Afghanistan

[gonzo76]

Nobody is forgetting 911. That was the greatest act of infamy (to quote the greatest American president ever) that the world has seen since Pearl Harbor. But then you invaded Iraq!
Still one of the saddest days in my life. My beautiful American friends. An attack on you was the greatest shock that could ever have happened.

Yeah, I thought that was funny. Forgetting 9/11...

Maybe we've also forgotten that while on the brink of achieving their goals in Afghanistan they backed off, to go into Iraq.

Or maybe we've also forgotten that the Taliban offered bin Laden up and were refused.

To be fair, there are an awful lot of things we could be accused of forgetting. 47,000 Afghan civilians dead, that's an easy one to forget too.

US troops amongst those killed by suicide bombing at Kabul airport .

Number of casualties uncertain at this point .




// this be perfect opening to drop the hammer on Taliban — would come at great cost .

// also makes one wonder if it’s false-flag : to give Reason to NATO forces to stay+


Remains to be seen : how US reacts / retaliates .

Attack denied by Taliban ;

New player in arena is ‘K-ISIS’ / ‘ISIS-K’ : a branch of Isis that got established in 2015

encompassing Afghanistan , Iran , and ... don’t remember third country ..


We are living in Interesting Times ..

Heart goes out to those who had fallen xxx

Weird how they made a mistake with prediction on how long will it take for Taliban to take Kabul, yet they identified and killed alleged organisers of recent suicide bombing within hours. Just another spin more likely

If only the Taliban like the NVA in the '70s would have given more time for the Americas to leave. It would not have looked as bad! It might even have looked that nation-building worked, even for a short bit!

Womens’ Rights still fooked .

: Ministry of Women’s Affairs abolished under new ‘Interim’ Taliban Govt .


The many Tens of Thousands Interpreters having worked for NATO etc forces still fooked .

The very many Female Rights Activists are still fooked .

The very many Female Educators still fooked .

Anyone who has worked even as a doorman for any of the ‘occupying forces’ still being hunted down .


In meantime Taliban cannot make a go of it alone — economically .

They be asking ‘nicely’ for donations and the populace be crying out for humanitarian aid .

: What do you do !? >> ship aid that you Knooow will be misdiverted , or ignore the Need

for immediate medical and food Need altogether ?

: if you help - you play into hands of barbarians .

: if you don’t help and manage to ignore the heart wrenching desperate need of the people ,

...can you sleep at night ? [ <<< posed at people in position to make a difference ]
