JustTheNews: Stories emerged from Afghanistan on Tuesday of an anti-Taliban resistance movement forming inside the mountainous homeland of a legendary fighter, while the country’s former vice president declared himself the head of Afghanistan.
The resistance is centered northeast of Kabul, in Panjshir province, according to reports. The leader is Amrullah Saleh, who announced on Aug. 17 that he is the “caretaker president” after ex-president Ashraf Ghani fled Afghanistan over the weekend.
“As per the constitution of Afghanistan, in absence, escape, resignation or death of the President the FVP [first vice president] becomes the caretaker President,” Saleh tweeted. “I am currently inside my country and am the legitimate caretaker President. Am reaching out to all leaders to secure their support and consensus.”
Saleh appears to have been joined by Ahmad Massoud, the son of the legendary “Lion of Panjshir,” Ahmad Shah Massoud, a guerrilla commander who fought Soviet forces inside Afghanistan. The “Lion” subsequently fought the Taliban regime, and was killed in 2001. MORE
Don’t count on us to help, we have proven ourselves to be the worst partners you could have!
Finally – an Afghan war that I can totally support. More firepower to ’em! (both sides) May they wipe each other out.
P.S. – I’m breaking out the Orville Redenbacher’s right now.
Just in time to take the focus off of all the COVIDIOCY and Crimes Against Humanity involved with it.
I, uhhh, meant for that to happen. It, ah, was my plan all along
Yea well here’s where Liz Cheney and the rest of the NeoCons make bank. To predictable.
I honestly could care less if they blow each other up. All I honestly care about anymore are the Americans this evil government has left behind.
The best thing that could happen in this world is for Arab countries to be blown off the map.
its damn nice to see them fighting back.
and wouldnt it be great if those Afghans could rescue our people?
“I honestly could care less if they blow each other up.”
Well, what if they were only playing army? Taking turns laying on their backs while the other guys blew the hell out of them.
@Brad: That’s not how we played Army when I was a kid. Are you talking about the San Francisco version? LOL
😁
Vietvet
Rumor has it all those towel heads like watching Halmark movies and taking group showers.
Afghans should have been more involved fighting for their own freedoms twenty years ago. If it weren’t for the Bushs’, Barry/Xiden and Communists the majoity of Middle Eastern terrorists would be significantly weakened.
President Trump had them on their heels in no time. Now the left has turned the whole thing into chaos – as planned.
Another “war” manufactured by third workd opportunists and corporate progressive elites, wasting money and putting Americans in harm’s way. The objective was never to defeat terrorism, only to make a profit for the left.
If the covid sh*t doesn’t stop, we’re going to have our own civil war to deal with.
@Brad: Well, it doethent nethetharily make you a hateful perthon, you know…
😜
One can only hope this keeps the Taliban busy long enough for the American Citizens to escape. Something Hidin’ Biden and company should have though of, besides what flavor is tonight’s pudding.
Has Saleh let our government know how much money he’s going to need to get this show on the road?
We will not help any army who is not inclusive of all sexual orientations however individuals may self identify, does not include the rainbow flag and does not use the proper pronouns in the most woke sense.
Is that mullah stacy abrahmohamed………the TRUE winner???
DC working all the angles to get the defense contractors some more money.
Some ‘ting happen that sends troops back within a years time.
Bet.
