Wahai perempuan (dan juga kaum lelaki), waspadai Talibanisme di Indonesia! Saya terjemahkan agar semua teman-teman perempuan di milis WM dan Mediacare waspada terhadap kebangkitan Taliban di Indonesia yang sudah mulai terlihat dimana-mana, dari Aceh sampai ke Banten. Dan yang terbaru Perda Larangan keluar rumah malam hari (tanpa muhrim) bagi Perempuan di Tangerang dan RUU APP.

Bagi ibu muda Afghan itu bedanya hanya anaknya demam panas dan perlu dibawa ke dokter. Tetapi pekerjaan sederhana di Afganistan yang lagi dikuasai Taliban tidaklah demikian mudah. Si ibu sendirian dan dokternya di bagian lain kota. Tidak ada anggota keluarga dekat lelaki muhrimnya yang dapat menemani. Minta tolong laki-laki lain menghadapi risiko hukuman berat. Pergi sendirian menghadapi risiko dicambuk. > Because she loved her child, she had no choice. > Donning the tent-like burqa as Taliban law required, > she set out, cradling her child in her arms.

Mendekati pasar, dia terlihat oleh seorang muta'wain muda yang menghardik menyuruh berhenti. Dengan tekad menyelamatkan anaknya si ibu mengabaikan teriakan itu dengan harapan si mutawain akan membiarkannya. Tapi dia keliru. Pahlawan muda itu membidikkan senapannya dan menembak berkali-kali. Ibu dan anak terjerembab ke tanah. > The young Taliban guard was unrepentent -- fully > supported by the regime.

Si pemuda Taliban hanya cuek, tidak merasa bersalah -- dan tindakannya didukung sepenuhnya oleh rezim yang berkuasa.

Sebelum kebangkitan Taliban, wanita di Afganistan dilindungi undang-undang dan mendapat hak yang makin besar dalam masyarakat Afganistan. Perempuan memperoleh hak pilih tahun 1920-an, dan sejak tahun 1960-an konstitusi Afganistan memberi perlakuan yang setara pada kaum perempuan. Terdapat semangat toleransi dan keterbukaan sementara negara itu mulai melangkah menuju demokrasi. Perempuan memberikan sumbangan penting pada pembangunan nasional. > In 1977, women comprised over 15% of > Afghanistan's highest legislative body.

Tahun 1977, ada 15 persen anggota badan legislatif Afganistan yang perempuan. Tahun 1990 guru perempuan sekitar 70 persen, pegawai negeri dan mahasiswi perguruan tinggi 50 persen, dan 40 persen dokter di Kabul adalah perempuan. > Afghanistan under the Taliban had one of the worst > human rights records in the world.

Afganistan dibawah Taliban memiliki catatan pelanggaran HAM terburuk di dunia. Rezim ini secara sistematis menindas semua sektor penduduk dan bahkan tidak memberi hak-hak dasar individu. Tetapi perang Taliban terhadap perempuan secara istimewa sangat menjijikkan. > Women are imprisoned in their homes, and are denied > access to basic health care and education.

Perempuan dipenjarakan di rumah-rumah mereka dan tidak diberi akses untuk mendapat perawatan dasar kesehatan dan pendidikan. Pangan yang dikirim untuk membantu rakyat yang kelaparan dicuri oleh para pemimpin mereka. Monumen-monumen keyakinan agama lain dihancurkan. Anak-anak dilarang bermain layang-layang ..

Perendahan status perempuan berawal segera setelah Taliban berkuasa di Kabul. Taliban menutup perguruan tinggi perempuan dan memaksa hampir semua perempuan berhenti dari pekerjaan mereka, yang menutup sumber penting bakat dan keahlian bagi negara itu. Akses ke perawatan kesehatan bagi wanita dipersulit, dan secara brutal menegakkan aturan berpakaian yang sangat mengekang, dan membatasi keleluasaan perempuan untuk bergerak di kota itu. > The Taliban perpetrated egregious acts of violence > against women, including rape, abduction, and forced > marriage.

Dipaksa berhenti dari pekerjaan sebagai guru, dokter, perawat dan pegawai sewaktu Taliban mengambilalih kekuasaan, perempuan hanya dapat bekeja dalam lingkup sangat terbatas. Masyarakat kehilangan aset sangat berharga pada saat tenaga profesional terlatih sangat diperlukan. > As many as 50,000 women, who had lost husbands and > other male relatives during Afghanistan's long civil > war, had no source of income.

Mereka tidak punya sumber penghasilan untuk menghidupi keluarga. Untuk itu mereka menjual segala yang ada dan mengemis di jalan-jalan atau yang lebih buruk lagi. > Denied Education and Health Care > > Restricting women's access to work is an attack on > women today.

Taliban, membatasi pendidikan bagi anak perempuan. Sejak tahun 1998 anak perempuan di atas umur 8 tahun dilarang sekolah. Sekolah di rumah, walau terkadang dibolehkan, lebih sering ditindas. Tahun lalu, Taliban memenjarakan dan kemudian men-deportasi pekerja bantuan asing perempuan yang hendak menggalakkan pengerjaan di rumah bagi wanita dan sekolah di rumah bagi anak perempuan.

Taliban juga mewajibkan jendela rumah di-cat untuk mencegah orang luar bisa melihat wanita dalam rumah. Ini semakin mengisolasi para wanita yang semula menjalani kehidupan produktif dan menyebabkan maningkatnya kasus penyakit jiwa. Para dokter bagi Hak Azasi Manusia melaporkan tingginya persentase depresi dan bunuhdiri di kalangan wanita Afganistan. Seorang dokter Eropa melaporkan banyaknya kasus saluran pencernaan terbakar karena wanita menelan asam baterai atau pembersih rumahtangga -- metode bunuhdiri yang murah walaupun sakit. > Fettered by Restrictions on Movement > > In urban areas, the Taliban brutally enforced a > dress > code that required women to be covered under a burqa > -- a voluminous, tent-like full-body outer garment > that covers them from head to toe.

Di kawasan perkotaan, Taliban secara brutal menegakkan aturan berpakaian yang mewajibkan perempuan menutup diri dengan burqa -- pakaian selubung mirip tenda yang menutup badan dari kepala sampai ibujari kaki.
