Afghanistan: Many Taliban recently freed from Afghanistan prisons have rejoined the jihad SEP 25, 2020 2:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER
What did the mainstream analysts expect they would do? Become stockbrokers? But this does not mean we should continue the failed attempt at “nation-building” in Afghanistan. The American troops should all come home, and efforts devoted to quarantining Afghan jihadis in Afghanistan so that they can’t wage their jihad outside of that country.
“Many freed Taliban prisoners have returned to insurgency; Abdullah,” Afghanistan Times, September 23, 2020 (thanks to Henry):
KABUL: Many Taliban recently freed from Afghanistan prisons have rejoined the insurgency, Chairman of the High Council for National Reconciliation Dr. Abdullah Abdullah says, bringing a US-Taliban deal into disrepute which then undermines the goodwill gesture by the Afghan government for freeing thousands of insurgent inmates.
“Honestly, I don’t know how many have rejoined the war,” Abdullah told the US Foreign Relations Council, “But I know that some of them went back to the battlefields and this is in contrast with their commitment in the U.S.-Taliban peace deal.”
However, he didn’t provide further information and any proof in regards. Abdullah also confirmed that a large number of these prisoners remain at home and denounce violence.
The February 29th peace deal that also laid out the American troops’ drawdown in Afghanistan included the release of 5,000 Taliban prisoners in return for the 1,000 security forces. The Taliban committed that the prisoners would not rejoin the insurgency
Jihad is all they know.
We were never going to drag Afghanistan out of the 7th century.
Capt. Reyneau has been summoned. And US Capt. Obvious. They should have this whole mess wrapped up in a few days.
What else are they supposed to do for a living? Learn to code?
Recaptured? These are some of the future leaders of the Afghan Islamic State and its armed forces.

I would hope that they implanted tracking devices in each one of them.
Imagine if we’d been told 19 years ago that we’d still be playing around with the Taliban in 2020.
