The Afghan Army

[Tommy Tainant]

Are they made of chocolate ? A bump in the road seems to cause the Taliban more problems than they do.
And what were the Americans doing there for 20 years ? Sitting on their arses by the look of it.

Where were the Welsh? Probably injecting all of the heroin.

Maybe dubya made a mistake by invading the middle east to find one man. Maybe the thick fucker should have had a plan. ? He is so lucky that trump has erased memories of how shit he was.

The Taliban should have full control over the country in no time after Biden pulled out.

And don't be shocked if the US ambassador is dragged out and shot.

We've seen this movie before.

We spent 20 years building and training the Afghan Army. We have provided them with state of the art equipment

Still, they are no match for motivated Taliban forces with AK-47s

Its like a whistle stop tour of the Stan. A different city is going down every day. There doesnt seem to be much of a defence strategy.

Run away!
Run away!

Run away!

I do hope that they havent been given state of the art weaponry.

20 years ago I predicted this to be the eventual outcome of the U.S. misadventure in Afghanistan.
It's basically Vietnam 2.0. .....

That’s because so-called moderate Muslims don’t have the heart to stand up to the more radical ones. Democracy as we know it cannot exist in the Muslim world, they love being ruled by religious zealots. Muslims always vote in radicals if given the chance.

Best thing we can do is isolate them and contain Muslims to the Middle East. Don’t allow any immigration from their countries and stop trying inject democracy into their barbaric culture. It won’t ever work.

Sticking our noses where it doesn’t belong and nation building in our own image

W. took his eye off the ball when he invaded Iraq on false pretenses.

Having said that, the fall of Kabul was inevitable whether the pull out was now or another twenty years from now.

It is up the people of Afghanistan to fight for their freedom now.

The Taliban is nothing more than a band of murderous thugs intent on the subjugation of women and any one they deem " an infidel."

The Afghans need to fight them if they do not want to return to the 8th Century.

(Of course, the 8th Century may still be a more enlightened place than where the Taliban wants to take its people.)

Egypt, Turkey, Lebanon, Kuwait, Pakistan, and Iraq, are all Democracies. ...

There are several countries that grow poppies for the pharmaceutical industry.

Where in the ME do they vote in radicals?

LOL Turkey. Yea, when the Ataturks ruled they had to overthrow the government every other decade, because the people kept elected radicals. Well now they are gone thanks to the Hussein not backing them, now Erdofag is turning Turkey into a regular radicalized Muslim shit hole.

LOL Lebanon? Lebanon used to be a Christian nation, then they allowed millions of Muslim refugees in. Then when Muslims had the numbers, proceeded to start a civil war and genocide the Christians. That’s been a shit hole ever since.

Egypt just went through a bunch of bullshit with the Muslim Brotherhood that the Hussein backed. Thankfully they were kicked to the curb, so for now Egypt is okay. But it’s only a matter of time until the radicals take over again.

Iraq is a joke, as soon as we leave Iraq the same thing will happen, and Iran will step in and start a civil war and genocide.
We should had broken up Iraq into different nations according to its ethnic groups, so they could live in some relative peace. But even then the different factions of Muslims hate each other they probably would had started wars anyway.

Again, I could care less if they are radicals ruled by dictators. We should leave them be and just contain them to the ME. They would be happy to start wars and genocide each other. That would be a win win situation for us, instead of pushing democracy and multiculturalism onto them.

Everywhere.

Everywhere.

Name a country.

Lebanon was 50-50 Christian until Israel forced Palestinian refugees on them in 1948 and 1967.

Gosh Beirut was a wonderful city.
