Taliban fighters sit at the desk vacated hours before by Afghan President Ashraf Ghani who fled the country, Sunday, Aug. 15, 2021. The Taliban, in a shocking blitzkrieg, have swept through Afghanistan in less than a month, the 300,000-man Afghan army all but melting away in their path.
And what of the honor and property of Afghanistan's erstwhile occupiers, the United States of America? Today thousands of interpreters and their families await visas to the U.S., while Taliban fighters parade in captured tanks and humvees paid for by Uncle Sam. In the 20 years since September 11, 2001, the United States has spent more than $2 trillion on the war in Afghanistan. That’s $300 million dollars per day, every day, for two decades. Or $50,000 for each of Afghanistan's 40 million people. In baser terms, Uncle Sam has spent more keeping the Taliban at bay than the net worths of Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Bill Gates and the 30 richest billionaires in America, combined.

You forgot one thing: Trust! It’s a clear message to others that US can easily abandons you. Taiwan is so nervous. Japan and Korea may follow. So don’t blame that Southeast Asian nations have been embracing China for some times now. Time to say goodbye to US world domination?
为什么不说阿富汗战争给阿富汗人民带来多大损害，损失。他的代价建立在他国的痛苦基础上。
This is how close America 🇺🇸 come to be Afghanistan on 6 January riots, don’t take you democracy for granted, it’s very precious and people fought for it, Afghan people need to fight for themselves.
What a waste of time, money and most important lives...lives of beautiful human beings who's souls will be forever lost to time all 264,000 of them
I see great lack of diversity on Taliban's side. They should accept ideas like affirmative actions and critical race theories. LOL
Satan’s minions. I shudder.
