Kicking out savages to replace them with your own savagery isn’t the win you think it is.

And “white pipi”? Could you try any harder to sound like a 4Chan alt-right troll?

It's not their "own savagery" the Taliban aren't originally from Afghanistan. They were originally from Saudi Arabia and were part of the US effort to subvert the Soviet invasion.

  1. The Taliban came after the Soviets were kicked out of Afghanistan, and were not part of the original Mujahedeen. They, in fact, were instrumental in overthrowing the fractured Mujahedeen-led government in the 90s.

  2. The Taliban were financed by and originally based in Pakistan, not Saudi Arabia.

  3. The US never supported the Taliban.

  • Asserts the Taliban were Saudi, not Pakistani in origin
  • Thinks the Taliban existed in the 80s and fought the Soviets
  • Does not understand the difference between the factions outside of the Northern Alliance and the Taliban
  • Thinks that religious radicalism was new to Afghanistan in the 80s rather than something that had been long-established in the country since at least the 19th century
  • Apparently is incapable of reading the wiki articles they copy and paste
  • Thinks everyone else is uninformed

lmao
