      It translated pretty easily for 2 decades. Then an orange chimp decided he didn’t care just like he doesn’t care about anything his country commits to and left. Then Biden just pushed it through while the Afghanistan government was unready and countless American sympathisers and supporters still had not been extracted just because he also doesn’t give a sh*t about promises his country makes. America leaving was inevitable. The taliban retaking was almost handed to them by how America decided to withdraw.

        There was no way the ANA would have held on for long after the US left, held on for a little longer, maybe.

        There was no way the Taliban wasn’t going to eventually win in some capacity.

      Do they? You’re more focused on trying to have a gotcha on the internet than displaying any empathy or interest in them.
