        Nah. It might take them a few more weeks, but thanks to Biden and the democrat party the Taliban will get back to burying women up to their necks and then cutting their heads off again.

          Are any of those American guns which were left behind?

          Probably not, the Talibs have those.

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            So many RPGs... these are not very practical weapons in most situations.

                They prefer goats and sheep to women anyway.

                  If you're staring straight at the gore nest then you need to circle to the left and you should see a mouth with a breakable wall just above the lava. Jump across and dash through the wall, keep going down the tunnel and you'll catch the Infinite Ammo cheat code no problem.

                    I never figured out how the woke could look the other way at other countries where the abuse of women, people of wrong ethnic background etc….are worse than at any period in US history.

                    I’d like to see a write up on that. I think they are getting away with massive hypocrisy but I could be wrong. Ax’s article in this context appears to be incredibly misleading and is drivel for the woke.

                      I seem to remember that quite a lot of trendy lefties (the term we used before 'woke' became a thing) were very anti-Taliban until the US invaded, at which point they had to start questioning their privileged imperialistic beliefs.

                      I was only joking

                        I seem to recall at the time the now late Christopher Hitchens, a self professed leftist, excoriating the left and progressives for siding with the Taliban and other Islamo-fascists terrorists.

                          It's also possibly that some lefties thought that when they were fighting the USSR they were automatically bad, but when they fought the USA they became the good guys.

                          Also, some on the right almost certainly held the opposite view. Freedom fighters vs. the USSR, barbaric terrorists when vs. the USA.

                          I was only joking

                            The education system in Afghanistan was run by women. The Taliban came in and took them all out of their roles. I can’t even begin to imagine what a set back that has been. Imagine not levering women at all, Stone Age society.

                              Yuh, dogs and pickups. In fact, if they have a pickup, somewhere on it there will be a sticker that says, "If it's got tits or tires it will give you trouble."

                                Women don't make great levers.

                                They are all soft and bend in the middle, this just isn't the right tool.

                                  Just so y'all know...

                                  That's the barrel from a RPK machine gun poking out on the left side of the pic. That sucker weighs around 11 pounds, not to mention the ammo to feed it. I wouldn't want to hump it up and down hills. Especially if I was a woman...

                                  “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                  Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
