From an Indian perspective again one of the glaring deficiencies that is showing up is the lack of Indian academia(not coconuts) who closely studied afghan war or US war in Afghanistan in detail.

all the theories and opinions floating on our SM from experts are mostly high level political science & IR theories, not detailed analysis.

Of course it could be the case that some academics are indeed studying this and those folks are not vocal on SM. even if such people exist, if they are not useful to India or government of India then what’s the point.

am just hoping that atleast any of the Indian army war colleges are studying this.

America has a habit of screwing their friends. Even Kissinger said about being friends with America is fatal. Everyone who relied upon America always ended in trouble.
Not so much.south korea,japan all are thriving countries who rely on uncle sam.the problem is when you rely on them too much then you are screwed up like southvietnam ,afghan etc

If they are sane Talibs will retain the afghan nation flag, people have poured their love to it for the last 20 years. Disregarding it surely alienate people if not we can clearly see their intentions.
as per yesterday’s press conference, taliban haven’t taken a decision on the flag since it’s been only 3 days and they haven’t formed the government yet.

Why CAA NRC was passed in 2019 giving citizenship to Hindus and sikh living in Afghanistan.
Why Kashmir was officially merged to india in 2019.

In 2018 when Donald Trump said they will leave Afghanistan our intelligence agencies already knew that fall of kabul would happen in 2 or 3 year.

It's not impossible, but everything would have to go just right for them.

Since Indians have been evacuated , is it now safe to give info on how they were evacuated? I won't give names, units or anything
I guess only embassy staff, diplomats and ITBP personnel have been evacuated, common Indians are still there.

But you can go ahead and give info, as already some news agencies have started writing about the behind the scenes of the evacuation.

This is truth . And verymuch applicable to india .


There is also a libro leftist propaganda going on for many years that national flag , symbols or anthem are bad and real nationalism is throwing garbage on dustbin , paying tax , demanding good governance etc ..

I agree .. But throwing away your emotional connection to the land ll have consequenses in moment of crisis . People ll run away at first chance ... Nation lies in mind of people .. its a emotional connection . Idea of nation comes first then all those development activities and moving forward .
