I guess preventing women from learning to read is good in

No, it is not! Where are people in power in the US preventing
women from learning to read in the US? What "Power" is needs to be
precisely defined. Arguments from unreal hypotheticals are always
fallacious.
What hypothetical?? Women ARE prevented from learning to read in
Afghanistan and we DO think it would be a bad thing to keep women from
learning to read here.

Is the average US citizen the cause of the actions of the average
Teleban member in Afghanistan? What is the relation between some
activity in Afghanistan and in "somewhere we are". This is an
equivocation, thus a rubbish argument.
