BBC: Afghanistan: The 'undefeated' Panjshir Valley - an hour from Kabul
Several thousand anti-Taliban fighters are reported to be holding out against the Taliban in a remote valley with a narrow entrance - little more than 30 miles or so from the capital Kabul.
It's not the first time the dramatic and imposing Panjshir Valley has been a flashpoint in Afghanistan's recent turbulent history - having been a stronghold against Soviet forces in the 1980s, and the Taliban in the '90s.
The group holding out there now - the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan (NRF) - recently reminded the world of the valley's strength.
"The Red Army, with its might, was unable to defeat us... And the Taliban also 25 years ago... they tried to take over the valley and they failed, they faced a crushing defeat," Ali Nazary, the NRF's head of foreign relations, told the BBC.

WNU Editor: Two of my cousins served in the Soviet military in Afghanistan. One of them was deployed in the Panjshir Valley, and as he likes to tell me repeatedly .... The two months that he was in the valley was the most dangerous time that he had during his tour in Afghanistan. The terrain was perfect for ambushes and surprise attacks.

100% dependent on whether or not they will allow their CIA buddies to continue trafficking heroin there. Even then, the price of supporting them might be too high to be profitable.
It's kinda funny and sad at the same time that people don't put it all together
The opioid crisis at home and how Perdew gained from Afghanistan and now pays out a few billion in damages to the US population THEY made dependent on the drugs the Afghanis supplied.
And oxicodone was pushed everywhere. In MSM, in ads on TV, news, magazines
THEY are the drug pushers, don't you get it? THEY are the war mongers, and they note push an unsafe drug on you that they claim that the FDA approved, not knowing that the approved vaccine is unavailable and what you get is the medically unapproved version that is biologically the same but you get it under the emergency authorisation act (read: need your money, am willing to kill you) under which you're declaring the pharma company legally idemnified.
It is NOT approved.
They're tricking you.
