Inevitable: Drama in Afghanistan: Realities as of August 27, 2021

Posted by HCN on Friday, August 27, 2021
News story writers that have been around for decades might not have a certain amount of emotional capacity or the certain situations to even want to talk about what is going on right now, at the geographic heart of much of it is in Afghanistan.

So, as you can see, Afghanistan now takes the number one slot for headline and front page news. For all of the most unwanted reasons.

Now that COVID-19 pandemic has started to wind down. Now that some of the fires in Burma and Myanmar after the coup and its oppressive activities have started to get cooled down.

Before anything further, spelled out overtop it all is the lust for narcotics.

Let us look back at a timeline starting with the Cold War.

Essentially, Afghanistan wanted to remain independent, especially from the USSR.

The Soviet Afghan War is known to most TV viewers in America as lasting about a decade, with heinous crimes being committed known by some at certain times and other crimes at others, many too unspeakable to bring up again. Roughly from the late 1970s to the mid 1980s.

Mujahideen, in real sense of the word, as in individuals who fought with the heart, for a sincere belief and for their homeland, some of what the word really means, become global symbols of quests for victory. Later, mujahideen was a term slapped around to refer to extremists and often times engaging in concurrent illicit activities such as drug trafficking and seeking global drug hegemonies.

About a year or two after the Soviet Afghan War supposedly ended, the USSR went through some adjustments, transformation, among other choices of words that reflect an accurate account of what happened, to arrive at pretty much the political status of what we have today, a Russia, east of Afghanistan, as well as a number of other regions.

The United States and others that went to help the real mujahideen back in the days of oppression, wound up in sticky situations when not so sincere individuals claiming to be affiliated with mujahideen and engaging in extremism and drug crime decided that they wanted to hang on to the glue of associations of those Americans. 

Mikhail Gorbachev resigns August 1991.

Belovezha Accords.

Around the turn of the millennium, here comes the emergence as known to the public, of terror groups like Al Qaeda, then ISIS, and now evidently there is even another one, perhaps an offshoot of some sort of other designated terror groups, rolling around out there, engaging in terror activity.

This attest to the 'told you so' situation, at least a few times over.

It was advised by top US military officials, that an absolute pull-out from Afghanistan could leave vulnerabilities, essentially a climate in the region with proclivities or potentialities of turbulence. The other one, is some parts of the Muslim World might be getting tricked into thinking that for some reason, some of the terror groups that have emerged in the past two to two and half decades thereabout, should be given a chance that they are not solely terrorists, for instance the other guy's freedom fighters; what has unfolded and been exposed, is that those terror groups are there to do just what they are called, extremists with the aims of narcotic hegemonies, the child trafficking rings, the huge masses of pornography they got caught with, the improvised weapons used for their terror attacks, the brutal murders of kidnapped victims that did not cooperate, the brothels they operated, and the list goes on.

Not a few moments that it takes to blink, that the announcement of a US pull-out from Afghanistan was taking place, did the raucous ruckus start. Violent oppression by what the press called the Taliban making a major comeback in an what looked like an effort to rule. Then there was the effort to flee Afghanistan by many. Evacuations.

Yesterday the news has hit home. At first it was hard to accept as true. Many news stories are glossing over what really happened yesterday, and it might not be because they are purposely glossing over, it might be because they do not know or have grasped the hard facts.

On Thursday August 26, 2021, 13 US soldiers were killed in the line of duty in Afghanistan.

That sentence right there is meaningful. Details of what happened, the unfolding, the exact location, not to pull from the significance, however,- what has been said hereinabove has been stated.

ISIS-K.

?; that is what it is being called as of today's news found online.

So far it has been identified 2 Marines, who were either very young or close to during the September 11th tragedy, which we are coming up on the 20th anniversary of it, many feel we are still in the process of firming the ground where we need to be, insofar a protected America, are among the victims.

The location, known as of now, was Kubul, the Airport, Karzai International, a few minutes before 6pm local time, Abbey Gate local. Varying reports of either one or two suicide bombers as attackers. Logic holds they might have gotten some help in the attack; there are news reports of suicide attackers and attackers.

There were dozens of victims from Afghanistan in the attack.

A story about the Taliban, from the time they first came out until today; were they a group that could be fully trusted as fully trustworthy to hold a position as a viable leader of a country, in this case Afghanistan? Are they showing true colors now? Or was it it was known by analysts and believers who know what they are talking about, that seals of truth cannot be placed on them for positions of public trust, nor private trust, such as those who were the real mujahideen that fought for freedom in the beginning, Americans who have been to the region and have been a witness to the slipshod patterns, and the Muslim World that does not really feel that gray area deceiving for drug control where drug intoxicants as it is are not accepted, is accepted?

Taliban versus ISIS-K; whatever that entails, does not make any of it okay.

What is okay is to live the way of peace.

Oh, there are numerous news reports of warnings to Washington of the possibility of more attacks; to those that know the climate, and what the possibilities are, the concept that a region plagued with violence for about that 40 to 45 years nearly nonstop might have another attack is about as obvious as saying there might be another mugging in New York City.
