Done! Remember, a typical Taliban fighter in Afghanistan, like a typical Viet Cong guerrilla fighter in Vietnam during the Indochina war, carries less than $50 worth of arms & ammunition. The USA-led West is withdrawing from Afghanistan, as in Vietnam in the past. Besides, it's noteworthy to know that war in both Afghanistan & Vietnam were the USA-led allies' longest war. Noteworthy to know that war in Afghanistan is all about "Rare Earth Minerals", while Vietnam was all about "Rubber" that nation produced about three quarters of world's supply in those days. 🤔 For honest truths, pls read my informative multi-pages 'Ole Fella' comment on UTube at.., "China-US tensions: A closer look at the Five-Eyes intelligence partnership / CGTN"

His father seemed a voice of reason amongst chaos... I hope he will be the same. I wish him and all the people of Afghanistan an end to violence and a peaceful future.
His father was quite good at entertaining sanators, ministers and high profile beurocrates at Panjsher valley and he is better than his father in this, but Afghan environment has changed. Before it was ocean, now it is desert. So the problem here is that son still wants to remain a ship captain.

I urge all countries especially US, UK , Europe, India please help Northern Alliances (Amrullah Saleh & Ahmad Massoud) Mr.Amrullah Saleh & Mr.Ahmad Massoud are the only brave guys solely fighting against these talibans bravely in Panjshir. If all countries help him means there are massive chances defeating Talibans. So on priority basis please help northern alliance (Ahmad Massoud & Amrullah).World must support northern alliance.
Franz Marty is a very impressive journalist. Also credit to Mr. Okwu and other DW News anchors as to how they conduct interviews. None of the bells and whistles you typically get from other mainstream news source.
If I were an Afghani and I couldn't get out, I'd move to the Panjshir Valley ASAP. They seem to be the only successful fighting force against the Taliban.
@@xtceeee1 the concern of many people observing in the west is the harm that may come to ethnic minorities, women, and human rights in general. I understand part of it is subjective. But most of us aren't supporting any particular side, our hearts just ache from the suffering we see. Some of us, even those of us who were just children when this catastrophe started feel insufferable guilt, yet feel we are hopeless to help. It just makes me cry.
Massoud has already agreed to no resistance against Taliban. Massoud's family (uncles) visited Taliban leadership yesterday and announced no resistance from Massoud. Possibility is Massoud and his family will be given some part to play in new system. So yeah to have faith in Panjshir resistance is useless, this isn't 1996. Also, Taliban have announced that there will be an inclusive govt. so this doesn't leave a reason to show resistance against them.
The Talibans are the TRUE PATRIOTS of Afghanistan...unlike that pretender who is ASKING THE WEST especially the Americans for intervention....AH that guy
Masood is an ethnic Tajik. Pure Aryans and great fighters. Also very sophisticated and cultured people. His father was not only brave but a man of very high morals.
@Mr Jesus 72 percent Indians are pure Aryans. Color changes due to climate thus Southern Iranians though pure Aryans are tanned. Same for Southern Europeans and we Punjabis in general, though we are pure Aryans. Many castes in South are pure Aryans as well and can even can be very light living in colder climate. Vishwanath Anand is the purest of Aryans. The people of Kashmir in color are exactly similar to many Germans, Tajik, Iranians, Armenians, Kurds, etc. Kashmir has very cold climate like the Pamirs which it borders.
These questions beg to be asked: Why didn’t evacuations begin back in April 2021 when it was announced the U.S. would totally withdraw by Sept 11? How come the very well trained, equipped and numerically superior Afghani forces turned and ran? Why did the Taliban walk in to stores jammed packed with weapons, vehicles, and even drones? It’s a growing forest of question marks.
They dropped their rifles and ran because they knew they weren't up for the task. Most of them were drug addicts. We should have burned the poppy fields and trained and armed the women.
There is an excellent thread by Mike Mazzarr. Taking quotes from Robert Komer 1972 work and subtituting Vietnam (South) with Afghanistan. "Molding conventional Afghan armed forces in the ‘mirror image’ of the US forces which were supplying them was a natural institutional reaction. We organized, equipped, and trained the Afghan forces to fight American style, the only way we knew how.” Afghan military is a rich country army that cannot be sustained by the Afghan state. No wonder it collapse.
@@eclectictomboy6873 First of all the afgan army did not drop ANY weapons they took them with them to their Taliban ARMY along with ammunition , vehicles, communications are better trained soldiers where their TRUE allegiance was and is! The Taliban had planned these vents for the last twenty years and did an EXCELLENT job of taking over THEIR country in FULL force! The US trained them much better, supplied the new weapons, vehicles, support materials and structure not to be taken over by a FOREIGN force a SECOND time. Im sure that VERY soon the problems of the past will be seen AGAIN in MUCH worse numbers as the US will be UNABLE to see their plans for us here in the USA!
It's his fault Taliban have taken over. He gave the country to them for money. He deserves no repsect. I vastly prefer the Taliban over that coward. They may be ultra conservative and religious fanatics - but at least they are honourable.
Pretty sure when tRump initiated talks with Taliban, asked for their fighters and leaders to be released, and signed a "deal" with them - it was recognition.

