If you are in Kabul and deciding to rebel against the Taliban,
remember that they are now probably the best armed and equipped
militia in the Middle East, thanks to the training and equipment
provided by the USA.
What? You mean you really thought the USA training Afghan soldiers
meant that they wouldn't fight as Taliban soldiers? Many were already
absconding and joining the Taliban while training was in progress. It
was all a corrupt scam from the beginning, covered up from the US
public.
