America’s reign as the sole global superpower will be marked from the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 to the fall of the US Embassy in Kabul on August 15, 2021.
We gave it away.
Such Drama.
Watch this:
The US will meet with the Taliban and propose continuation of national development projects with continued GCC and Western funding and participation. The Taliban will accept. They do not want to be assisted by Chinese communists who are atheists.
The Afghan government was from a small, urban segment of Afghan population. It was not broad based or representative of Afghanis as a whole. The Taliban is much more so and has been included in GCC-hosted regional political and development talks for 12 years.
We should work with Qatar and flip to supporting the Taliban and continuing development which will keep China out. The Afghans and Qataris will support this as they do not like atheists and particularly communists.
Golden opportunity here.
Heck, send Trump as an envoy. He’ll seal the deal.