I cant blame our Goverment for trying to Help Afaghanistan But If Afghanistan Army surrendered and ran and let the Taliban take over its only because The Afghanistan Army gave in and DID NOT want to fight for their country, HOW WAS ANYONE TO KNOW THIS WOULD HAPPEN!! Our US Goverment shouldnt be blamed for this. We shelled out millions of $$$$ to train them beside our American Soldiers , why couldnt they defend their country, they had 20 years of training. PEOPLE should not be blaming the U.S.A. we went above and beyond our duty to help them, but they have to help themselves as well. Thats how I see it.
Technically, the US is still at war with the Taliban. Trump negotiated a poor and hasty deal for withdrawal only. The US can and should aid the Northern Alliance.
Ahmad Massoud will follow in his father's footsteps. Hopefully the West will actually listen this time. Had the US listened to Ahmad Shah Massoud back in the 90's 9/11 would've never happened! Strength and victory for the Northern Alliance ✊✊✊✊ resistance and liberation for Afghanistan!!

@@missindependent1973 It's a positive for the troops who just do as ordered which the stoned Afgani troops often didn't. There are videos your not seeing of our guys so frustrated at the complete lack of willingness to fight yet many wanted the paycheck. It's like taking a job to do nothing and making a issue of racism when there was none you get pad to work just do your friggin job. I watched and saw multiple troops whine like babies they had to do any training and it was pathetic. Those who did train and fight were not a great number, we were lied to while videos were leaked proving the time wasted on almost if not a third of them.
The Northern Alliance are allied with Tajikistan, which coincidentally China just happens to have a military base in. It would be very foolish for the Taliban to go against China (the Taliban 500-700 people vs China’s 8 billion people) I don’t like either party, but if the Taliban makes and attacks the NA in Tajikistan, the Taliban will..lose.
india is the most likely to support them since kashmir is close to where panjshir is and panjshir is named after the 5 brothers (pandavas) in the hindu epic Mahabharat
" the taliban and Al qaeda have shown a twisted version of Islam"- Ahmad Shah Massoud. Under the territories of Ahmad Shah massoud, forced marriages are banned, women were given equal rights to men, they were allowed to study, hijab is not cumpolsort, he is tolerant of other faiths and other ethnicities, something which the Taliban were not.

