The State Department on Tuesday expressed concerns over the makeup of the new interim Afghan government announced by the Taliban, including the lack of female leaders and the past actions of some of those appointed to top posts.
A State Department spokesperson said in a statement shared with The Hill that although the Taliban “has presented this as a caretaker cabinet,” the U.S. “will judge the Taliban by its actions, not words.”
“We have made clear our expectation that the Afghan people deserve an inclusive government,” the spokesperson added.
The Taliban are going to transform Afghanistan into a Muslim caliphate where women will have no rights and destroy every piece of western culture in the next few years!
But in this whole hell, there is one thing that the Taliban are doing right and that’s removing the signs of the “woke culture” who believed or not it made it to the streets of Afghanistan.
The American government spend a lot of money to create more than 2,200 murals across the country addressing everything from the killing of George Floyd to every other “woke” culture event.
Many of the street art pieces have been painted over, replaced by drab propaganda slogans as the Taliban reimpose their austere vision on Afghanistan.
The mural dedicated to George Floyd, which has the words ‘I can’t breathe’ written in English and who’s death sparked Black Lives Matter protests in the US, was also removed.

A broken clock is right twice a day. Literally the only thing the Taliban has done right.
The images of workers rolling white paint over the art – who are reportedly paid less than $7 a day – were deeply foreboding for Omaid Sharifi, 34, Artlord’s co-founder who helped in painting the murals, who has been forced to flee to the UAE for his safety.
The entrance of the former US embassy in Kabul has been covered with a huge painting of the Taliban flag after it was abandoned by US diplomats on August 15 as the city fell to the militant group amid America’s chaotic withdrawal from the country.
The Taliban flag painted on the left wall in black and white is the group’s version of the Shahada Statement, which is a statement of belief core to Islamic tradition, reading: ‘There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is his messenger.’
On the right wall, is their Emblem of Afghanistan featuring a Quran.

Maybe we can put the Afghan “refugees” to work painting over all the George Floyd murals here.
BLM needs to fly over and confront this obvious racist act of intolerance...
Now Biden has a real reason to go back into Afghanistan.
Who cares about the Americans left behind, the Taliban defaced a George Floyd mural! Nuke ‘em.

Hmmm, have I misjudged them? Something I’ve been questioning due to their understanding of the fairer sex as it relates to politics.
I’ll stay on the fence with this bunch, for now.
A broken clock is right twice a day.
A broken 24hr. clock is only right once a day...
Pretty much my own bewilderment…
Flag on the Marine’s shoulder is incorrect.
misspelled fag.
WTF?!?!?
What was the point of this painting in the first place?
Who had put that up in the first place?
:)
Everyone has it wrong. Floyd’s painting there was not because of BLM or woke causes, it was in recognition of him being a valued longtime customer and distributor of the prime products coming out of Afghanistan.
Have to agree with them on this one.
same reason there was a rainbow flag at the embassy
Oh-oh... now the Biden admin will REALLY be pissed...
Yeah but there is that head chopping of infidels too. This is sort of like reading a sane article in the New York Times. You agree with it but it really doesn’t mean much since the slimes remains the same. It’s probably more jarring to our side than the left. They seem to be very adept at waving away any cognitive dissonance.
“The American government spend a lot of money to create more than 2,200 murals across the country addressing everything from the killing of George Floyd to every other “woke” culture event....”
I cannot even come up with a comment...
They should grill them to find the perp.
