You guys have it all wrong. When the news says something, the reality is obviously going to be the opposite. The Taliban are local heroes pushing security and local values. They are the MAGA of Afghanistan.
-
They eschew alcohol, tobacco, porn, and drugs
-
They hate liberals and Zionists
-
They don't allow their women to act like whores
-
They have zero [open] homosexuals or lesbians, and no trannies
-
Taliban are enemies with ISIS. Usually when people are enemies they have polar opposite beliefs.
-
Trump met with Taliban to make agreements

US Military working with Taliban: The US Is Helping the Taliban Fight ISIS, CENTCOM's Top General Says - Mar 2010 - "Gen. McKenzie turned heads with testimony about 'very limited support' for an enemy who is also an enemy of an enemy."
-
Unlike the Deep State and CIA, the Taliban hates drug hustling - "The Taliban enforced a ban on poppy farming via threats, forced eradication, and public punishment of transgressors. The result was a 99% reduction in the area of opium poppy farming in Taliban-controlled areas, roughly three quarters of the world's supply of heroin at the time."

Taliban bans the Covid-19 vaccine
Their treatment of the fairer sex and non-muslims nullifies all of your points.
If you were a woman, you would say that? So you think it's justified what they do to women? And abusing children? You should go live there if it's so pleasant. They're barbarians. Enough said.
I am a woman and in my opinion, it's none of our business. I may not like it but it not my culture, religion, or country. If the citizens of that country don't like it, they need to step up.
Women and children need to step it up? With what? They have no weapons. Explain how they can do that? Because I know very well that the men think it's perfectly okay to treat women/young girls like they do. I'll never stand in support over that. Some people have to really endure some of these horrible situations to really understand the big picture.
So what would your suggested solution be? Again, I do not like seeing what the woman are going through but I also understand I am looking at the situation through the eyes of an American woman. We All need to be cognizant that our perception of reality may not align with other peoples perceptions of their reality.
The strawman is strong here.
The men need to step it up!
The population of Afghanistan overwhelmingly supports Sharia law. If that's what they want, let them live under it.
Yea I can't believe the women and children aren't stepping up and fighting back!
Oh wait, I know why; it's because they are being violated and abused for failure to meet the Sharia standards, let alone for fighting against them.
Only a deranged leftist thinks that women and children are on equal ground as far as physical fighting is concerned.
No deranged liberals feel it is their place to force their morals and values on others.
Taliban look after their children. They are not pedophiles, despite what the "News" might lead you to believe.
Is it justified what Jews do to baby boys?
Anteater alert ^^^
So.....two wrongs make it right? That's seems like a 'logical' argument. 🙄
That's not an answer. Are Jews savages?
What might that be? You talking Circumcision?
Not sure about that. Maybe that's a pack of lies.

"The Taliban-produced magazines encourage women to carry out a traditional role in the home and support men rather than to be violent and commit jihad themselves. Tahrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and ISIS encourage women to be violent - to pick up arms and fight. The magazines encourage women to leave their husbands if they don't support jihad, even without permission."

A Taliban author and journalist said - "They're very proud of the way they treated women and education and the rest of it."
Forgot to add that they are pretty much all pedos (bacha bazi) and don't want women to read, write, or work
The practice of bacha bazi in its modern form has been around since the 19th century and wasn't banned until the Taliban came into power in 1996. It carried a death sentence, although often the boy was charged rather than the pedo. Once the Taliban was overthrown in 2001, there was a resurgence of bacha bazi. So it sounds to me like the Taliban is against pedophilia.
This is what the Taliban are about! Barbarian POS
Quite possibly,they are better than the clowns in america running the show.
A better question may be "are they cooperating with Trump or not?". They may not be intentionally cooperating which also implies they are not good guys or bad. Its all about what is in their best interest which could have been calculated by Trump when he met with them. Their level of cooperation will be throttled by what they have to gain or lose.
Right now, I put the Taliban in the same category as Chris Wray. Do I trust him to do the right thing? No, but I sure hope he does something decisive in the future that allows us to consider him a white-hat. We may never know.
Definitely the more likely explanation imo
Taliban is a MAGA?
FBI cia shill!
They’re going door-to-door and confiscating everybody’s weapons. Sure! They are MAGA!
Ggeezzz
Good - bad is a spectrum. I suspect they are much closer to the good end than we have been lead to believe.
The taliban is evil. Next.
Also missing that they have buttsex with each other.
I think they have buttsex with their goats!
They do. I've seen the FLIR videos.
Yea someone can do and believe in a bunch of things I agree with. but that doesn't necessarily mean that we are friends, or that I should rejoice in their victories. I doubt the Taliban will maintain any "welcome" they have in Afghanistan, and I doubt that they will uphold the God Given Rights for all who are in their temporary "jurisdiction". They have said themselves that they are Muslim, and we know what Muslims think of God Given Rights...
