Subhanallah! He called them tribal society and says Syria will not turn into Afghanistan!
This is not an insult, every culture is different and pashtun culture is certainly less cosmopolitan than Syrian or even Somali culture. The reason the Taliban ban female education is because of Pashtunwali (Pashtun version of Xeer). Of course there is nothing wrong with this as 'Urf (Societal custom) is very important when it comes legislation as long as it doesnt directly contravene the Sharia.
For example Al Shabaab lets women take Computer science classes in Jilib and Jolani's HTS had 60% University enrollment rate for women in Idlib. This is simply because Somali and Syrian culture are not compatible with a Taliban model because our cultures are less misogynistic.
As for the assertion that Jolani is insulting the Taliban or the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan this has no basis in reality. The Taliban congratulated Jolani and mentioned HTS by name when they took over Damascus on December 8th. The Taliban also handed out sweets in Kabul after HTS's victory. HTS did the same thing when the Taliban took over Kabul in 2021. Like wise Jolani's right hand man and second-in-command, Abdulrahim Atoun, praised the Taliban in 2021 and said they are a model of resistance.
