Don't worry the Taliban prefer to hang them or shoot them when they aren't abusing women. Oh fark, I forgot, so do Trump supporters. Sorry my mistake your right.

@Analysta654 Great point. I've asked where did they get the money? That many guns and bullets isn't cheap. And then there's the question where did they get them? This isn't a truck load or 2 this is convoys of trucks and cars. Where did all their equipment come from? With all the satellite tech and drones and other stuff where did they hide all this stuff? There's a whole pile of questions NOBODY seems to be asking. Possibly nobody wants to ask incase the answers aren't what certain people want to be made public. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

@PostcardCathy If you separate the concepts of wisdom and intelligence you're absolutely right. Wisdom is basically the ability to apply knowledge and experience of which intelligence is only a part. Almost everything about Trumps presidency screams a total lack of political wisdom. Remember his classic on health care when his attempt to repeal Obama Care fell flat - "who knew health care would be hard." I forget the exact words but at the time its was a monumental WTF. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

@PhilLesh69 Lord of War as actually based on a Russian guy named Victor Bout. I think there was a documentary about him called "the man who armed the world." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Bout About the Pakistani involvement. I worked with a young Pakistani engineer a few years back. We talked about this stuff one day. He bluntly told me I DIDN'T know shit and then let me know that his father was a Pakistani politician. He showed me photos of US Diplomats in his house for a diner and meeting. His father had him sit in meetings occasionally for the experience. I can't tell you all he told me but he was blunt about 1 thing. The US knew exactly what the Pakistani government was doing and approved most of it. He was dead right about 1 thing. I didn't know shit.

@petercase7697 Since you want a view on how others see America lets start with basic education. You have basic spelling, grammar, and other issues that only prove that others consider America's education system is falling behind or worse collapsing. I find that particularly grating because I'm Australian but went to college in America. My degree in aerospace engineering which I worked my ass off to get is losing value on nothing more than the PERCEPTION that American education is crap. America's problem starts with the idiotic partisan toxic politics its developed. Facts don't matter. Reasoning on anything is almost impossible because of the insane tribal nature of all public discussion. You bring up the "Hang Mike Pence" chants. That's great example of the insanity of American politics. People screaming about defending the constitution chanting to hang the VP for doing his duty under the constitution. If you think that type of stupidity is an American only thing - you're wrong. Idiotic partisan politics is part of every nation. Its just more obvious and more rampant in some countries.

Actually both Don Snr and his dad and Ivanka are all highly intelligent. One of his uncles was an exceptional engineer. The correct slur for this part of the Trump family is "They are as dumb as door knobs or narcissistic sociopaths." Silence of the Lambs is highly educational if you are trying to distinguish them. Right now the similarity between Don Jnr an Hunter Biden is pretty narrow. They are both sons of presidents. They are both spoiled brats. They are both immensely overrated for their acumen. They both have nasty drug habits. The only difference is that one has been to rehab.

@Luixxxd1 You forgot that "nobody knows it better than Trump." Of all the Trump stats its the one I wish somebody knew. How many times did Trump claim "nobody knows it better than I do"?

@myplan8166 Motivation is a subject too many dismiss out of hand. Prof. Mark Blyth who was one of the very few who got BOTH Brexit and Trump 2016 right point out the issue of motivation when it came to the 2020 election. Listen to part of this answer when it comes to motivation. -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGuaoARJYU0&t=4794s

@petercase7697 Go back and edit your question so that it makes sense.

Vic Melloni Way back when they were first emerging as a force to be noted and nobody really knew who they were and the first ugly stories started to come out I remember this one story. It was about a nurse who was taken by the Taliban. She was raped, stoned to death and the body was burnt. It was medieval brutality and meant to terrorize people. Her crime was having a job outside the family home. That was a couple of years BEFORE the 9/11 attacks.

@petercase7697 If you're going to ask a question ask a question. If your going to yell at the world incoherently don't complain when people wonder WTF you're on about.

@petercase7697 2 Reasons why I care about what happens in America. 1: My friends & their families over there. 2: Its Australia's most important trading and security partner. Right now we are in a trade war with China over Trumps BS. We have tied the next 30+ years of our security to the F35 program. We just can't afford America to be dysfunctional. We aren't alone in that - Japan, Taiwan, Philippines, MOST of Europe, Canada, Mexico, Israel, just to name a few with similar concerns. NONE of us can afford America to be dysfunctional.
