This article shows us that they are exactly what people think. Oppressive and backwards.

My first thoughts this morning:
"People are simply the worst."
"How does attacking innocent folks further anyone's cause?"

ISIS member warned of the Sri Lanka bombings.
A mosque apparently warned authorities of the bombing ringleader.
This is a bad look for government.
