As per the Taliban:
It seems Afghans themselves don't want to fight and are quick to surrender to the Taliban. A lot of them probably want an Islamic/Sharia rule.

I think the women don't like it. Under Taliban, no more school for women. Taliban will insist on marrying two and three and more instead, and hood them so they are unheard.

It's sad,

But if they don't want to live under Sharia law, they need to fight for the soul of their country (especially their armed forces). It's not surprising that their forces are surrendering without putting up a good fight. It's a country where the leaning is already conservative Islam. The Taliban only need a little effort to convince people to switch sides.

I am happy that Canada just airlifted 20,000 people that were in immediate danger as they are likely marked for reprisal attacks by the Taliban. People such as women leaders, human right workers, members of the LGBTQ communities, persecuted religious minorities, reporters, e.t.c plus their families. These 20,000 are in addition to the thousands of Afghans who worked for the Canadian government, such as interpreters, embassy workers and their families that were earlier flown into Canada.

Afghan will not be the first to be under Sharia law.
They are still under Sharia law as we speak so Taliban will not be bringing anything new.
They want sharia Let them have sharia.
Countries under sharia law are many eg Saudi, Iran, Mali, Pakistan.
But since you are in Canada you might want to educate us on what aspects of sharia law the Taliban should not introduce that are not in the current sharia dictates.

Tdotbluejays:

Well. Thank you for confirming that they are already under Sharia even with the occupation of US and NATO. No wonder some of their forces are refusing to fight the Taliban. They probably see the Taliban as fighting a just cause. The armed forces personnels may just be in the Afghan Army for their daily bread.

Who would have thought you would ever agree with me?
They want it, have had it let them have it. Trump had made a demand that they not harbor those who plan to commit terror acts, in return for withdrawal.

PrideofLincoln1:
I disagree with you though. The problem is not America. The problem is the corrupt leaderships in Afghanistan. America spent over $2 Trillion and thousands of young lives for Afghanistan to better their country and after twenty years of that, nothing came out of it. I hate Trump with all the cells in my body but supported him when he said he would pull out of Afghanistan. Enough of 20 and 21 year old being killed in Afghanistan and Iraq. Do you know what $2 Trillion can do to upgrade the infrastructures in America. I bet you majority of Americans supports our pulling out of Afghanistan. These Islamic jingoists will keep killing each other no matter what any Government do. Let United Nations or NATO take over from American Military forces.

Tdotbluejays:

Hopefully they keep to the agreement.

You see a country like Afghanistan you gotta thank God for Nigeria at least

Tdotbluejays:

NATO pulled out in 2014 or thereabout. Even though they left some troops on ground to continue training Afghan military and police.

I don't think NATO is interested in returning. If the people of Afghanistan are not motivated enough to fight the Afghan Taliban, there is no point in continuing to support a never ending war. The western presence just means war with no end in sight. The Afghans (Taliban and Islamists) can sort themselves out. Hopefully they make peace amongst themselves.

This whole thing is perplexing but again could just be Afghanistans want this, the resistance from Afghan army is almost non existent which is too good to be true.

I don't know how to make you realise that the effort the Taliban is using to convince people to switch sides is immense. But let me try.

Ignore my attempt to brainwash you please. Show me what you call "a little effort".

The above is like some ignorant person yelling, "they like Biden! Let them have Biden!"

It is not true, Bas.

sanpipita:


Nigeria is heading on that path, I tell you this Taliban take over will be celebrated in north, they want an Islamic nation.

basilico:


The Talibans believe in strict implementation of sharia.
Any nation or society that is ruled by clerics has. the same punishments for transgression.

basilico:


I explained with examples that a group of zealots have wrought havoc to their society once they captured state power

budaatum:


And your argument is that the people on whom the type of sharia you are describing is being imposed is what the people want? That they are almost begging for it in fact?

Find me one person in that group saying they don't want sharia.

AmazonTopaz:


The women and girls are the ones I pity in all these.Women and children are always vulnerable when there is conflict/war

budaatum:


To some, seems women and children don't count. See one pig telling me to provide one of them so he can personally question whether she likes her vulnerability!

budaatum:


And the "society" are welcoming and happy "that a group of zealots have wrought havoc to their society" after capturing their society?
