Do you see that collapse coming now that the Taliban have total control? Because that was the situation before the US invaded. We should have smashed Al Qaeda and then left, telling them that from now on, we'll leave you alone as long as you leave us alone.

Saudi was the one who built all the madrassas that created fundie fanatics.
Since when is it the world's responsibility to save you from your superstitions?
They are totally free to do that now without the US attacking them. Hopefully the US has learned the lesson that Afghanistan is not worth invading nor "saving".
The problem is religious fanaticism. It doesn't matter what the flavor of your extreme fundamentalist religion, the cyanide Koolaid it represents will kill you. Don't think for a minute that extreme fundamentalist Christians wouldn't do similar stuff.
Actually, US occupation of Afghanistan was a huge waste of money. We should have settled for, leave us alone and we will leave your wretched bronze age asses alone. Fuck with us and we will kill you all.
If only this sort of dangerous nonsense were the purview of just fundie Muslims. Fundie Christians would and will do the same things should they gain absolute power.
Hughes was smart though. Unlike Elon "Phoney Starck" Musk.
