The Taliban/AFG situation is not the Wests problem

So why are the west so invested?

Every news outlet has this news plastered all over.

Suddenly women's rights in Afghanistan are of major concern for these God-sent humanitarians.

Stay the phuck out of the middle-east/Asia and concentrate on yourselves where feminism, LGBTQ and other isms are decaying your societies.

The Taliban had 0 to do with 9/11; the man who was is now dead. Heck most Afghans are okay with the Taliban taking over hence 0 resistence.

The people of the West really need to learn to think for themselves and take back their power by refusing to bend to their media outlets/elites.

Imagine if tens of thousands of taliban were on US soil and the US was in legitimate danger of falling.

The people enlisting in the military would double and we would have the biggest draft the world has ever seen. The Afghans did give a fuc

Lol I guess you arent aware of the demographics in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan is made up of many tribes many who are extremely vicious. People in Afghanistan especially the villagers/tribes DGAF about being beheaded for their cause/tribe. The only time a people in Afghanistan wouldnt fight back is if they WILLINGLY accept the rule

If you had any knowledge of history you would realise it is our problem. The west has been funding and supporting the extreme elements in the country since the ****ing 70s.

This is a situation where it is our fault.

Its the Wests fault for the vacuum and chaos in that country however it doesn't give it the right to prod and sit on their high horse and dictate how they should be ruled. STFU and sit down and worry about yourselves for once.

I agree. Same with Iran and loads of other lands. The mistakes of the British empire has permanently ****ed things up. But the Americans are making things worse.

We have the right to protect those who want to escape especially the women who have finally had a taste of freedom. We also cant let the area turn into a hotspot of terror training camps

Who gave you that right? The west needs to pull the stick out of their asses. You arent God-sent, you have your own flaws and problems that need fixing. believe it or not, most people are okay the way they are, they dont need changing.

Just LOL @ thinking boots on the ground wont breed terrorist camps. What do you think has been happening for the last 20 years?

The West should try, for once, to stay out of peoples issues and see how that pans out.

Some areas/lands are just hopeless and the west can't help. Afghanistan is one of those regions, history has proven how hard it is to govern such a place, every world power that tried failed.

And we all know most refugees from that area won't be women and children but men that will destabilize the west even more, and enough countries between western europe and Afghanistan where everything is safe. Let's be real, if they go all the way to england, western europe they're economical refugees.

The real change will have to come from the afghan people themselves, not from us in the west.

I never said boots on the ground did i? If you **** things you have to try and help out those in the area that have been negatively effected by the actions i.e women.

Lots of ways to do that - not boots on the ground.

Okay and what do you suggest then to help them? Send food and other aid that will get confiscated by the taliban?

Alot of the men that have been airlifted already where those who helped our troops there. I argee most of the men who just want to leave can be transported to safe zones near ala qatar/saudi.

The women/children and those en who helped our efforts plus the few technical males e.g teachers, translators etc should be allowed to come to the west.

I just feel that we shouldn't just leave them. This **** is on us. I feel terrible watching the scenes in Kabul

Yes I agree the way the US left there was a complete disaster and showed Biden's incompetence to the world.

Trump was right about leaving that place but it would never have happened like this under his governance.

ISIS was destroyed under Trump, Biden's not even in office for a year and already made the biggest international failure the US has seen in over 15 years.

We gave them triple the numbers and a god damn Air Force and they surrendered in a few days.

No, we shouldn’t help them in anyway anymore

Trump himself said as soon as we leave everything is going to blowup again. There’s nothing trump could have done to leave any better. Even if we wiped out the taliban someone else would come up shortly after we leave and the Afghan army and people would again surrender.

Come on now, even the average miscer would've handled that situation better. It should have been a slow transition of leaving, not abrupt GTFO there like Biden did.

The evacuation was completely botched. Should've evacuated the people i mentioned first while we had our military presence.

Plus the intel was just dreadful.

We shouldn't have put in and propped up a corrupt government to start with. The soldiers never fought back and for good reason - risking their lives for a government that was corrupt and ran away as soon as **** hit the fan. With a boat load of cash to boot.

These incels have lost families and are armed and mad. They're probably more aware than we are that Israel has us killing each other. The Chinese are removing their Muslims from history as we speak.

This. It was always a hopeless situation. I would advise everyone to read up their history for a bit, check wikipedia.


And good luck to the chinese, will see how they will handle it.

IMO They are going to try and take a business approach but they gotta be careful due to their own extremist situation.

Taliban delegates already went on a visit to China.

China will take the neo colonialism approach like they do in Africa and other poor nations with their "belt and road" scheme. Will see if this approach works long term. But I doubt the west will set foot there again anytime soon
