  1. Yes, NATO could stop the Taliban, Palki. They did it for 20 years. It was Trump's desire for re-election, provoking his meaningless sound-bites 'No more foreign wars', 'Bring the boys home', which apparently went down well with an ignorant electorate, which does not appear to grasp that for Jihadis, Jihad ends only when the Shahada flag is flying from every building in the World. Of course, it would have helped if Pakistan had not aided and abetted the Taliban up to the hilt, and if Biden had not been suffering from dementia - in which case he might have reversed Trump's 'negotiations', as he did with lots of other Trump policies. Now, since NATO is finished, the UK, other European nations, Canada, India, Australia and Japan must all start thinking seriously about Defence, since the USA cannot be trusted.
