Nobody really nows. Certainly not those who were talking about the mighty ANA, special forces, la la just last week until they all hid faster then my penis does when exposed to freezing water.
I want you to keep something in mind. The last few weeks turned everything the western talking heads, star studed generals, experts, governments, media and members here said on their heads. So please spare us the prognosis now being churned out by WSJ and other rags. The Taliban will have these...
The irony of this image. Few years only western media was awash with reports on how Pakistan was falling apart. Obama was getting no sleep worrying about Pak nukes falling to Taliban hands. Indian media cried 'failed' Pakistan. Now they are all running to the 'failed' capital.

I have heard it from multiple media. Witnesses stated the firing came from above - American guard tower. Doctor in hospital stated he had many patients with bullet injuries on the upper body at angles suggesting the firing came from above them. Of course this story will be drowned in sea of...

Clearly non of you bothered to listen to the link. India is kneed deep in use of proxies, exactly in equal measure as Pakistan so don't play that "we don't do" card.
When I get time I will list the contents of the link. The only essential differance is India has managed to build a narrative of...
Ankara will be required to recognise Taliban as legitimate government of Afghanistan
Turkey and Qatar will jointly operate the Kabul international airport with the former providing security through a private firm, Middle East Eye (MEE) reported on Saturday citing sources.
