Do you see that collapse coming now that the Taliban have total control?

I mean I did say they now have Chinese support where at the time they'd have been more or less on their own.

Because that was the situation before the US invaded.

Untrue. The pre-2001 Taliban saw fierce resistance from the North Afghan Alliance, among others, and didn't control all the country's territory. Compare to now where there's no meaningful resistance to their reign of terror.
