All US troops to leave Afghanistan by September 11, 2021

And if the withdrawal indeed happens?
Afghanistan will evolve along a natural timeline like USA did. Without foreign power marching around.

This is great news and I think Biden will follow up on this. For sure his administration take do a review and decided after all to follow on the path left by Trump.
 
afghans will find another goat to milk . taliban cant live without jihad . afghans other hands can not live without aid . over all war is life line for afghan . peace means both terrorists afghan gov and even civilians have to work hard and earn bread and butter .
 
That's what our "Friendly Neighbor" thinks:


Listed below are some of the comments on the news items by our "friendly neighbors" . As citizens of a regional superpower their reactions are puzzling. Notice how many times the reference is to Pakistan.

Comments:

1.But Pakistan, Taliban and Russia are likely to fill the vacuum"

2.AFGN WILL BE DONATED TO PAKIS BY BIDEN... SATYA N MURTHY

3.Now Afghanistan will be under extremely peaceful people. May Allah save India from them.

4.Oh...9/11 ek Americi sazzish to get oil..sabko pata hai

5. पाकिस्तान को हैंडओवर करके चलें।
( Trans: Handover to Pakistan and leave ? )

6. Shame USA ! Shame coward USA ! If it were China or Myanmar the root of Jihadi Terrorism would have thrown much much long before . USA wasted too much money , too much brave soldiers loss - but achieve no goal of countering camel terrorism . What can coward USA achieve countering Great power China . Haaa...."

7. Return to the days of taliban means greater terrorism & regional instability.

8. Pakis are the real root cause of global terrorism which no one addressed since 9/11.

What is the price and availability of anti-diarrhea pills in India? 😊
 
I don't understand ehat Taliban waiting for. Just crank up the heat on these mfers.
 
I like the fact that they said 'all' , instead of the standard caveat of leaving 'some' for 'training purposes'.

Yep, we've been here before. Let's see if it happens.
 
Pray for Biden’s health to see this out. This is a pointless quagmire that only emboldens China and Russia. If the US pulls out it can be better able to deal with these nations.

They'll levae man they cannot face china while being stuck in a financial blackhole afghanistan.


Even more than money is the force structure, training, equipment, manpower, etc.

After ditching the Vietnam era COIN force, the US moved into a special forces and heavy conventional force, which showed in the Gulf War.

Expect any future conflict to be high tempo, fast and over in a matter of days, weeks at the most. Such as a skirmish with Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, China, or Russia.
IF the americans leave and stop interfering in Afghanistan then it means they are handing over Afghanistan on a platter to Pakistan.

or just leaving the platter, and the next round of fighting to begin. Expect the Russians, Iranians, and Indians to start sending massive amounts of Arms to their proxies.

The 3 and half page agreement of Feb 2020 was clear, all troops, contractors, civilians (spooks), all but a small standard embassy contingent.

Unofficially, everyone knows there will be locals that will feed information, but if the government in Kabul changes, in a year or two, even those sources may start drying up.

Lolz calling USA cowards while the mighty smelly sanghis outright rejected requests of ghani govt for indian forces in Afghanistan.
 
They might or might not. Don't rule our several thousand for training and advising...They've put too much into this for them to pack up and leave in the blink of an eye.
Actually you have got when they suddenly left what was then South Vietnam.
If they do, the Russians and Chinese will come in i.e. trade, rebuilding, greasing the Afghan government. The Taliban will hold sway and Pakistan would be relaxing.
 
The administration says it will keep sufficient forces in the region to react if al-Qaida or other terrorist groups re-establish training camps inside Afghanistan, but the dispersal of the terrorist threat meant it no longer made sense to keep a permanent force in the country.

“This is not 2001, it is 2021,” the senior official said. “And in 2021, the terrorist threat that we face is real and it emanates from a number of countries indeed a number of continents, from Yemen, from Syria, from Somalia, from other parts of Africa. And we have to focus on those aspects of a dispersed and distributed terrorist threat.”




Wait just where in the region? The region is completely shut off to them i.e. Russia's influence Central Asia. Joe's government doesn't get on with Pakistan, and no Pakistani government would allow it. India? Maybe, but I doubt it, it's too far away and the Indian people wouldn't want it.

Also it seems the US will flush parts of the Middle East and Africa with troops, looks like they're going to fight multiple insurgencies at the same time.

Chabahar. :lol: In all seriousness, NDS and RAW with CIA may make a play on Baluchistan.. Pakistan's guard must remain up.
 
I'll believe it when I see it. May....September what's the difference. Not going in May could blow up the existing deal with Taliban. Very confusing.
This is precisely what they want to happen. USA wants the deal to fall through.

9/11/21...I would have expected such theatrics from Trump more than Biden. What gimmicky nonsense.
