Over 600 Daesh/ISIS affiliates, including Pakistanis, Central Asians and Iranians, surrendered over the past two weeks in Afghanistan, said the country’s Defense Ministry on Saturday.
Days after Afghan officials announced clearing the long-held bastions of Daesh/ISIS in the country’s east, along the disputed Durand Line border with Pakistan, the Defense Ministry said 18 more militants, accompanied by 24 women and 31 children, surrendered on Friday.
With this, the total number of those associated with the group surrendering surpassed 600, it said.
The ministry said the robust clean-up operation forced militants to surrender.
Very pleased with this.
FYI, this is NOT an excerpt. It is the entire article.
Let me guess....the Democrats want them to come here now?
Seems as though full story is untold. Wonder what full story happens to be ???
dems want them to run for office
Hi to you bump.
5.56mm
When are the executions?
Sounds like the Intel from the raids on Baghdadi and associates is being exploited successfully.
Maybe paychecks and supplies stopped all of a sudden
MSM Headline - Trump Afghan Policy Works!
/s
Yep
Hopefully, the savages were shot and dumped in a pit.
Urination sounds appropriate
You can't trust that scum.
Wondering the same thing. They should be tossed off tall buildings into a dump truck full of pig shi’ite and dumped in a pit and buried.
We’re any pig parts or pig’s blood utilized ???
Yup.
The biggest issue with the Afghan government isn’t corruption. If government corruption alone guaranteed successful revolts, the world would be in a state of permanent revolution. During the Vietnam War era, the North Vietnamese fielded the best-organized army in its region. It defeated Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge in weeks, and could probably have overrun all of Southeast Asia from Thailand all the way to Indonesia if the Soviets had provided them with funding and equipment.
The Afghan problem with the Taliban is pretty much the same as the 50-year Colombian problem with FARC, compounded by the fact that the Taliban have both a safe haven across the land border with Pakistan and a guaranteed supply of funding from Pakistan’s government, something that began with sainted late Benazir Bhutto. There is nothing special about the Taliban’s prowess other than the fact that it is somewhat less fractious than the Afghan government, because the basic Taliban premise is Pashtun supremacy. But the Afghan government is becoming more stable, as the various ethnic and religious factions start to accept the rules of democratic government, and begin to settle into their respective places under these arrangements.
Absolutely right on.
They don’t hate America enough to run for President.
“Maybe paychecks and supplies stopped all of a sudden.”
I was thinking along those lines. They needed a new source for handouts.
