Kabul should go down in history as a synonym for American military incompetence (and probably will.) In short, the American withdrawal (whilst noting American military should have never been there to begin with) from Afghanistan should have been an incremental withdrawal with Kabul at the center, with the city fully secured by shrinking a perimeter of American combat forces from across Afghanistan until final departure.

This simple and common sense approach should have allowed 1) all American & other foreign citizens better opportunity to evacuate Afghanistan, and 2) insured safe haven for non-Taliban aligned Afghans with ability to keep a Kabul avenue open to the historically anti-Taliban Panjshir valley to funnel dissident Afghan forces, together with American weapons and equipment. No hostile force, to now, has ever militarily taken the Panjshir valley from the Afghans, including the Taliban. Thus armed and prepared, the Panjshir valley stronghold’s proximity to Kabul should have enabled anti-Taliban Afghan forces of all ethnic groups to secure the city (and its critical resupply infrastructure that is Kabul’s airport) and surrounding districts upon the American departure.

Meanwhile, in the paradox of insanity created by the Americans, the USA freezing and shutting off all Afghan assets and funds to the Taliban (with hints of further hostile acts to come) only increases the possibility opium farming will flourish to fund these so-called ‘Islamic’ militants (noting Islamic fundamentalism is an aberration, there is a philosophically beautiful Sunni Islam that is Sufism) and the CIA & MOSSAD will be right there to do ‘business as usual’ (will remain at the center of international narcotics trafficking, a so-called ‘black budget’ source of mischief.)

Finally, the corporate boards that run the USA using the Bernays ‘public relations’ model of psychological operations sees the criminal Covid psy-op pushed aside for a few weeks while they rethink their information war against common Americans; and their minion Counterfeit News Network (CNN and ‘friends’) gets busy pushing ‘Demented Joe’ aside for their real 2020 election choice of ‘incarceration queen’ Kamala and you all should know the rest of the story (likely a fascist repeat of history on steroids.)

Now you know why this blog has a specific category for “Morons” (that would be criminal morons.)
