I think the taliban are encouraging ISIS to do their dirty work like attacking Americans and or the Kabul Airport whilst they try to present themselves to the world in a favorable light.
Hopefully the Americans at least will be able to get out but it appears the odds are against them.

Biden by his stupidity has left it up to the taliban and attempted to wash his hands of it.
