I don't need to tell you what's going on over there, I'm certain almost every one has watched it. People compared it to the war in Vietnam when the people of Saigon started scramming to the US embassy for evacuation..
Honestly, I'm apalled and speechless. It scares me because the big bully country has gotten closer to our territory within a matter of years. If ever there's going to be an invasion to my country in my life time I will choose to fight than leave. This is my home and I will fight for it.
In my opinion, the country US is already broke with so many tax payers money wasted on so many things. They can't stay there any longer. Maybe their old ways of colonization is really done for even though most people fought against terrorism.

Its a big war game is my thoughts on it.
Manipulation and the powers that be and the little people suffer because of it..everywhere.
You are a good man to fight for your home.

They've actually talking about withdrawal for a long time now @franxav but this was definitely poor planned exit stragedy.

The situation is complex in Afghanistan but the Elites and other folks in Afghanistan are themselves to be blamed a lot for the turmoil.
Sadly that country has become a playground for many other countries such as US, Russia, China and Pakistan.
But some impact would also concern Iran and India as well.

Yet those who have stayed have to put up with a lot of atrocities and repression.
May be things might be better than 1996 to 2001 but we cannot be sure.

But the question is who would aid them this time - Russia/US or someone else?

I pray you will never have to face those bullies. You are correct about the US getting low on funds for foreign countries and in my opinion I would rather not have anymore of my countrymen die over there.
I wish there were a way for the whole world to work together to put a stop to those bullies but we both know that will never happen, most countries seem to think the US is supposed to do all of that.

Hello @rebelann That should have been a multi world cooperation. Sadly, the people's themselves didn't hold it off long.

Afghanistan should have done better in the previous years but sadly they didn't. I hope they can Unite and uproot the devil taliban
