This group is a major source of headache for Pakistan as well.

This also shows limitations of AT who are expected to clean Afghanistan of terror orgs like ISIS. Fighting as an insurgent is completely different from fighting against an insurgency and providing protection to common people and businesses. Its in every one’s interest to move past the previous conflict and make Afghanistan stable, Pakistan has a lot at stake here.
1) The attack was from ISIS.
4) Biden said USA is going to go after the ISIS targets and there are some known targets. That can't be possible now without the on-the-ground Taliban help because the Taliban control over 95% of Afghanistan.
5) Taliban are 'not nice' but that's as far as he went. No more we would bomb them into this or that as was being said just a few days ago!
A country where, ABOVE ALL, the 'public opinion' can make even the President of America to change strategic policies unless there is a 'manufacturing of consent', as Chomsky had put it.
ISIS Khurasan are some viscous people their violence is no less than daesh or TTP. executing women children including pregnant women attacking schools hospitals mosques is just one of many examples. nothing is off limit for these hounds of Hell.Al-Qaeda Network was the primary spoiler and target in the region.
Afghan Taliban were secondary targets for being shortsighted but Allah Almighty have given them another chance.
All stakeholders have something to learn from this war.
ISIS-K in hot waters now. Joe Biden have given the nod to curb this threat. Let us see what Afghan Taliban will do in this regard.
Terrorism in any shape or form is unethical and evil.
there is none, other than suspicions by both the Taliban and the NATO that the attack was from Daesh, ISIS Khurasan chapter. there might be a claim for responsibility posted on internet later but one can also question that.What is the proof?
yea the Americans are grudgingly forced to trust the Taliban as its in its self interest to see Americans leave as promised without any hurdle. American and British forces have praised Taliban for establishing security and law and order and also letting the NATO forces leave freely. and none of the two parties is willing to brake this truce.Yes sir. So Biden Press Conference just ended and a few takeaways:
1) The attack was from ISIS.
2) There is some understanding with the Taliban--on that he referred to Gen. McKenzie's statement and mentioned 'mutual interests' with Taliban.
3) The Aug. 31 deadline is going to be kept. No surprise because yesterday Blinken also stressed adhering to the deadline and that evacuations would continue after that. But both Blinken yesterday and Biden today stressed that not many Americans are left. And today Biden even alluded to 'millions of Afghans' may not be eligible to leave Afghanistan--a BIG SLAP on the Western Media who have been protesting about Taliban stopping people from leaving Afghanistan.
4) Biden said USA is going to go after the ISIS targets and there are some known targets. That can't be possible now without the on-the-ground Taliban help because the Taliban control over 95% of Afghanistan.
5) Taliban are 'not nice' but that's as far as he went. No more we would bomb them into this or that as was being said just a few days ago!
People really need to understand how America works. It is a country with many 'centers of powers'. A country where major policies can change with the change of the Presidency. A country where, ABOVE ALL, the 'public opinion' can make even the President of America to change strategic policies unless there is a 'manufacturing of consent', as Chomsky had put it.
Both Afghan Taliban and USA had INTEL that ISIS-K will take its chances in Kabul Airport. This is apparent from multiple streams of reports when intervowen to figure out the bigger picture.What is the proof?
Sir any new proxy can be used you can label them whatever is convenient for you ... the REAL culprit will never be known unfortunately.it only leaves ISIS -K with previous similar history and any other unknown group that has not surfaced yet.
You mean the mainstream media...WHY people forget Iraq war so easily...that should be the litmus test for mainstream media which led to a War which cost millions of innocent Iraqi lives ... unfortunately there is no independent impartial investigative agency to take an assignment of finding out what is really happening on the ground...Both Afghan Taliban and USA had INTEL that ISIS-K will take its chances in Kabul Airport. This is apparent from multiple streams of news when intervowen to figure out the bigger picture.
What is the proof?
So WOT 2.0 (may be carried out remotely) will be started and continue indefinitely because I bet you as soon as you will take out the last ISIS fighter ... you will hear another emerging threat to keep the WOT 2.0 alive and with that will go in drains China/s expansion of its belt and road initiative etc plus any guarantee that their will be a lasting peace in Afghanistan and in the region ...
Well the average Joe does not care much he is more concerned in providing food on the table; and as far as making "Public Opinion" goes...who makes it the mainstream media, the similar opinion which led the sheeple public to vote for War in Iraq...?
Bidens' willingness to work with the Taliban will be ringing alarm bells in Panjshir right now....Al-Qaeda Network was the primary spoiler and target in the region.
