Seven Die, Taliban Renames Country Islamic Emirate Of Afghanistan by Deltafirstson(m): 5:12am On Aug 17, 2021
The Taliban has renamed Afghanistan the ‘Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’ after its fighters swept into the capital, Kabul, a bustling metropolis of six million that has turned into a male-dominated city without police or traffic controls.

Aljazeera reports that scores of Afghans ran alongside a US military plane as it taxied on the runway and several clung to the side as the jet took off with Senior US military officials confirming to Aljazeera that the chaos left seven dead, as well as several who fell from the flight.

According to AP, the Taliban, a militant group that ran the country in the late 1990s, have again taken control.

The US-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 ousted the insurgents from power, but they never left.

After they blitzed across the country in recent days, the Western-backed government that has run the country for 20 years collapsed.

CNN reports that hundreds of people poured onto the tarmac at Kabul’s international airport, desperately seeking a route out of Afghanistan on Monday after the Taliban’s sudden seizure of power sparked a chaotic Western withdrawal and brought to a crashing end the United States’ two-decade mission in the country.

Meanwhile, at a special session of the UN Security Council in New York, UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, urged Taliban to show “the utmost restraint to protect lives” and demanded that anyone who wanted to leave the country must be able to do so.

US President Joe Biden also received a briefing by top security officials on the situation in Afghanistan, the White House said.

“This morning, the President was briefed by his national security team, including the Secretary of Defense and Chairman Milley, on the security situation at Hamid Karzai International Airport, and ongoing efforts to safely evacuate American citizens, US Embassy personnel and local staff, SIV (special immigrant visa) applicants and their families, and other vulnerable Afghans,” it said in a statement.

Good. The West should leave these people to practice whatever form of rule they wish. Everyone cannot be into democracy, everyone doesn’t want to be free spirited. The only thing is that they should make sure those people stay put in their countries and practice their extremist views. Now a lot of countries will welcome them as refugees and in 5 years, those countries will start boiling , suicide bombing will take over the streets of those benevolent communities.

This also applies to the Northern part of Nigeria. Why can’t the NE and NW form their own country and practice their faith the way they want without interference. People deserve to choose what they want to do with their lives.

They can't do all their destruction because the better south south and south east who are Christian's fueling this shithole may revolt
