Do you think the Taliban can be trusted to keep their committed word at least even a little like Joe Biden's believes?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

[hahahmm]

Maybe the people at the very top of the Taliban have some good intentions right now because one of their goals is to get international recognition and be treated like a full member state of the U. N. If they play the game right that will make it possible for them to openly sell mineral resources worth Trillions and build a modern nation in their own style.

BUT they don't have full control of all Taliban factions and they're in bed with terrorists like the 5k hardcore terrorists they released from prison. There's also lots of other foreign terrorists types from Pakistan in Afghanistan. The Taliban has zero problem with Al Qaeda and have said that recently.

I would trust them less than I trust Pakistan & Pakistan is a known backstabber and sponsor of terrorism.

[RolandCuthbert]

It is funny. At no time, can the Taliban be trusted. They can't be trusted now. They can't be trusted in the future.

Nor could they be trusted when this stupid deal was negotiated.

Anyone remember?

According to the deal, all 13,000 U. S. troops will leave Afghanistan within 14 months if the Taliban meet their obligations to America. Those promises are tied to fighting terrorism, preventing Afghanistan from becoming a haven for terrorists, denouncing terrorist groups, severing past links with the likes of al-Qaida and helping fight the Islamic State group affiliate.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

The Taliban are foolish to believe they can actually govern a country. Even more foolish (actually, stupid) are people who believe anything the Taliban says.

[StarOfEast89]

It's the failure of the system (in this case the empire) to provide for it's subjects, so populists win ground. Populists may or may not have real solutions or anything, but they really are satisfying like that exact shape and size plug that fits perfectly into a certain hole, like they were made for each other. In this case those populists were the talibans, they were supported almost unanimously by the masses.

[StarOfEast89]

As a completion, that's when populations are angry. It's probably why the soviet Union didn't do a great job taming them either. You tame hungry masses with food, you tame poor people with granting them riches and luxury, you tame proud people with titles and maybe even power and so on, and you tame bitches with diamonds. Fail to do that and you will have riots, which is what you deserve for being a cheapskate. Be generous and open your wallet wide, and the world will bow at your feet. Just pour dollar bills without holding back.

[Uptowngirl88]

@StarOfEast89 dude shut up no one cares

[DCooper]

What makes you think they care about governing a country? What they can do is execute whoever they want. Amd that's the reason they are considered 'in power'. Because when it comes down to it, too few care enough to lay down their lives to deny them that power, even when handed the opportunity. Much the same as the general populace in the US. A corrupt violent mob can walk in and take over, and for the general public, life just goes on, until it doesn't.

[Anonymous]

The ONLY one they trusted and who Trusted them was Trump. Slow Joe? NO!!!

[Darklydarkened]

Political or radical islamists never relent. They don't believe any values of modern world and they seek to undermine them to their very destruction.

Any politican who yammers about these bastards' commitments, promises, ''cooperation'' is just too spineless to say the basic truth to mask the current failures of his

[exitseven]

THey are flying around in our helicopters with political dissenters hanging from the landing gear, wearing our uniforms and carrying our guns, all donated by the Biden Administration. The taliban is already selling some of these weapons to Iran. What do you think will be done with that money? On Sept 11th I am hiding in my basement.

[Anonymous]

trust the guys who immediately started going door to door and executing their "enemies" who dared disagree with them? Nope. by the way, it's reported that they were using US M16s to do it, so I guess Biden gave them some pretty sweet weaponry as a going away present.

[FilmGuy93]

I do not share his optimistic sentiments, no. I find that illiterate cavemen who hang people from helicopters tend not to uphold the most humanitarian values.

[ObscuredBeyond]

They are little better than ISIS. Promises or none, nothing with them ever ends well.

[pjf1958]

The only thing that the Taliban will accomplish is murdering more innocent lives.

[DaveToo]

No. The Taliban are a bunch of men committed to dominating women, little girls, and any oil reserves they can find.

[Anonymous]

I do not believe they are NOT true to their word. My heart breaks for all the people who are stuck in Afghanistan.

[CaptainSmartass]

Nope. Personally, I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them...

Simples...

[Avicenna]

Trusted to give Corrupt Joe Biden a kickback? Yeah...

[lawnmath]

Their food reserves will end by September. lets talk in October

[ewok737]

No, their past actions are kill everyone that doesn't think like you.

[Uptowngirl88]

Yep and beheading people. Those folks are mentally unstable

[Surely]

Hell NO!
Maybe the fact checkers can tell us how many weapons the US left behind for the Taliban to use against the US on a future date.

[EnglishEuropean]

Biden is so full of s***. "The world will hold them to their commitments." Really?

[007kingifrit]

hah... no

this is why you need men like trump in office. loud and mean gets things done

[EnglishEuropean]

The same Trump who committed to pulling troops out of Afghanistan is May this year? Bravo!

[007kingifrit]

@EnglishEuropean the act of pulling troops out is fine. it was time to go BUT biden isn't feared and respected so they got aggressive with him in a way they wouldn't have with trump

[EnglishEuropean]

Trump is a bully and a coward. You think the Taliban respect him?

[007kingifrit]

@EnglishEuropean yes trump is a bully. and that's why they would respect him. fear is respect

[Tiptoetamm]

No I really don't

[karaspara]

Not a chance

[Exterminatore]

Nope.

[Wise4myage]

No Hell No.

[Anonymous]

Nope I don't trust them
