I would’ve sent a tomahawk there.

Appearing in a Twitter video alongside other Taliban leaders, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the group’s cofounder, pronounced victory in the battle for the nation. “We have achieved an unexpected victory,” he said.

Highly indicative. The take-over of the country was so easy, even the Taliban are having trouble believing it.

Interesting.
U.S. republic went defunct fall 2020/winter 2021.

U.S. banana republic operating now close to peak suckage.

Maybe they will ally with Pakastan, take ships to Mexico, then march armed on the US border with T-shirts that say “BIDEN, LET US IN!”

Pakistani authorities arrested Baradar in 2010, but freed him in 2018 under pressure from the United States.

WTH??

Leftist spin doctors working overtime tonight. You can bet the MSM will be shoveling the line that this is actually a good thing. No doubt they’ll utterly make up some BS about long term stability, self-rule, or how the Taliban is such a kinder, gentler, changed group of fine fellows...

With only a 75000 fighting force plus some allies, the Taliban expect to peacefully and/or successfully if not peacefully, hold the country of 30 million together? HEH HEH!

Afghanistan will be returning to its history of being a giant cage match of Tasmanian devils all crammed in and fighting each other viciously!

I saw stories of The Northern Alliance beginning to reconstitute itself already against the Taliban.

A nation so-conceived long endured. But this “all men are created equal” frabajabba is dead white male European. It is so 9/10. Get with it, man. Now it’s dedicated to the proposition that Han Lives Matter. As for the guei, whether black or white, they’re equally irrelevant to the Han master race, unless they can prove they’re useful.

Keep an eye out for this year’s 9/11 and every one from here on out.

And Obama is cheering.
