Some of the most kind people I have ever seen are Muslim. I was told that it's not in the Quran to force religion on anyone. What I was told is that the Quran speaks against it
Taliban's have conquered Afghanistan easily with love and peace ,many had mentioned that it's practically impossible for Taliban's to win, now you might have figured out that you should never underestimate the power of a common man.Aside from trade routes and vast mineral assets yet untapped , the Chinese interest in Afghanistan is no different from that of America ,NATO and the UK but with a glitch of non interference!!
China will control the chip market and therefore control the west's reliance on technology …. While the land route is shorter is more economical for vast quantities that China exports and imports.China's goal is economic, not hegemonic. That is the main relationship between China and Afghanistan and it will bring benefits to both countries.Many don's know why ."Taliban can't take over the whole Afghanistan, it is simply impossible" They just DID !China already has the road route to middle east from Azerbaijan side and Iran. They don't need to connect with Afghanistan for that. Reasons they want to connect with Afghanistan is for their mineral extraction, to make sure east turkamanistan movement does not get any kind of support from Taliban and to make money from Afghanistan's development.
Many have cleared our mind about this issue which has been in a clutter for a long time. Also, why do you think China would rather meet with Taliban and with the Afghan government to make deals about their plans in Afghanistan. However, Taliban indeed did the other way round🤷â€ÂÂ♂"Taliban can't take over Afghanistan" can make a difference 😂 The tali-ban has 5000 Uighur fighters which would be very hostile to any Chinese in Afghanistan. Also Afghanistan is very rugged and mountainous, they would have to cross Tienshan mountains and the Hindu Kush to reach Iran through Afghanistan while they can just go through the tienshan and into Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan which both are a lot safer and stable then Afghanistan.
Even school kids can make it very clear distinction about the current issue.Over the past two decades, China has consolidated relation in West Pacific and South Asia, with the exception of India and Japan, hence both has slow or no growth. Australia does not count because Australia does not have an independent foreign policy at present but a blind fellow of Anglo Saxon policy. Central Asia is also gradually settling with the Belt & Road Initiative. Afghanistan however, with the civil war has been a sore spot. China has a policy on peace, stability, prosperity and equality, particularly with neighbors. Afghanistan and India are not in line. India does not have equality within the country. But China also has a policy of non interference. So, China will have potential liberate Afghanistan with rail and infrastructure !!
With Afghanistan getting rid of the US now, Iraq next and Syria soon, Central Asia and the Middle East may attain better cooperation, with Iran and Qatar taking the driver seats. Qatar has been instrumental to take initiative to seek and attain peace in this region. And Ajazeera is now becoming the leading authority in world media.
The US has successfully bridged the huge gap between Sunnis and Shiites in the Muslim world. And for the first time, Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan may be able to join force to work towards a better future. With the US exiting the Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria and with Russia and China taking an increasing interests in this region, peace and stability will return. China's BRI will have direct access to the Mediterranean. And with China, oil can be shipped from Mediterranean ports instead of Persian Sea. China's increasing influence in the Muslim world will most likely be not welcomed by the US. But for two decades, China has been most preferred by the Muslim world, particularly in the Middle East. And Israel will also welcome China's strong presence because the Muslim world will respect China. Most importantly though, the world can expect steady improvement in living standard in this region, thanks to the exiting US and incoming Chinese. No big deal, just the normal usual Made in China.Many think China also has interest in Afghanistan for a more strategic military approach to countries they have disagreement with.."Investment and time" 2 things that are unlimited to China 🇨🇳
The question should be" What is The US interest in Afghanistan"The US have been there more than 20 years.1.They could have been given key intelligence to do so from U.S. officials that have been there for past 20 years. 2.The propped up government of Afghanistan was a complete sham and only allowed U.S. intelligence agencies to extract poppy wealth and filter their black money, so they had no integrity, and hence no leadership skills., but the Subversive nature of Western interference in middle east for past 100 years has certainly emboldened and even legitimized the most extreme opposition, because after so long, there is no other side of the coin. The PNAC papers of the 1990s reveal that sectarian violence is exactly what a cabal within the U.S. has wanted, and they have been able to string other NATO nations along in their chameleon narrative.
Afghanistan needs infrastructure like Huawei 5G technology,rail and road in China can built n do business not war, that's truly a sign of an intellectual, independent and intelligent mind, and someone who truly thinks economy. Current govt or rather our national army should employ people like you on a permanent basis so as to develop a comprehensive national policy, rather that unless incompetent bureaucrats like USA .Relationship with China will be the most beneficial for Afghanistan in the past former Soviet Union had came to destroy every where , then USA did the same things with Afghanistan just killing people senselessly. China will do something different to Afghanistan if they invest into infrastructural redevelopment in Afghanistan that will make strong relationship between two nations both benefited as well.
The key to analyzing the problem lies in valid information. If there are too many conjectures and invalid information, it is easy to draw wrong conclusions.Many people give the answer directly without going to the local area. People who have never been to China talk about China, those who have never been to the United States talk about the United States, and those who have never talked to Afghan locals talk about Afghanistan directly. Many people are like this…
Send the feminists!!!
“The women left behind with all the cowardly men who stood idle while their country fell to a bunch of illiterate sandal-wearing Talibsâ€ÂÂ. That should be the title of this video.
Why's it gotta be like this
Again it’s abc and this reporter putting here and others at risk.
They don't even get two meals a day and you're not talking about that either. You can't even ask the US why they seized a poor country's money 💲.
Democracy dies in the darkness of Islam.
Authoritarians always afraid of education. But Afghan missing freedom fighters.

Why is the discussion about women liberation and not about food or resources that are needed there? Because any developing country will always focus on resources and infrastructure over liberation, especially when another country (i.e., US) destroyed everything before leaving. Like seriously, why are these people going to give women a position to argue gender, patriarchy, and how to dress loosely when they don't have running water or food? There's a lot of work to do and they are keeping their daughters and wives safe until the country is rebuilt and safe, then liberation can be discussed, but right now the animals are out during both the day and night. 😅😮â€ÂÂ💨
I noticed something a long time ago, but today I paid special attention! We know that America is made up of all nations, peoples, races, religions! However, I only see "proudly" displayed flags from Honduras, Nicaragua and other Latin American countries in cars and on houses! There are no flags from other parts of the world! They left the country where they had no living conditions, where their lives were threatened, where their children were hungry, and now in the country that made everything possible for them, US, they carry flags from those 💩 states ??!!
