a stone cold fact of reality

Here's another stone cold fact: The greasers coming to power in Kabul are going to make things difficult for anyone accustomed to life by contemporary standards. They are doing so by applying 11th century usages of Shariah law.

Here's the caption to a current twitter video featuring Taliban checkpoints in Kabul.

Babak Taghvaee - œÀ¬À±º ¤±º²±¯µ - بابک تقوایی @BabakTaghvaee · 18h #BREAKING: #Taliban has set-up checkpoints in #Kabul inspecting all cars to make sure No women are out at night and also No women are driving the cars. They are also searching for ex-#Afghanistan government officials & military commanders.

You do not want to be a woman today anywhere within the borders of Afghanistan.

BTW what did the US occupiers do to protect young boys from the pederasts if anything? At least the Taliban rescued kidnapped boys.

Taliban outlawed pederasty

That certainly wouldn't fly with Bidet's Freak Show.

I have never lived in Afghanistan, but I've heard reports of US non- com's who have tried to interfere in local bachabaze or "playing with boys" customs. I hear that they only got in lots of hot water for their trouble. So there's that.

But having lived in Muslim societies of various kinds, I don't think that the primitive rural practices found in those places gets entirely extirpated by policy pronouncements of Islamic governments that put the gloss on things for GMO's and such. Hell, these boys might even suppress the opium trade for a time. But I wouldn't trust them farther than I could throw one of those sonsabitches.

At any rate, it's none of our affair. Should have kept our damned noses out of it to start with.

IOW the NATO occupying forces not only did not interfere but agreed to it in order to keep peace with the Pashtun and Tajik.

Trust the Taliban? I suppose not but they did keep their agreement with the US to suppress the opium trade for a measly $3,000,000.

That certainly wouldn't fly with Bidet's Freak Show.

No doubt the Taliban will take Biden's LGBT freak flag down from the US embassy.

keep peace with the Pashtun and Tajik

They have been swine for uncounted generations.

Surely the Taliban will tame their habits.

That flag would have been the first thing to go if they hadn't removed it along with the Stars and Stripes. ;)
