The Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan - (RAWA)

[ola.]

What are your overall opinions of this organization?

I admit I only know very little about them, so can someone explain their defined politics and objectives? How leftist are they exactly?

[Two Buck Chuck]

I don't know, but I've wondered the same thing. Their Wikipedia article simply says "women's rights" and "secular democracy", but I also recall reading they had links to Maoist groups early on, and now groups like Marxist-Humanist Initiative appear to be fond of them.

[Sir Comradical]

They were monarchists who betrayed Afghan women by campaigning against socialist Afghanistan. Useless garbage.

They campaigned to have Zahir Shah installed until the old fucker finally croaked in 2007. They are part of the problem.
