Reply To: The Fall of Kabul – The Taliban Are Back?

[Archer Gerry]

The party in Afghanistan is JUST GETTING BIGGER 🎪🎈🥳

We have the Pakistani delegation AND the Chinese attempting to exert influence, India and Iran PLUS Saudi Arabia (shhhh no one in KSA thinks we know they want in? LOL), and let’s not overlook Russia hanging back in the background nevertheless wanting a piece of control over that region.

Its gonna be busy buzz buzz busy for a while in Kabul while the Taliban’s ego and horns start to mushroom under all that attention and they wrestle to polish themselves into statesmen.

The pressing question is will they become another Iran and North Korean regimes or will Saudi Arabia and other Persian Gulf states shepherd them into a more acceptable, marginalized state in the scheme of things.

The first thing the news media reported about the Taliban was their concern for funds and those from the Ghani regime who might have fled with a chunk of the one trillion pot of money purportedly spent by the USA “modernizing the country”😉  since 1979.
