Che -Guevara Posted August 8, 2021 It's worth noting the Taliban dominated by Pashtuns are taking over northern regions inhibited by Tajiks and Uzbeks. Kunduz is the key to drug trafficking, a key source of revenue for the Taliban. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted August 14, 2021 Nothing is fishy. They captured Afgaanistaan as quickly as they are doing now in mid '90s, too. I guess Reer Afgaanistaan want them. I hope they matured up in the last 20 years and not pull these headline-grabbing stunts their undisciplined militia did back then. So far, they are not massacring their caotured opponents. They call themselves students, yet are very poorly educated, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dhagaxtuur Posted August 14, 2021 Afghanistan, they say , is the grave of empires, from British, Soviet to American. Is this a sign of the decline of the U.S power? And of course, if one declines, another rises. Is it Chinese or dare I say Islamic system taking routes? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are still young and arrogant, but not out. China will be a horrible superpower, even worse than past western powers, as long as the communist party is in power.

Dahireeto Posted August 15, 2021 What will this do to morale of our own terrorist Alshabab? Will they think they would also pull off the same thing if AU leaves Somalia? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
