New York Times: The Taliban Are Back. Now Will They Restrain or Support Al Qaeda?
BRUSSELS — The United States and NATO invaded Afghanistan 20 years ago in response to the terrorist attacks of 9/11 by Al Qaeda, harbored by the Taliban.
Now that the Taliban are back in power, there are already worries that Afghanistan will again become a breeding ground for Islamist radicalism and terrorism, aided by new technologies and social media.
These are early days and experts disagree on how the Taliban may choose to govern, and on how big a threat they might become — or how quickly — even as the Taliban try to persuade the world they are different than before.
But there is little doubt that the Taliban victory is a huge propaganda boost for Islamist terrorism worldwide.

JFC. Over 600,000 Americans dead from covid. White right-wing dipsticks committing acts of domestic terrorism all across the country. Oh, and, the world is burning up due to climate change.
The last thing I'm worried about is Islamic terrorism.
Good analysis WNU. I agree with it. Thanks for the solid reporting the last few days, and always. -A

I'm sure you are for freedom, free speech, democracy of course. And, of course you have no concern about the opposite. You are very great.
PS: Sickness is very bad but has nothing to do with fundamental value.
The COVID death rate is inflated. The CDC is dropping it old test and wants to test for flu, COID, and one other virus, because they no longer want to conflate viruses. Things are so bad that in my metro they closed one, count it, one assisted living facility. The moved residents and consolidated.
The only people, who died 1/6 were Trump supporters.
You are a Chinese shill and not a vey good one. I see Uighur cellmates in your future.
As an American, you're going die from the garbage you eat, the drugs you do, a car wreck, lack of exercise, or lack of preventive healthcare.
No sane person gives a dam about international terrorists. Put down the Doritos. Stop going to the buffets. And go for a long walk.
When is the time to stand up to tyranny?
Just asking... really curious
They obviously do the slow boil of the frog thingy.. and obviously no one wants violence. But at what point do we say enough? Courts don't listen. Media lies. Politicians rob us blind and take our rights and indoctrinated our children and really harm them on top
.. when?
It's justified months ago, in my opinion, not violence, but resistance.. but we need a leader to rally behind
If you travel by air, you worry about international terrorists.
No doritos in the house for 6 months. I like nacho flavored doritos. Please Fed Ex me 2 cases worth. TY
Agreed. The original covid19, done through PCR was a false positive bonanza
The trick was to get you take the vaccines that are now already killing people, drug about 45,000 dead in just the USA
According to Harvard study from 2020, the number might be much higher@vaccination deaths and injuries as most people don't know about the VAERS database and do death and injuries from the vaccine go unreported, or worse yet are attributed to covid, whipping the population further into panic, taking more vaccines and more booster shots
In short, millions will die of the vaccines, that much we know already
The Harvard study went on to show that only <5% of vaccine injuries and deaths are reported
If we're at 45,000 now, it might as well be close to a million vaccine deaths+injuries now.. 400,000-600,000 of which are wrongfully attributed to covid
