“The world doesn’t really know who the Taliban is and what they do.”

“The international community … and every mainstream media outlet in most countries, and their diplomats, the governments … everything they say, is an attempt to normalize the Taliban.”

“Don’t blame … the common (person) … it’s the governments.”

“Not every country or every superpower is always wrong or always right.” And this ability to recognize and adapt to ever changing dynamics is pivotal for helping Afghanistan regain its rightful standing enjoyed in the international community before back-to-back invasions and interference from other countries.”

“The Taliban … were just fighting ‘occupying forces.” This narrative was promoted throughout Afghanistan over the past 20 years and continues now.

Unfortunately, the non-Muslim world does not understand that the Taliban and allied religious extremist operatives are not representative of true Islam. “Since when did Shi’ite Muslims leave the Fold of Islam, and the Taliban have exalted status…?”

Social media platforms emboldened the Taliban to exalt abnormal levels of cruelty and violence.

“The international community at large has betrayed us. Afghanistan has been forgotten.”

“Former ANDSF: ‘We used to break bread with these Americans.’”

The Kinder and Gentler Taliban. Laundered, recycled, repackaged, redistributed, regurgitated, and still reviled.

Unprecedented
