OK,
to some extent the question is non-sensical. I am unsure the country
ever left the toilet. That being said, the current government does
believe in treating women like human beings and officially disapproves
to selling 12-year old girls to 60-year old men.
The
talking heads assert that the U S Intelligence Community believes that
the current government of Afghanistan will fall in six months of the US
pulling out. Right now it is looking more like six weeks. The Afghan
army is surrendering facilities without firing a shot and the
goatfuckers are taking over a LOT of US paid for weapons and equipment,
which will allow them to take over more and more and more of the
country.
Personally I don't
give a shit about Afghanistan. Alexander couldn't hold it. The Brits
couldn't hold it. The Russkies couldn't hold it. We didn't even try to
keep it. We tried to drag the country, kicking and screaming, out of
the 12th century. With indifferent results. I think it is a damn shame
that the goatfuckers get off on treating their women like property and
their girls like dogs, but it isn't my business. What I do care about
is that the goatfuckers do not decide that they must export their brand
of stupidity to the US.
Trying
to impress western democracy on a place like Afghanistan is a waste of
time, money and blood. With a bit of luck their own people will, at
some times, scream BULLSHIT and deal with the issues themselves. Until
then let them have their goats. If they cause us grief, turn the
country into a parking lot. For much of it, it would be an
improvement.

Afghanistan has always been run by tribes and territorial war lords. The Taliban is already filling the void. The opium trade will flourish. The border crossings are already being run by the Taliban and Afghan troops are fleeing. We spent way too long over there and I believe it was all for nothing except to justify a large military budget. I suppose that means we won't be teaching CRT to the locals now. Fuck that place.
