explain to me again why the media class deserves any rights

The new Ameer Al Momenin [translates to: Leader of pious believers ]

Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzade

His last name means son of a mulllah lol

He was previously Head of Taliban Islamic courts he was a grand judge, taliban members went to him for religious advice.

Wait for the spin on it now, the media gonna introduce him as a Holy man and not a war lord. It's Khomeini 2.0

As a matter of fact he is a war lord he be the one brainwashing terrorists and telling them collateral damage from their bombings is merciful because according to a fatwa issued 700 years ago allah recieves all those muslims in heaven.

And blind pious believers buy that s***. Based on a 700 year old fatwa that was issued during the mongol invasion of iran. Back then mongols used iranians as human shield when attacking the gates so that archers didnt shoot because they didnt want to kill their own people. Emergency Fatwa so the archers shoot ..if they didnt they all be dead anyway.. but dumb asses dont realize. When sadism takes over you get blinded to the truth.

They styling on you

What do you disagree with in the article?

he's on now

F***ing cope

He claims it was never the intent to nationbuild in afghanistan

Lmfaoooooooo

Lmao man get to the point we see the sugar coating rn

tolly bon

What a f***ing piece of s*** lmao

I mean they not wrong lol. everyone's parents and American media painted the Middle East as the guys to own and defeat since 9/11. It wasn't till like 2010 that excitement wore off.

But I agree it's more on the US gov than us personally. We just bought into their guilt and marketing

He blames the american public for discourse and afghanistan rhetoric as if the blame shouldn't be on the insane amount of government lies and force-fed propaganda. How is it the average Americans fault that not only was information withheld from the public for years if not over a decade, and they were straight lied to? How is the fault of the average American that our policy makers and intelligence are both corrupt and incompetent? This is absolutely pathetic and straight up insulting, it's also insane amounts of gaslighting, in the most literal terms possible. The partisanship part? Sure, okay, whatever. But is that really the average americans fault, when the literal leaders and pundits disingenuously spread fake information, and themselves are uneducated and falsely informed, whether out of their own will or otherwise? Is every american supposed to be a 100% informed scholar on every nuance of Afghanistan, our military, and terrorism, and our establishment and media class is blame-free?

Nation building was def a goal Biden you are a f***ing a******

I mean what did anyone logically expect. The Afghans were never gonna fight back.

Damn. They did tell him stay tf out the way. And he listened

The government literally lied to the public about the situation and then an ongoing propaganda machine force-fed lies to the public for years. Of course the public supported the war, the government spent millions on forcing the average american to think terrorists were going to be the death of America and blatantly lied about the situation in Afghanistan not just to the public but to other branches of the government itself. The media not only aided in this but has been one of the primary sources of disinformation on the middle east and on US foreign policy in general. The public's ideas of Afghanistan are completely negligible when not only does the government ignore that in their own interest anyway, but they go as far as to blatantly lie to the public and unless you have copious amounts of time to do your own research you'll hit a wall of propaganda and falsehoods from the media as well.

Dawg wtf are you talking about man

this the man with the most votes of any candidate ever lmfaoooooooooo

Libs are rewriting history as we speak

so lame

Americucks are gonna claim they never wanted to build a democratic afghanistan for generations just like they cope about vietnam until today

Bin Laden's been dead for a decade why are they there then?
