The Afghans and the Pakistanis have been increasingly fighting over the last few months. Reports are that they're now in a full-scare war with the Taliban launching an "offensive" into Pakistan. Will be interesting to see if they're able to use our equipment successfully against the US-equipped Pakistanis.

Lindsay Graham is on his way to Trump's office already with a giant boner to ask for more war.

And to think the Pakistani ISS secretly propped up and sheltered Taliban leadership for a long stretch of the Global War on Terror.

I suppose they thought they could be a bulwark against worse options like ISIS.

At least in this case we didn't sell both sides weapons. One side got them for free! Thanks FJB!

Not unless it was recently. Pakistan and Russia have a defense coalition so most of their weapons are Russian. About two years into the Ukraine war, Russia did start buying some back, IIRC.

One country normalizes men and boy sex, and the other marrying of first cousins (and has the highest rate of birth defects).

I hope they have a ball and beat the crap out of each other. If we can sell them weapons I'm fine with that too but I don't want a single American troop anywhere near that crap. If those guys are fighting they don't have time to cause trouble elsewhere and it may actually benefit us in Iran. Not much threat of a nuke either because nuking Afghanistan won't do much strategically but it would backfire huge on Pakistan.

This is a benefit of deglobalization, let these guys fight it out as it doesn't iimpact us. Both of those countries suck.

Would Afghanistan look any different after Armageddon? It might smell better I guess.

Where's Trump when you need him?
He can scream at the Paks and Afghans and make it his 9th war that he resolved.

Those losers don't got no nooks.
They've been fooling the world for decades. It works to everyone's advantage to make money and keep war hysteria going.

So you telling me you don't want us to take in millions of military age angry muslim male refugees from these countries from the goodness of our hearts?

But but but Obama did that. What a nice compassionate man.

The Afghans are US equipped as well courtesy of the Biden administration.

It turns out to be a 4-d chess move by bumbling Biden. Should ensure max casualties on both sides.

Broad Pakistani airstrikes across the Afghanistan including Kabul. Paks call Afghanistan "a colony of India" under the Taliban. worth watching to see if the war widens

Pakistan encouraged the Tabliban as a bulwark to India, and to build their "strategic depth". (Link)
Terrible, self destructive strategy.

I am not surprised that the Afghanistan-Pakistan war escalated in recent days more than 4 months after the two countries agreed to ceasefire in October. I hope they destroy each other, and I don't want a single US military member near that war.

Coincidentally, I had an outing with some Indian-American clients earlier this month. Great guys. From Mississippi if you believe that. Big MAGA types. So funny to hear them go off on Pakis, Afghans, Russians, etc.