The Northern Alliance were quite nasty and thuggish. Just because they are against the Taliban doesn't automatically mean they are good guys. They have a very dark side.
@@0flyswatter0 you have to have a dark side to fight evil. Do you think it's easy to take a stand to fight for your right? You have to reach within you to draw inner strength, sometimes people will see it as dark but that's what sustains you through the rough times.
Any regime that rules by the gun will abuse their moral authority, he who has the guns breaks the rules and dares the victims to resist at their own peril.
Masoud, the guy who got killed by al qaeda in 2001, literally has the cleanest human rights records, and he personally intervened in a forced marriage on 2 occasions. The other guy, however, executed 3 thousand taliban POWs. If you weren't biased and actually did a quick google search then you would have known this
It’s crazy how everyone blames us and watches from the side but no other country has done anything nor cared to help we’re done blowing trillions on men who won’t fight for there own women we need to focus that money on our financial education in high schools and prepare our kids better stop blowing all this money on bs stayed there for 20 years and all we got was a opium addiction back home
According to US veterans, many of the afghans working for US were druglords, corrupted policemen etc. I guess the Talibans are happy to see them leave.
THE USA should deployed some hundred best psychologist in Afghanistan for 2 decades and study the average citizen mind carefully and then they should invite a systmer where they can change the psyche of norman Afghan bcoz what I learn from Afghan war is this if you cannot chnage the population psychology then they will never change by modern weapons or billion of dollars !
No, they will not conquer Afghanistan. They just want a free province-hopefully they are able to hold out. Laudable goal, but narrow in scope and ambition.
The Afghans need to be strong to defend their country. May God give all of you strength to face this trouble what politicians has caused. Peace and safty to the people of Afganistan. Our prayer are with you all .
its myth that badri 313 is talibani they all are Pakistani or trained by isi or china. because most of them don't have long beard . and long beard is symbol of true talibani. and they officially said that in their rule mens are not allowed to trim there beard and all female should have to covered their hair by hijab
LOL! You want to put your faith in CIA assets like Saleh and Masood? These Tajik northerners are a minority in Afghanistan, and never in the history of the country have non-Pashtuns ruled over the Pashtun majority. You'll have to accept that the Taliban have won, and they are here to stay.
@@lonelyboy1977 lolzz won for 1 week for now if u say they have won they should have captured every region in the country but he'll no there is still one region not under them
@@hansgruber1686 LOL!!! Yeah, one SMALL region that is surrounded on all sides by the Taliban. So, how are they going to get supplies in? And who is going to trust them (given that the two ringleaders are CIA assets) after Uncle Sam already betrayed them? And now that China is backing the Taliban, what are those clowns hiding in Panjshir going to do about it? And last, but not least, as I already said they are Tajik northerners who are a minority in Afghanistan. Never in the history of the country have non-Pastuns ruled over the Pashtun majority. It's over. Deal with it. 😄
Frivolous who said the Coalition aren't gonna "accidentally" airdrop weapons and supplies? Plus they have Panjshir Valley, hard to cross, has a choke point, well-defended. Its a 1 vs 100 situation but with foreign help they can slowly invade Taliban held provinces. But there is a higher chance of failure... But I'm pretty sure the Coalition won't just leave the Northern Alliance burning. Hope they make a comeback
Seeing the baby wailing in the massive heat, is heart wrenching. I'm praying the Afgan people rise up in full force and defeat that wicked gang called taliban. It's so wrong.
If the Afghanis revolt against the Taliban it has to come from themselves with no outside help who usually have their own interests and agendas and not necessarily the welfare of the afghans
1) Taliban are afghans 2) there not a gang or "terrorists" 3) There a legitimate group of rulers who ruled in the 1900s as well 4) there Pashtun so basicly the founding people of Afghanistan
I just think what if all of the citizens in afgahn are all gone to other country who can taliban leader to? They just want power but wht if there's no citizen of afghan
There's a lot of people leaving - mostly from Kabul and other "americanized" regions. But they number in thousands. Not milions. Media always focuses on sensationalism and shys away from reality. If the Talliban were so universaly opposed - they would never sieze whole country in a little more than a week.
Notice the pattern: June 2014: Iraqi Army abandoned their posts and left their American weapons for ISIS. ISIS then went on a 3 year rampage across Iraq and Syria. August 2021: Afghanistan Army abandoned their posts and left their American weapons for the Taliban. The Taliban then went...oh wait. The Taliban just said thank you, much obliged. I smell something fishy.

