The Taliban Just Captured Their First Major City in 14 Years | The Daily Sheeple



It should be abundantly clear now that our military’s mission in Afghanistan is following the same exact path as their mission in Iraq. After we steamrolled through their country, we were met with a prolonged resistance movement that is now slowly retaking lost territory, as our military tries to make its exit without losing face.



While there is still a small US military presence lingering in Afghanistan, we pulled out of that nation in much the same way that we pulled out of Iraq. We managed to suppress the insurgents long enough to claim a victory, and then left behind a wildly corrupt system that could not protect its people from the crazies in their midst (or in the case of Iraq and Syria, the crazies that we trained and funded). Now these people are overrunning the ill-equipped and morally bankrupt forces that we left in charge.



Over the weekend, the Taliban managed to deliver a devastating blow to Afghan state forces by capturing a major city in the northern province of Kunduz. The attack completely overwhelmed security forces, and caused U.N. and Afghan officials to flee the city.
