The Taliban are Freedom Fighters. They kicked the Americans out of Afghanistan. The Taliban are the legitimate government whether you western Tyrants like it or not.
Now Afghanistan is ruled by Afghans and not Americans. The Taliban are more than capable of rebuilding their country. Taliban are 1000 times smarter than western politicians who wear fancy suits and use fancy vocabulary to decieve their people.
The Taliban wear their traditional Shalwaar Khameez, speak their traditional language and live a simple lifestyle. Yet, they are smarter and more capable.
Many Taliban members are fluent in multiple languages such as Pashto, Urdu, Farsi and Arabic and many of them are engineers, doctors, architects and scientists who have been educated in Turkish, Pakistani and Malaysian universities.
I am a proud Muslim and I support the Taliban and all those people who resisted Western Invasions.
TALIBAN ZINDABAAD. ISLAM ZINDABAAD.
Afghan – US relation? Both countries have problems on their own. Both government should work hard for their public safety ,defense and economy without corruption. May Allah ( God) bless and help both countries. Ameen.
You bums should be grateful to have seen of the greatest fighting force of all time, they took care of business in the face of insurmountable odds
DID EVIL DUMB JOE PAY THE TALIBAN THE $25,000,000 REWARD FOR AL QAEDE BALCONY LOCATION?
One year chinajoe takes credit for killing 13 troops 7 kids arming there troops with good weapons what a looser for a president God bless are lost troops dam you Joe
Is rather sad when female being treated like mediaeval time & using religion to suppress female in this modern era made no sense. The saddest & most disappointing is majority Islamic countries keep quiet & literally do nothing to improve female life. Condition of female is depressive. I would prefer UN & others Islamic countries to assist to made woman live better rather them Western countries interference.
The traitor president…no country should give him refuge… He brought chaos to the country..
Normal just like Vietnam
It is unlikely that you can help a nation that does not want to be helped. Now Ukraine is the total opposite where we can help people who care about their rights
Because of their Savagery of
Murdering 1,000s of people
in Revenge Killings and Genocide,
the Taliban are Hated with a vengeance by the Afghan people.
(Which you didn't happen to mention.)
Therefore, there is a concerted
Drive by the National Resistance
Front, the Afghan Liberation Movement and others to
eliminate the Brutal Taliban Invaders
and Free the Afghan People and
create a Democratic Type Government.
The US should support this effort
to make up for Trump's Signing of
the Doha Agreement that has caused such immense suffering.
P.S.
The Taliban are Decapitating, Hanging and Stoning to Death innocent Afghans .
Gruesome!
Lefties bringing up their own botched withdrawal from afghanistan and trying to place the blame somewhere else once again, biden and the liberal idiots of the democratic party caused this, and are now whining about the rights of women they left behind on purpose.
They destroy the economy, leave behind allies in a warzone to die, purposely scrap projects to harden schools against shooters then blame the tool used in the crime instead of the person that did it, refuse to prosecute crime to the point where a mass exodus of people and businesses leave whole democrat ran areas, stomping on the constitution saying its not unalienable even though it is and god gives us our rights not the gov, and then they try to spin everything to misplace the blame that should be theirs.
Food, energy, and rent at unaffordable levels
Creation of 87k irs agents aka nazi storm troopers to dig through your venmo and possessions instead of keeping a balanced budget and taxing the rich their share
Adding womens hygiene products in boys bathrooms costing millions of taxpayer dollars for products boys cant use while families struggle
Adding CRT to schools completely omitting all the infrastructure, homes, computers, even everyday products ect that everyone enjoys created by the terrible "white" man, like some white virginian coal miner is somehow oppressing someone while deep in a coal mine 18 hours a day keeping the lights on or a computer programmer making the apps everyone enjoys, when does he have time to oppress anyone its laughable
But because the liberals and democrats have raised gen z to not know simple things like how many dimes are in a dollar or how many stars on the american flag or even their god given rights, the dems have a ready made population that just does whatever the man on the screen their watching says but cant actually do anything productive like get a job to help society, the upcoming economic collapse is gonna leave all these libs begging for the gov to save them instead of being self sufficient
Biden is senile and creepy, he sniffs and inappropriately touches little girls on camera, the libs changed s3ggs ed to be taught at 5 years old before puberty, the libs are trying to take away the negative connotation of p3d0 and change it to minor attracted person even though its the most heinous crime possible, seems like theres a concerted effort to normalize and decriminalize p3d0 and hyperseggsualize kids to create a bunch of victims that think its normal, keep your kids close ppl the dems are on the prowl
Go woke go broke groom and touch some kids and blame it on everyone else is the democrat way
Atleast the repubs keep the country and economy stable and listen to logic and reason
Today is a national day of infamy for the USA. A day the Biden administration abandoned our citizens and allies to terrorists in Afghanistan. Socialist Democrat rule at its best.
What a heartbreaking story. Gosh. ( I recall listening to the withdrawal of military troops in Afghanistan .. a year ago …and then, it was chaos.) The images of people trying to escape the Taliban regime! The aircraft leaving from Kabul airport!! The people …who fell from the airplane.) It was very difficult. Yet— after 20 years there, President Biden decided, that our military troops were not needed anymore. Somebody had to decide that. These days, Afghan women and children are treated badly by the Taliban regime. There are starving people. It breaks my heart. ❤️💗💛🎏🇺🇸
Do you think anyone want to have relationship with thief, NBC? Return the 7B life saving money you stole from Afghan Muslims, USA.
The Ambassador gets paid anyway whether he accomplishes anything or not. It’s not his money that was wasted in Afghanistan. And to just lament our hasty departure is reprehensible. We should have never gone into Afghanistan.
thank you Biden
relations are great. we gave them billions in military hardware and they didn't have to do anything.
The former president is on payroll of CIA how can he blame his master the truth is his master sold him and his country to safe them self from a shameful defeat but us was defeated now call it pullout or whatever.
OF COURSE, We Americans are no longer interested in Afghanistan!
We HAD to abruptly CUT 'n RUN, abandoning women and children, in order to prepare for a PROXY-WAR in Ukraine.
But, don't worry. White or not, we will eventually abandon them too. Even if no American soldiers are dying there, since
We got the Ukraine "Mujahedeen" fighting for US. 'To The Last Ukrainian!'
Name ONE U.S. Ally we fought with, in the last 50 years that we DIDN'T eventually abandon. YOU are NEXXT!!
As soon as we get the delivery receipts for the ARMS-EXPORTS. . .
Then just sit back, and enjoy watching stock-value rise for our MILITARY-CONTRACTORS.
National holiday is American surrender day
'Runaway Jokes' finest moment that has made the US the laughing stock of the world and has embolden Putin to attack the Ukraine and China to threaten Taiwan…..
Occupying a country doesn't change the culture. The Taliban is now stronger than ever after US occupation as Americans killed hundreds of thousands of Afghan civilians.
Your BS report left out the fact that the former Afghan President left with vast amounts of money.
Where? American RepubliKKKans are now the American Taliban, starting with J6 and abortion bans.
