Do you think taliban will allow al-qaeda to piss US one more time?.
Yes.. it may allow.. remember the threshold for another US military intervention in Afghanistan will now be much higher than 9/11..So, if al qaeda based in Afghanistan, launches small scale attacks on US interests, there will be hardly be any consequence for Taliban.. US has had enough of Afghanistan..

Any prospect of a future United Nations peace keeping mission to Afghanistan..? India could send substantial troops as part of the mission.. and Keep Pakistan busy on the western front..
But they can't act for Indian interests, moreover Russians would veto

point to be noted is that the Taliban spokesman who is issuing these statements from qatar is known to be a charmer. he is known to give statements that are pleasing to western diplomats & audience.

After taliban settles down, we have to go by what shura council decisions are.
If they have to remain in power, they will have to msintsin rrlations. Those stone age governance will not be acceptable to Afghan people. If they try to do rhat, they will loose people's support. Going against west and India dill bring economic disaster only.

India is irrelevant here, going against India, India can't do anything that's why now we see India negotiating with the Talibans, UN eco embargo isn't happening... bloddy Chinese alone will make sure to buy the most of the resources along with the rest of the needed...

And sure the fucking sharia is coming back whether we like it or not....West or India can't do anything on it

and my take is that situation will be same as before on the ground, with better PR management presenting a rosy picture to outside world.


one of things that has been refined to the point of perfection at a global level in past 20 years, is PR management which when activated can present a picture to rest of the world completely at odds with ground realities.

We have been victims of such PR management by commies, we should know better. Don’t forget the hollywood level videos ISIS put out during their campaign in Iraq and Syria. with qatar on their side, for taliban PR becomes even more easier just like old days .

What matters is that Talibans now want to talk with India and west. They want to be power as genuine rulers and not militia controling the land.

Practically speaking, only two countries that can influence Taliban are Russia (100% independent), Pakistan to a certain extent but they are less capable now than when they started Taliban with Sam uncle and China to a lesser extent but they have no experience with this shit and will get hurt seriously bad....Iran seems to be not interested but with better capabilities overall than Pakis and India would also but we have no direct access unlike all other players and this will be the hindrance for us

Oh yes of course. They are adopting our BD campaign tactics of taking over the countryside and encircling Kabul to force a surrender.

Ghani will have to be evacuated or he might meet the same fate as Najibullah.

How come they are not impacted by Covid, at the rate it spread Afghanistan should have been wholly infected even with less dense pop?

My view is that Iran will be the biggest influencer in Afghanistan for two reasons:

*Iran's geographical contiguity with Afghanistan and
*Iran's cultural & linguistic influence over Afghanistan for many centuries.

By coming closer to the Pakistan the Taliban fears for one thing that Pakistan in future will try to blackmail them for making the Durand Line permanent and threatening to close down the border trading posts.

Afghan Taliban under the influence of US occupation might have become business savvy and nationalistic, who knows.

They will try to rule like a legitimate government and thus can acquire multiple funds and aids from all over the world to run the country in the process.

Talibans have given very positive signals so far. Their spokesman has said that they don't consider India as an enemy. They want Indian support and investment in Afghanistan. In theit new avatar, taliban tries to project themselves as a Genuine ruler of the Afghanistan rather than the militia controlling the Afghan areas. We should adopt a policy in which consider whosoever in Afghanistan as the rulling party as the friend of India rather than taking sides. China will try to enter into Afghanistan by money power and by bringing the t Afghan politicians. We will have to counter them with diplomacy, intelligence and friendship we have built in Afghanistan over the years. That will be the Trump card of the India. We should make sure that China and Pakistan does not exploit the situation. We can easily outs Pakistan from the Afghanistan nearly with diplomacy and supporting development project in the Afghanistan but China will be hard to counter. To deal with China, in Afghanistan we will have to take the the same way which we took to counter China in Balochistan and to some extent in Sri Lanka which cannot be discussed in open.
I believe It’s all part of there campaign to fool others. Taliban makes more than enough money selling drugs in the black market. Taliban hardly care about civilians most of the time It hardly matters for terrorist group like Taliban if civilians live or die unless it has some propaganda value to them.

There is nothing they make that world desires, only drug cartels might be attracted to them and they will spread terror via that channel in neighboring and far off places and export their thugs to other countries by smuggling channels. No one including Iran has deep interests but I think it should be split and absorbed into other countries based on ethnicities and this is where India will gain if we have courage to get the POK and get access into it.....Russia might just balkanize it depending on things
