Afghanistan has border police? How racist? In any case, the Taliban is trying to establish a Sharia state in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan: Taliban say they’ll target radio and TV stations that broadcast anti-Taliban announcements

Afghanistan: Major Taliban sanctuary and weapons storage area found in mosque

Afghanistan: Taliban coercing, beating locals to allege civilian deaths in Kunduz operations

Afghanistan: Imam accused of recruiting hundreds into the Islamic State
What? An imam? How could a man who has dedicated his life to understanding Islam properly and communicating it effectively get the idea that the Islamic State had anything to do with Islam?

Afghanistan: Taliban “committed to all rights of women that have been given to them by the sacred religion of Islam”
That is, hardly any. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts […]
Afghanistan: 1 killed, 3 injured as Taliban attacks wedding ceremony
They regard their foes as enemies of Allah, so killing them on joyful occasions is all the better, as it serves to “strike terror in the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60). “1 killed, 3 injured in Taliban attack on wedding ceremony,” Pajhwok, January 19, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace) LASHKARGAH (Pajhwok): One individual […]
Germany deports Muslim migrant with long criminal record, Afghanistan sends him back to Germany
He has “a long criminal record” and is “mentally ill.” Whatever the truth of the latter, “based on the agreement we [Afghanistan] have with Germany, vulnerable people cannot be deported to Afghanistan.” And so that’s that. Germany now has a responsibility to shelter Afghanistan’s criminals and mentally ill. Danke, Merkel! “Afghanistan sends deported asylum-seeker back […]

Hugh Fitzgerald: Why Are We Still In Afghanistan? (Part Two)
An American decision to pull out entirely could have two very different effects. It could demoralize the Afghan forces, who appear to think they cannot defeat or hold off the Taliban without American support. That could lead, some fear, to a complete Taliban takeover. But I don’t think the Taliban is eager to run most […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Why Are We Still In Afghanistan? (Part One)
The withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria, as well as the recent recommendation from General Stanley McChrystal that we simply continue to “muddle along” in Afghanistan, brought to light again what a pointless and tragic muddle the whole exercise has been. The longest war in which American troops have fought is that in Afghanistan, which […]
Afghanistan: Jihadis blow up car outside government building, storm the building and take civilians hostage
This is happening while U.S. troops are there. What will happen when U.S. troops are gone? This. The endless Afghan misadventure is a fool’s end with no clear mission, no goal, no purpose, no end point. The U.S. troops should come home, as they should have years ago. “Militants storm government building in Afghan capital, […]
