the Taliban free to take over the country at their own pace - The US and UN have given the installed gov't all that was needed
to defend itself and create its own authority. It's their country, they must do it on their own.
Having no intel on how quickly the Taliban would reassert itself makes sense. The Afghan gov't would have made
an assessment on this and if they got it wrong - that's their battle to fight.
We're out - The only thing I hope is, all those who supported the US and UN during these long years, who were
promised asylum elsewhere do get out as promised.
