       Apparently, Afghanistan really is where "empires go to die". I
       remember people bringing up that quote when the U.S. first
       declared it was going to invade Afghanistan....
       Afghanistan Withdrawal Leads To DEATH And PANIC

       > The U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan has lead to
       deaths and mass panic because of poor planning by the military.

       > The taliban is killing anyone who they suspect was an ally
       with the Americans.  These allies have just been abandoned and
       left to die.  I think that sends a clear message for anyone in
       the future who might want to ally with the Americans.  They
       don't have your back.

       Because their heart's were never in it in the first place?
       I still remember what my mother told me shortly after 9/11,
       "Westerners and the U.S. do not understand the Arab-World or
       Islam.". That was shortly after she had told me in regards to
       9/11: "There's no way Muslims did that, I cannot believe it!".

       Pentagon: U.S. Has Received 'No Hostile Attacks, Threats' From
       Taliban
       --- Quote ---
       > The Defense Department says U.S. military commanders at the
       Kabul airport are in touch with Taliban leaders as they
       coordinate the evacuation effort of U.S. citizens and Afghan
       allies.
       >
       > Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told reporters at a briefing on
       Tuesday that necessary interactions with Taliban leaders will
       continue as the U.S. evacuates people. He said there have been
       no new hostile encounters with Taliban fighters at the airport.
       >
       > Asked whether U.S. commanders had an agreement with the

       others awaiting evacuation, Kirby said "There are interactions
       at the airport, by our commanders, with the Taliban leaders"
       outside the airport.
       >
       > Officials hope the pace of evacuations will pick up so that as
       many as 9,000 people could be taken out of the country each day.
       >

       country, Taliban fighters are guarding Kabul airport's entry
       points and gates.

       Why 20 Years of American Aid Couldn’t Fix Afghanistan’s Roads
       and Hospitals
       --- Quote ---
       > America’s 20 year war in Afghanistan wasn’t just a military
       failure. It was also a failure of a billion-dollar program to
       stabilize the country by rebuilding its roads, schools and
       government institutions.

       Taliban calls for unity in Afghanistan
       --- Quote ---
       > The Taliban has issued guidance to imams around Afghanistan,
       claiming they should use weekly sermons and prayers to appeal
       for unity.
       > It is reported several mosques are seeing higher numbers of
       attendees than normal.
       > Across the country, Afghans went to prayers on the first
       Friday since the takeover, with the Taliban watching on, armed
       and a menacing presence - at odds with their message of freedom
       and unity.
       > There are reports of fighters going door-to-door, looking for
       those who have opposed them or worked with international forces.
       > The national flag is still being displayed in Kabul as a
       protest against Taliban rule.
       > While markets have reopened in the city, life is not yet back
       to normal - but there is a growing acceptance, however
       grudgingly, of what the future will be.
       > The Taliban want to be recognised as legitimate rulers but
       reports of violence and retribution suggests they have not
       changed.

       Your country America did not do this to you. A bunch of rightist
       politicians in the U.S. and Israel did! They all have names and
       they all have addresses! I can give you a complete list of all
       of them if you wish?

       Afghanistan as the Taliban takes control, and mental health

       Pentagon CONFIRMS Americans harassed, beaten in Kabul
       --- Quote ---
       > In a press conference Saturday, Pentagon spokesperson John
       Kirby confirmed that there have been reports of some Americans
       and Afghanis being harassed and physically harmed by the
       Taliban. Kirby added that it is his belief that these are
       isolated incidents, where the Taliban in question didn't get the
       order in time or have not listened to the orders of the higher
       command.
