The battle for Kunduz, Afghanistan, has apparently ended (for the
time being) after 15 days of in-city combat. The Taliban, dishonest curs
that they are, pretended they simply withdrew because they achieved all
of their goals.
Let's see what some of those "goals" were:
Murdering people with government jobs: Check.
Destroying government offices: Check.
Destroying facilities for women and children: Check.
Hunting down to murder women who run those facilities: Check.
Dragging the entire country back into the seventh century: Pending.
So
these totalitarian feudalist barbarians still have some work to do- and
Allah (and Pakistan and Saudi Arabia) willing, they will achieve them.
I hope not.
On
evaluating what happened in Kunduz, the glass is either half empty or
half full. It's undoubtedly a sign of Afghan weakness that these
terrorists could take over a major city for a fortnight. On the other
hand, Afghan government forces were willing to fight, and ultimately
drive out the invaders. (With U.S. military help, it needs to be noted.)
What
is clear is that Afghanistan will be a Western dependency for years to
come, unless the West wants to risk having it dragged back down into the
Islamofascist swamp.
