acts of violence from a illegitimate government is terrorism folks. I don't care about America or Isis. A bad guy fighting a bad guy does not male one bad guy good.
The Taliban is trying to pivot towards legitimacy and governance while not dropping their worst fundamentalist tendencies, and their enemies are worse than them.
The US military never should have set foot there. Things are far worse for it, which was hard to believe possible, and it's hard to see how anything gets better.
Can I get a tankie to make this headline make sense via a string of loosely-controlled racist jabs and assumptions free of any sort of evidence or conceptual truths please?
ISIS-K is behind the terrorist attacks in Russia. ISIS-K also wants to overthrow the Taliban and take over Aghanistan(and parts of Iran, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan. Kyrgystan and Pakistan).
Literally all the countries in the world are fighting or oppose ISIS. The US has probably worked with the Taliban and has hit ISIS-K inside Afghanistan. And it might not be official but if you want to hit terrorists, you need to cooperate with the Taliban because the US has basically no presence in Afghanistan atm.
Obviously for Russia it is even more important to cooperate with the Taliban, considering that ISIS-K hit Russia.
Cannot help but remember that the insurgence of ISIS is due to USA going there to "fight terrorism". So what is funny here is Russia "helping to fight terrorism". They just want to control the region by making a deal with a new, politically isolated government and perhaps also use it as leverage in world politics.
