You see how regional powers are now looking to build ties with the new Taliban government of Afghanistan?

This is how you build peace in the region and end decades of war.

Its because the US knew they were losing the war, they wanted a way out, so they decided to allow the Taliban leaders to be released to pave the way for a relatively smooth exit for the US troops.

After this guy was released, not 1 single US soldier was killed in Afghanistan by the Taliban. The US were allowed to leave Afghanustsn by the Taliban.

And THAT is why Trump was a great US President.

Whereas his critics seem desperate for more wars.

It has been such a waste trying to help them build a better country, the minute we leave them to it they revert back to type.

Will always be the same. See South Africa and Zimbabwe for details.

pakistan there speciality is to

run with the fox and hunt with the hounds

logistical support to the taliban

intelligence help

weapons and military advice

this is the same country that housed bin laden in an army garrison town

20 years

trillions of dollars

over 5000 troops lost there lives

and the entire country collapsed in
10 days

when the Russians left

the country took 3 years to collapse

You have Iran and Pakistan helping secretly. And, now sensible countries like Qatar are also willing to help the Taliban with their airport. I think I also read somewhere that Turkey will also be helping the Taliban.

When you have external actors with their own agendas acting in bad faith, it becomes very difficult.
