Taliban have started entering Kabul from all sides - Afghan interior ministry

Three Afghan officials have also confirmed Taliban militants have entered the outskirts of the city.

Kabul is the last major city that has not yet fallen to the Taliban.

Taliban orders its fighters to refrain from violence in Kabul

A Taliban leader in Doha has told fighters not to create violent scenes in the capital and allow safe passage to anyone who chooses to exit, according to Reuters news agency.

Kabul airport remains the only route out of Afghanistan.

However, women have also been told to move to protected areas - which seems in contradiction with orders to move in peacefully.

Hopefully it won’t be some virus that kills, .0001% of the people known to get it.

I was thinking it would be today, but only due to a gut feeling about it and clues like Biden going to Camp David insread of his Compound in Delaware.

9-11-2001 plus 20 years has to be a tempting date.

I wish we would give Afghabistan a parting “F-you”, like a few MOABs or even a tactical Nuke on the way out But we are too civilized for that.

It’s basically transfer of wealth and military equipment from the West to Islamic extremist (terrorist) groups.

Biden’s probably saving those for targets in northern Idaho.

China is important in this sudden victory. They have a border with Afghanistan, and their understanding with the Taliban is one reason why the US now judges it to be time to leave. If they stay, China can make things very hot, and it would be impossible to face off with China in the South China Sea, etc.

Biden also gives the entire terrorist muslim world a massive moral boost declaring 9-11-21 is his day of surrender. They couldn’t have asked for better propaganda.

Not sure why Liz Cheney would be smiling about this.

This chain of events is a humiliating rebuke for all those Beltway war-mongering globalists who have been pissing away money and lives for years in Islamic sh!t-holes.

0bama bin Biden dropped the ball bigly. They should have held “Pockistan” accountable for harboring UBL and for continuing to fund the Taliban for decades.

Of course, 0bama bin Biden were/are in the pockets of the CCP, which has closely supported the Paks and will shortly recognize another close ally in Talibanistan (formerly Afghanistan).

And they’ve had more generations of tribal consanguineous marriages than most, on top of all that.

The Dems will wear this one too. A glorious goat *uck and circle jerk worthy of the supercilious prigs who cheated in an election to hoodwink the people.

Biden did not even provide air cover to destroy the Taliban as they came out from hiding, gathered in masses to pillage and rape Afghanistan, beheading, raping and killing all male children as they go in the old Muslim way.

THIS IS NOT AMERICA. It is the tyt=ranny of liberal fascists like Joe Biden. A pox and cxurse on him and his bloddy 3rd Obama term.

Joe wouldn;t use air power because of the inhumane collateral damage? What an idiot.

The US military is ruined in the process.

HORRID!

And now our soldiers will die because of Joe’s idiocy of no exit plan.He sent in five thousand soldiers to aid and protect the route of US personnel ( liberal a$$hats who were singing Kum bye ya’for the last year and a half.)It will be a blood bath.And joe holds the bag and butcher’s bill.

No votes for Joe. Just make sure we get photos and viodeo of the horrible fight about to occur.

China will just genocide everyone in sight with no second thoughts. This is a direct descendant of the same government that has murdered around 75,000,000 going back to Mao. They have much better tech now, too. Ask the Uighers.