No we see what was the agreement what he made and we don't also know how much money they received from Trump to buy local leaders in Afghanistan

The west should provide weapons, ammunition and equipment to Massoud and his army. This will keep the Taliban off balance and make them more vulnerable to future resistance. Fight fire with fire as the saying goes. I hope that the brave people of Panjshir are successful in their struggle to determine their own destiny.
I guarantee you; the west will eventually accept the Taliban as a legitimate government. The real betrayal has yet to come, it is the biggest fear at this point. Taliban need to be defeated and right now Northern Alliance is our only hope.
@@zabsar3615 I do not think that most Western nations will accept the Taliban as the legitimate government of Afghanistan as long as the Northern Alliance resists, and gives hope to the people of that nation. I for one will, encourage our government to support and supply the Northern Alliance as much as possible. We should not abandon them!
@Meow meow Meow meow The Northern Alliance is far better motivated to resist than the ANA ever was. They also have Ahmed Massoud as their leader. He will not collapse and flee as many in the Afghan government did. He has the blood of the Lion of the North flowing through his veins! We must support Massoud and the Northern Alliance in their defiance of tyranny.

Somewhat surprising, but at the least, they have my support. For what it's worth, there are also protests in Kabul and abroad - some of those in Kabul have been as Taliban fighters looked on - and the Afghan economy is about to collapse.
Taliban resistance need open a gate for outside help. Such start off with airport give key access to outside or top corner map. Because they are surrounded with corner of Taliban
Unlike the last time they ruled the country, now the Taliban control all Border crossings. They're effectively cut off. My guess is that the Taliban will let them stay in Panjshir while they solidify control on the rest of the country and then move on them. The idea that these guys will retake the country when the whole Afghan National Army couldn't is ridiculous.
@@marlonbryanmunoznunez3179 not so sure about that one. All the Taliban has to do is make an incursion into Tajikistan who are NA allies, who is allied with Tajikistan? China.

@@bankerpiggy4721 that’s what I’m saying USA trained the soldiers, supplied the army, funded the gov and yet when they left the coordinators just immediately gave up and ran away with the money and also told the soldiers to not fight, who also didn’t care a lot because they only care about their tribe which was a mistake on USA because they should have positioned each soldier to their respective tribe so that they are willing to protect it
I think EU leaders should check international laws: even taking diplomatic talks is an implicit recognition of a foreign entity although you say it is not a recognition.
Unpeace, you would have had the United States do nothing while Osama Bin Laden was being protected by the Taliban? Now THAT would have been ridiculous.

The fact that they hold the worlds largest lithium deposits are exactly why so many countries, including the US, won't leave them alone. Without that, I doubt we would have stayed this long.
Dear Joe, This is just a quick note of thanks. We were on the verge of running out of trucks, guns, helicopters, planes and so forth. You kindly gifted us all of your best stuff. My M4 works great! Much better than my trusty AKM. Now all my family and brothers have one. Still, it would have been nice if you had left some maintenance men behind just to keep it all nice and shiny. Please remember for next time. Sorry about all the US and British dead and with life changing injuries. It is what you call "collateral damage." In any case, I know how well you look after your veterans, so they will be OK Joe. Oh yes, I must not forget. My brothers also thank you for the $144 billion that you have lavished on our infrastructure. For example, without the generator you generously supplied for the dam we could not charge the peasants for their electricity. As for the schools you built for the girls they also make excellent storage depots for all that ammunition that you kindly donated to Al Qaeda and the cause. They asked me to give you a 'high five' (whatever that is). The Chinese are tickled pink about this too. The roads you built for us just perfectly match up with the one they want to build to exploit our huge copper resources. Praise be to Allah (oh, and you too Joe): It's now all falling into place. Sorry that your country now looks like the clown of the world, but that was not our fault. You have gone from Super Power to Super Joke since this January. You just have to look to yourself for that my friend. So as I say, you have done us a massive favour, so it is only right that we do right by you in return. You can use the runway for the rest of the month: No charge. Yours sincerely, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, Chairman of the Taliban-Biden Friendship Society. Our Motto: "The US Taxpayer: The goof that just keeps on giving."
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar was released from prison in 2018 by Pakistani officials after pressure from the U.S. government under the Trump administration. The Taliban thanks the orange incompetent no nothing POS for handing them their leader back.

