Wouldn’t it be strange if, after all this, we ended up allies with the Taliban? Well — have you considered Saudi Arabia?

Wouldn’t it be strange if, after all this, we ended up allies with the Taliban? Well — have you considered Saudi Arabia? | The bad news? America was totally humiliated and defeated in Afghanistan, we wasted countless American and Afghan blood and treasure over two decades, and thousands will die and human rights will suffer under the Taliban. It was a debacle that will register in American history forever. The “good news?” Going forward, we have a template for dealing with the Taliban — neutrality or even an alliance with them, because the realistic alternative to their brutal theocratic rule isn’t liberal democracy, but something far worse.

At least there is still one sane person in PoliticsToo who isn't ready to kiss the ass of these goat f**kers who do nothing but oppress women.

Oh I'm sure of that, there is always some who manages to justify the actions of ilk like the Taliban and their damned sharia law.

As far as the Taliban not liking ISIS, check this out:

That isn't the same one I saw on MSN but it gets the point across.
Apparently the Taliban didn't like that little strike we did against ISIS. Which it was really more of a political move than a retaliatory strike. Do a little miniscule thing to make it look like you're not quaking in fear of the Taliban all the while the C.I.C is saying we got to evac ASAP because the Taliban said so. Leaving weapons, leaving Americans and allies, and totally leaving a whole generation of Afghans brought up under freedom to the wolves.
To say that the Taliban is better than ISIS is just a flimsy way to douse the anger over the situation in Afghanistan. Afghan women are not fleeing ISIS, they are fleeing the f**king Taliban! There was a n Afghan lady mayor who was hiding in the bottom of a car to escape. Is that the way republicans / Trump supporters are over here? Sloth guy seems to think so.
No, I promise the Taliban and ISIS are in bed together. When has the Taliban ever been trustworthy? The Taliban said they would respect women, they are forcing them to marry their fighters and telling them to go home from their jobs. They are executing prisoners and people who worked with us. They are not good and the only dealings with them should be driving them out.
