See these clowns? They are zealots of the word kind masquerading as Islamic fundamentalists. They have taken over a country that is rich in minerals and are now selling them off to enrich themselves, and keep the most regressive kind of government imaginable alive and kicking. Thousands of good Afghani people will die. Thousands of Afghani women will be raped and enslaved. And eventually the so called government they are forming will descend into chaos, because these Taliban are now fishes out of water. Diplomacy, honour, decency, humanitarianism, cooperation...these things mean nothing to these people. We don't have to worry about defeating them. They now have enough rope to hang themselves. US drones will take care of the rest.