Russia is backing Northern Alliance via Tajikistan. If he dies it will be rallying cry for his men to go o rampage. Taliban victory is short lived not because of northern alliance but it will be uprooted by people of Afghanistan with little help from other countries.
@@SherKhan-rd9uw You may be right he may get killed but so can others and I dont see him surrendering. Also Northern Alliance never lost. Even Russian couldnt overpower Panjshir with all its might from 1980 to 1985. Northern Alliance was later supported by Russia, Iran, Turkey, Tajikisthan, India and others. Taliban on other hand was formed much later in 1990s with support from Pak and US blessings. Taliban is only good at beating women , oppressing people and conducting terror attacks. Afghanistan people have really struggled for decades and deserve peace unfortunately this is not going to happen.

Religion is really the cause of so many wars through out history. So much blood shed. There is nothing great about these gods.
You think the US isn't a great military power any more, and you think deciding to leave Afghanistan is surrendering? Germany isn't a great military power since the end of WW2, and that was what we'd call a real surrender.
Short answer: No Long answer: they couldn't make it even when they were assisted by the US & NATO - now what when the US & NATO pulled their troops, major equipment, and funding?
Now Taliban first priority should be providing a Stable and growing economy......to afghan people,, World should help them...... They are not currupt people like Ashraf ghani administration.

Done! Remember, a typical Taliban fighter in Afghanistan, like a typical Viet Cong guerrilla fighter in Vietnam during the Indochina war, carries less than $50 worth of arms & ammunition.
The USA-led West is withdrawing from Afghanistan, as in Vietnam in the past.
Besides, it's noteworthy to know that war in both Afghanistan & Vietnam were the USA-led allies' longest war.
Noteworthy to know that war in Afghanistan is all about "Rare Earth Minerals", while Vietnam was all about "Rubber" that nation produced about three quarters of world's supply in those days. 🤔

So are you in Aryan brotherhood?
@Mr Jesus the only truth is science, not religion
@Mr Jesus 72 percent Indians are pure Aryans. Color changes due to climate thus Southern Iranians though pure Aryans are tanned. Same for Southern Europeans and we Punjabis in general, though we are pure Aryans. Many castes in South are pure Aryans as well and can even can be very light living in colder climate. Vishwanath Anand is the purest of Aryans. The people of Kashmir in color are exactly similar to many Germans, Tajik, Iranians, Armenians, Kurds, etc. Kashmir has very cold climate like the Pamirs which it borders.
These questions beg to be asked: Why didn’t evacuations begin back in April 2021 when it was announced the U.S. would totally withdraw by Sept 11? How come the very well trained, equipped and numerically superior Afghani forces turned and ran? Why did the Taliban walk in to stores jammed packed with weapons, vehicles, and even drones? It’s a growing forest of question marks.
They dropped their rifles and ran because they knew they weren't up for the task. Most of them were drug addicts. We should have burned the poppy fields and trained and armed the women.
There is an excellent thread by Mike Mazzarr. Taking quotes from Robert Komer 1972 work and subtituting Vietnam (South) with Afghanistan.
"Molding conventional Afghan armed forces in the ‘mirror image’ of the US forces which were supplying them was a natural institutional reaction. We organized, equipped, and trained the Afghan forces to fight American style, the only way we knew how.”
Afghan military is a rich country army that cannot be sustained by the Afghan state. No wonder it collapse.
The Afghan army was better equipped to face the taliban but understand they’ve been fighting for decades, maybe they just wanted peace
I agree with you on why NO previous evacuation, EspeCIALLY in secret!
@@eclectictomboy6873 First of all the afgan army did not drop ANY weapons they took them with them to their Taliban ARMY along with ammunition , vehicles, communications are better trained soldiers where their TRUE allegiance was and is! The Taliban had planned these vents for the last twenty years and did an EXCELLENT job of taking over THEIR country in FULL force! The US trained them much better, supplied the new weapons, vehicles, support materials and structure not to be taken over by a FOREIGN force a SECOND time. Im sure that VERY soon the problems of the past will be seen AGAIN in MUCH worse numbers as the US will be UNABLE to see their plans for us here in the USA!

