    IMO they are all basically the same and work together although the "enemy of my enemy is my friend " when it comes to Islam I think it changes. To where all non mulims are the enemy.

    It is looking more and more like leaders of first world nations are helpinh Islam set up its caliphate.Why so many of them kissing up to islam? Now most of Europe is overrun,London even has a muslim mayor, most popular name for males born there for past several years is Ali or Mohammad.
    Like the old rocker said " things going on that we don't know".

    IMO only good muslim is a hypocrit muslim. Anyone who has read the Quran or parts of it anyway knows they can't go by any laws other than islamic if they obey the quran.It is their duty to Allah to obey the laws. They will set a state within a state till it grows into a nation and it is ok to do whatever it takes to promote and build islam till they have enough numbers to take over.Lie to the infedell till you get advantage .There is really no such thing as a moderate muslim .

    A picture is worth a thousand words. Does this show the picture of a strong man who can handle the job of US president?

    Again, some explanations are useless .Why USA took so long to repatriate our troops / helpers?
    The fact thousands of Afghanistan's nationals are desperately trying to leave the country says it all.

    Biden basically reversed the order and timing of Trump's plan. Under Trump's plan, the military was to be the last to leave. Under Biden's plan, the military left first. Couldn't do anything Trump's way, y'know. Also Trump had the withdrawal timed for February, and Biden postponed it until August. I really don't know about this, so I have to consider the opinion of others who said the withdrawal under Trump was timed to coincide with difficult travel in Afghanistan. Biden's postponement to August put our retreat at the beginning of "the fighting season" when wars are traditionally fought there due to more favorable conditions. That, allegedly, is what permitted the Taliban to sweep across the country so quickly. This is all leading to the conspiracy theory that it was all done deliberately in order to force us back into war in a big way so the Military-Industrial Complex could profit awhile weakening the U.S. in the eyes of the world.

    I've been entertaining the thought that once this phase of withdrawal is over, the Taliban might become the Taliban 2.0, that is a kinder and gentler Taliban. Authoritarian regimes like China, Iran, Vietnam and Russia allow their citizens enough slack to conduct their personal affairs with just enough leeway to avoid rebellion. It would show a more civilized facade to the rest of the world when dealing with other nations and be taken more seriously. Their existence would be less challenged by the US and others.

    @Ed Wilson

    Were you born a dreamer, or have events brought this on?

    I just think that it would be pragmatic for them not to act like savages in the eyes of the world. The real prize they won is control of their natural resources and China and others will come a-courtin'. Maybe it's wishful thinking.

    Stuart Schiller is a Battalion Commander with the United States Marine Corps and sadly, I can see that he’s risked his pension and career because he’s ticked at how things went. He has a right to his feelings but he is after all a Marine in active service so he risked it all just to make a statement.
    I have no doubt that he’ll either be asked to resign his commission or worse.

    Note: I’m on several military and paramilitary sites now because frankly, I want to know the truth and not some spin that the President nor the media have to offer. I got lucky and found a copy of his statement on YouTube where the comments are a little more reassuring than the ones on his site.



    Well, that was quick. Another YouTube channel made this announcement:

    I can say that I gotta like your thinking but I haven’t found much evidence of any type of diplomacy in the ranks of the Taliban.
    As far a people’s rights go, there’s a whole generation or so of people who were allowed to “lighten up” a little because of Western intervention. Now, with the return of absolute Sharia Law, there’s going to be a lot of very fast and very painful instructions that those people are going to have to adhere to. They’ll also have to get used to slavery again not only regarding their own social class system but in the poppy fields as well.
    All that said, alas, it will no longer be our problem to address.
