Sad to see. As a cradle Catholic I have a lot of love and respect for Muslims eg differing paths to the same source eg God. The Taliban and their brutal ways of punishment eg stoning and amputation gò against moderate ways of Islamic thinking.

They said it’d be 90 days for Kabul to fall on Thursday. It’s not even been 90 hours and the Americans are flying B52s across to destroy their own equipment they won’t have time to extract properly. What a waste of resources, time, life, body parts and servicepeople and their relatives’ mental health the last 20 years has been.

Military from all nations and civilians have suffered so much emotionally and physically in fighting the Taliban. I sincerely hope we see peace one day around the world. Islam at its heart is trying to follow a just way similar to other religions but the Taliban enact a form of extreme thinking  that goes against the majority of Islamic views.

Why did we think this time (2001 invasion onwards) would be any different to all the other times occupations of Afghanistan have failed?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

You do have to laugh.

This afternoon Mr Raab broke his silence, tweeting: “It is critical that the international community is united in telling the Taliban that the violence must end and human rights must be protected.

20 years and billions of pounds/dollars, to be dismantled in a matter of weeks.

Many have tried to subdue the Taliban and all have failed. Think it's time the Americans stopped trying to be the world police.

The Taliban will now have even more weaponry to add to the piles they got from the Russians.