@@kimsmith7212 I think they do just not in public view as they know people wouldn't be happy about it and they'd loose votes
The west should provide weapons, ammunition and equipment to Massoud and his army. This will keep the Taliban off balance and make them more vulnerable to future resistance. Fight fire with fire as the saying goes. I hope that the brave people of Panjshir are successful in their struggle to determine their own destiny.
I guarantee you; the west will eventually accept the Taliban as a legitimate government.
The real betrayal has yet to come, it is the biggest fear at this point. Taliban need to be defeated and right now Northern Alliance is our only hope.
@@zabsar3615 I do not think that most Western nations will accept the Taliban as the legitimate government of Afghanistan as long as the Northern Alliance resists, and gives hope to the people of that nation. I for one will, encourage our government to support and supply the Northern Alliance as much as possible. We should not abandon them!
@Meow meow Meow meow The Northern Alliance is far better motivated to resist than the ANA ever was. They also have Ahmed Massoud as their leader. He will not collapse and flee as many in the Afghan government did. He has the blood of the Lion of the North flowing through his veins! We must support Massoud and the Northern Alliance in their defiance of tyranny.
@@j.b.macadam6516 sir, I appreciate it.
The people do need the encouragement right now. They need to be motivated to rise up.
America" We couldn't protect the Capitol so how can we protect a whole country?
No that was the Afgan army lol
They are withdrawing and you can bet these soldiers will be relieved they leaving. And don't tell me you wouldn't be if in their shoes.. Get real.lots of fecking heroes on here.. if you want to help go over get it sorted
This broke my heart. I hope this evilness stops
Biden wants to get rid of the pot now, but he is the president. Now some media are trying to change public opinion and blame the former President Trump. You don’t want to think about Trump’s withdrawal. The United States basically agrees, but there is a problem with Biden’s withdrawal, I hope.

@@socrates5647 No, but it appears any sort of Afghan National Will has had its testicles removed. Fight for yourselves.
Does anyone else not find it shocking that there is already a group in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban somewhat effectively?
Somewhat surprising, but at the least, they have my support.
For what it's worth, there are also protests in Kabul and abroad - some of those in Kabul have been as Taliban fighters looked on - and the Afghan economy is about to collapse.
“There’s no talks with the Taliban” what were the talks in Doha 😂😂😂
I'd never heard of DW news until a few days ago, I kinda like it
Taliban resistance need open a gate for outside help. Such start off with airport give key access to outside or top corner map. Because they are surrounded with corner of Taliban
Unlike the last time they ruled the country, now the Taliban control all Border crossings.
They're effectively cut off.
My guess is that the Taliban will let them stay in Panjshir while they solidify control on the rest of the country and then move on them.
The idea that these guys will retake the country when the whole Afghan National Army couldn't is ridiculous.
@@marlonbryanmunoznunez3179 not so sure about that one. All the Taliban has to do is make an incursion into Tajikistan who are NA allies, who is allied with Tajikistan? China.
USA really messed up, but I’m still a bit mad over the trained and re equipped afghan army. They didn’t even put up a fight
It's called men and mice the mice got on planes some men stayed I think there is a plot over there another war is bout to start USA will not b in it only reason why Taliban has not started it bcuz they r scared of USA and we need not support nobody over there it's time for them to fight there own war now
Kinda hard to put up a fight when all the coordinators just bolt
@@bankerpiggy4721 that’s what I’m saying, they didn’t even bother to fight
@@datboi6671 and im saying they cant fight when nobody tells them to
@@bankerpiggy4721 that’s what I’m saying
USA trained the soldiers, supplied the army, funded the gov and yet when they left the coordinators just immediately gave up and ran away with the money and also told the soldiers to not fight, who also didn’t care a lot because they only care about their tribe which was a mistake on USA because they should have positioned each soldier to their respective tribe so that they are willing to protect it
if it will lead to Civil War, so be it, to know who really supported by the Afghan majority...
just no intervention from other country
If you want to see how the US conducted the war in Afghanistan or Iraq, just take a look at how they conducted the withdrawal from Kabul.
Truly exceptional.
I think EU leaders should check international laws: even taking diplomatic talks is an implicit recognition of a foreign entity although you say it is not a recognition.
Republican Bush should have never started this mess
The US foreign policy system in general, not just Biden or Trump or any other single American, started this mess.
Which Bush? Junior or Senior?
well Obama had 8 years to stop it
Unpeace, you would have had the United States do nothing while Osama Bin Laden was being protected by the Taliban? Now THAT would have been ridiculous.
@@robertsmith-ic1wp Once the train has gained momentum you can’t just stop it

