Even the Taliban Didnâ€™t â€œSolveâ€ the Woman Problem. They Just Manage It Intelligently.

People look at women in Afghanistan and think â€œwow, the Taliban sure solved that problem.â€ This is true insofar as â€œthey solved it as much as it is humanly possible to solve this problem.â€ But the reality is, if the Taliban had â€œsolvedâ€ the woman problem, they would not need to keep them in bags....

Look what they do to heritage. This video is available on BitChute and Odysee. Do you remember the giant Buddhas of Bamiyan? They were carved out of the stone of a cliffside in central Afghanistan more than 1,400 years ago. The Taliban blew them up in 2001. Here is the larger of the two, which... Read More

Taliban Cops Aren't as Bad as American Cops

Journalism needs a new rule. Are you reporting about a human rights violation in another country? If the United States commits the same offense, you should be required to refer to that fact in your article or broadcast. Criticizing how a nation treats its prisoners or responds to internal dissent implies that the behavior being... Read More

Government Failure Is the New Normal: Blaming the Spies Means Never Any Accountability

Philip Giraldi •ï¿½September 9, 2021

I find as a general rule that sweeping generalizations coming out of the media and punditry about anything are frequently wrong. As a former intelligence officer, I find it amusing to read articles in the mainstream media that blithely report how the latest international outrages are undoubtedly the work of CIA and the rest of...

Vetting Afghan Immigrants for a Religious Comorbidity (Islam)

Establishing a functioning centralized state in Afghanistan didn't work. Neither did the backend Deep State take in that country: Corruption runs deep in Afghanistan, but it's a decentralized affair. Even so, it would appear that the "U.S. government helped the country set up" a mini-American Surveillance State, namely, "the ability to wiretap and monitor phone... Read More

If Thereâ€™s Any Confusion as to Why I Support a ZOG Defeat in Afghanistan, I Donâ€™t Understand It

I have said clearly that I believe the defeat of the Zionist Occupation Government (ZOG) in Afghanistan, and the full surrender of the ZOG military to a band of brave boys from the caves, is the best thing that has happened on earth in decades. I do not think I am required to explain why... Read More

They made the same mistakes in Afghanistan they make at home. This video is available on BitChute. On August 15, Kabul surrendered to the Taliban. Helicopters rushed Americans out of the embassy, just as they did from Saigon when it fell in 1975. Twenty years of fighting in Afghanistan ended in a humiliation. There were... Read More

In Between Taliban and COVID

Does it take a genius to gather that the colossal failure of the USAâ€™s war in Afghanistan is identical to the disastrous â€˜war against COVIDâ€™? Itâ€™s certainly clear that it is pretty much the same people who devised the fatal strategies that led to a grandiose defeat in these two unnecessary conflicts. We deal with... Read More

American Taliban: Is Smashing Historic Heritage a Meritorious Act?

Kevin Barrett •ï¿½June 25, 2020

In March 2001, in the mountains northwest of Kabul, the Taliban blew up two colossal statues of Gautama Buddha. The act was almost universally condemned. But the Talibanâ€™s justification of historic vandalism makes at least as much sense as those offered by todayâ€™s American Taliban, who are on a nationwide rampage of statue-destruction. Here in...
