I think the fighting in Afghanistan will continue.

[Archae]

Taliban vs local War Lords vs ISIS vs who knows what else group jockeying for power.

And Abdul Average and their families will bear the brunt of the outrages.

1. It's what they do and have for centuries!

2. I think human beings will

always find a reason to be aggressive to the other.

I think you are correct

3. The Taliban wants China to build Afghan infrastructure, which means the fighting must be curtailed.

The Taliban also wants China to mine and buy their rare earth minerals. China is unlikely to do that with full blown
fighting in those mountain areas.

China must have a stable Afghan government for its Belt and Road initiative. Why would China pump large sums of money and public work projects into a country still war torn?

It is going to be interesting to watch this unfold.

4. Maybe you're right. My ? is, when will the Afgans finally be tired of the constant fighting,

and everything else that goes w/ constant war? You have the Taliban, the local drug lords, ISIS, Al-Queda, Pakistan, Iran, everyone (seemingly). And a significant % of the population is of the Islam faith...I don't know.

Maybe it's time for the Afghans to step forward somehow, and drive the process, perhaps the current events going on is exactly what's happening. Whatever one does, don't listen to the garbage rhetoric coming from republicans of all stripes, seemingly way too eager to readily blame Pres. Biden for all the sins in Afghanistan, an especially hard thing to do since Biden's only been in office since towards the end of Jan. 21...

For such an improvised geographical area, it does make one wonder why?
Everyone deserves a chance for a peaceful life, no matter where you are at.

5. I'd say it most certainly will

The same forces that were members of the Northern alliance fighting the Taliban before 2001 will be back at it

6. And none of them give a shit about females. In fact that's probably one area

they all agree on.