He is a beautiful man, inside and out.
Godbless Mr Massoud for his Victory like his father sending many prayers from Philippines✌✌✌✌
We must DEMAND our leaders help this courageous man and those who fight with him. We MUST!! Raise your voices and be heard!! Remember "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and truer words were never more appropriate....I am going to pray for this son of 'the lion', Ahmad Massoud that he is most successful! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

And, you think being rich is successful?
@@ahmedshinwari kind of yeah because they would've been more educated and more people would've been employed so people will be more happy
The fact that they hold the worlds largest lithium deposits are exactly why so many countries, including the US, won't leave them alone. Without that, I doubt we would have stayed this long.
I think "inclusive" means Taiban only.
Dear Joe,
This is just a quick note of thanks.
We were on the verge of running out of trucks, guns, helicopters, planes and so forth. You kindly gifted us all of your best stuff. My M4 works great! Much better than my trusty AKM. Now all my family and brothers have one. Still, it would have been nice if you had left some maintenance men behind just to keep it all nice and shiny. Please remember for next time.
Sorry about all the US and British dead and with life changing injuries. It is what you call "collateral damage." In any case, I know how well you look after your veterans, so they will be OK Joe.
Oh yes, I must not forget. My brothers also thank you for the $144 billion that you have lavished on our infrastructure. For example, without the generator you generously supplied for the dam we could not charge the peasants for their electricity. As for the schools you built for the girls they also make excellent storage depots for all that ammunition that you kindly donated to Al Qaeda and the cause. They asked me to give you a 'high five' (whatever that is).
The Chinese are tickled pink about this too. The roads you built for us just perfectly match up with the one they want to build to exploit our huge copper resources. Praise be to Allah (oh, and you too Joe): It's now all falling into place.
Sorry that your country now looks like the clown of the world, but that was not our fault. You have gone from Super Power to Super Joke since this January. You just have to look to yourself for that my friend.
So as I say, you have done us a massive favour, so it is only right that we do right by you in return. You can use the runway for the rest of the month: No charge.
Yours sincerely,
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar,
Chairman of the Taliban-Biden Friendship Society.
Our Motto: "The US Taxpayer: The goof that just keeps on giving."
Joe Biden : Come on man!
@@Mr.clean666 Was that his reply?
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar was released from prison in 2018 by Pakistani officials after pressure from the U.S. government under the Trump administration.
The Taliban thanks the orange incompetent no nothing POS for handing them their leader back.
Hi Peter,
Oh yeah, Donny is a 'baradar' too.
I just love these Americans!

