Hello Darth,
The Taliban have a problem. They are like the barking dog that caught the firetruck. What do they do with it? Now, all of a sudden, they go from being anti-government to being the government. Now the pressure is on them to show they can do a better job. Where are they going to get money to run the country? Will they continue selling drugs?
They wanted control. Now they have it. How much of a grace period should they be allowed before they are blamed for the problems of Afghanistan?
It's easy to put down the government. It's a lot harder to be the replacement government. And it's not like they have the support of all the people. What they have is intimidation. That's no way to govern. They have no idea how much trouble they are in. Afghans have a taste of freedom. How is the Taliban supposed to deal with that and not come off as a bunch of thugs?
They are a bunch of thugs.
