The point of Trump's peace treaty with the Taliban was to hand the country over to them. Everyone knew this would happen, the only surprise is that it happened so quickly. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For China, we don't care who's in charge, democracy or not, we just want a stable government to do business. konig and opruh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,602 Posted August 16, 2021 #8347 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Yes, I don't see how Shia Muslims could support Sunni Muslims here at all. That's one split of Islam the so-called Western democracies have never understood and probably never will. konig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Federer91 2,153 Posted August 16, 2021 #8348 Share Posted August 16, 2021 You know things are serious, when even in the uber left Reddit, overwhelming majority of Europeans are agreeing that this crisis shouldn't end in Europe again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,230 Posted August 16, 2021 #8349 Share Posted August 16, 2021 this is amazing sometimes how people believe whatever they read. first I have to say I'm really ashamed of what Iranian regime did here, they gave legitimacy to Taliban by inviting them to Tehran to "negotiate" while this group is still considered as terrorist by their own list. people still remember what Taliban did to Iranian diplomats in 1998. Iran almost went to war because of that. but Iran wasn't the first one taking pics with Taliban giving them legitimacy, that was Mike Pompeo. (and that was exactly when Taliban won the war) and while Iran has/had some influence in Afghanistan that's mostly culturally. Iran could not play a major role. unless they wanted to send troops and fight with Taliban. that was possible and probably not "that" hard for Iran but they stupidly thought they can manage living with Taliban next to our borders. and I have to say some stupid officials here just want US troops out of the region, Taliban is more "manageable" for them and again, Iran will be in lots of trouble in future, I assume none of you guys know that something like 3 million Afghan refugees are living in Iran. some of them even born in Iran. all of them (or their parents) fled Afghanistan when Taliban took over for the first time. the number was much higher but lots of them came back after the fall of Taliban in 2001. I assume lots of them (plus a lot more) will cross the borders again. and the current Iran can't handle its own people, let alone millions of refugees, it will be a disaster. and I assume with Taliban in charge there will be more drugs coming through our borders, another problem Iran has to deal with. konig, NearPup and heywoodu 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opruh 129 Posted August 17, 2021 #8350 Share Posted August 17, 2021 This is another war crime masterminded and committed by USA against humanity. If USA accepted the progressive rule of the Soviet backed goverment back then, none of this will happen. Taliban was originally formed thanks to the USA funding. USA birthed Taliban.