Question must be asked:
Gen Milley, exactly WHO made the decision to abandon Bagram at 2 in the morning, and leave everything behind?
Biden also decided it would be a good idea to leave the prisoners behind.
Al-Qaeda, Isis and Isil, who are now armed and pissed off, were set free. Thousands of them...
Cowards running away
@@TheBandit7613 yep.
I have no idea why Ursula von der Leyen is on. The evacuation is down to national militaries and the European Commission means nothing in that.
At the end, either he is going to surrender or get killed.....Mark my words
Russia is backing Northern Alliance via Tajikistan. If he dies it will be rallying cry for his men to go o rampage. Taliban victory is short lived not because of northern alliance but it will be uprooted by people of Afghanistan with little help from other countries.
@@WorldCitizen-gz6fn you are lying Russia will never support Northern alliance
@@WorldCitizen-gz6fn Sorry but northen allience r going to lose
itl be a repeat of last time. masoud will surrender or die
@@SherKhan-rd9uw You may be right he may get killed but so can others and I dont see him surrendering.
Also Northern Alliance never lost. Even Russian couldnt overpower Panjshir with all its might from 1980 to 1985. Northern Alliance was later supported by Russia, Iran, Turkey, Tajikisthan, India and others.
Taliban on other hand was formed much later in 1990s with support from Pak and US blessings.
Taliban is only good at beating women , oppressing people and conducting terror attacks.
Afghanistan people have really struggled for decades and deserve peace unfortunately this is not going to happen.
Panjshir valley never fell , if the northern alliance regroups and the west funds them , they could turn everything around.
Very good delivery of news by the anchor
Why are they talking about Taliban. US is controlling the airport. US is setting up the barricade at the airport. US is deciding which plane can land and who get on what plane.

You do realize the the god of Judaism, Christianity and Islam is the same, right?
@@timsplanet2 no it's not. just like we are not the same. lol
@@timsplanet2 Well the origins of scripture are the same, but i would chose Jesus anyday over Allah. Not that I am a religious person in anyway. I am a student of theology and philosophy and can say quite seriously that Yes, the origins of the seeds of monotheism are the same, ie Yahweh-Allah...but if you had to on force of death choose a loving forgiving god then it would def be Jesus--not the old testament Yahweh/Torah nor the younger religion of Allah/Islam. Religion is really the cause of so many wars through out history. So much blood shed. There is nothing great about these gods.
Yes. May Allah bless them and protect them as they (The Taliban) do God’s work. God is great!
Two of the once great military powers surrendering to the Taliban.
You think the US isn't a great military power any more, and you think deciding to leave Afghanistan is surrendering?
Germany isn't a great military power since the end of WW2, and that was what we'd call a real surrender.
atleast russia is not alone now……
@@realthings5821 and that's changing
@Mr. Goldstein It's insane that after 20 years of occupation, people like you think it hadn't even been invaded.
Short answer: No
Long answer: they couldn't make it even when they were assisted by the US & NATO - now what when the US & NATO pulled their troops, major equipment, and funding?
Now Taliban first priority should be providing a Stable and growing economy......to afghan people,, World should help them...... They are not currupt people like Ashraf ghani administration.
Dam can't beat guys who were flip flop sandals , ak47s and Toyota forerunners with our advance technology - tanks, missles , helicopters etc.
In this report it seems that Afghans became poorer after 15th of August, lmao
They want new civil war. Give them a break.
they desperately need a new civil war to happen to use as a backhanded vindication for the last 20 years of death and mayhem, if there isn't one it means there never really was any real yearning for western style democracy to begin with...
@@johntowers1213 Taliban leadership not deserve sit there and gloat rest of the world. Trust me there will be attempts to break in and destroy the Taliban within. Assassination of top leaders and causing disruption is what CIA does best. It was easy for the Taliban to fight in the shadows, but now they are front facing
@Joop Haakma peace was there. If Taliban and these savege war lord's gave up their guns there would been a prosperous democracy running right now in Afghanistan. Over time with strong institutions, and foreign help. Afghanistan would be thriving.
Yeah! “The Resistance “ will do what the United States, NATO and the Afghan armed forces couldn’t do in twenty years. What a laugh!

Sure they do I bet they are shitting their pants about the resistance because they remember how the northern alliance stopped them in 1996.
