Afghanistan: Seems Panjshir Valley has fallen this time
Many reasons.
Some include, not in order:
1) United States equipped Taliban with same gear Americans use. Enough for an entire Army. Or two.
2) The “Lion of Panjshir” is gone. Killed by Taliban just before 9/11 attack. His son is westernized and is a Kitty of the West. Similar happened to Gurkhas. Old school Gurkhas raised in Nepal have in many cases been replaced by Westernized ‘Gurkhas’ who were raised riding in war buses to warm schools, not climbing yak-hair ropes over deep gorges and swimming across near-frozen rivers to gather medicinal plants growing in places only birds and goats can venture. Afghans in Panjshir valley are no longer led by packs of lions. The lions made money packed up for Dubai, and other running-water places.
3) Taliban are not Kitties of the West. They are old-school, Afghan fighters, now more experienced than ever. Their parents were born and raised fighting in Afghanistan. They were born fighting in Afghanistan. Their children are Afghan fighters. They have been pulling children from their homes as cannon fodder for the Panjshir Valley campaign.
4) Pakistanis, including their Air Force, Chinese, and Americans, all have sided with Taliban.
There is more, but that’s enough.
America has it’s own fight brewing.
I should be back in America today. Admin, then forward. Then back to America.
Thank you for all:
