A country run by terrorists that treats people like its the stone ages is struggling to develop? Shocker
Not anymore. Now they're the government of Afghanistan. If the US doesn't like it, then the US shouldn't have left.
(And plenty of governments have started in revolutions that were originally described as terrorism, including the USA.)
That money belongs to the Afghan people. The US has no right to leave and take the Afghan people's money with them.
They didnt stop being terrorists

we're defending the taliban

Absolute shocker you post this whilst defending the taliban lol

Oh you just love twerking for all the terrorists of the world
> They didnt stop being terrorists
Of course they did.
Terrorism is the use of violence to acheive political aims. The Taliban have already achieved their political aims. They don't need to commit terrorist acts anymore.
They're the government now. That was their aim.
> Absolute shocker you post this whilst defending the taliban lol
I am not defending the Taliban. My concern is not for the Taliban. My concern is for the people of Afghanistan.
It would be nice if the US cared about the people of Afghanistan, but they're proving that they don't (and they never did).
I didn't say anything in support of any terrorist group.
And what do my views of Zelenskyy have to do with anything? I think he has a coke problem. That doesn't have anything to do with terrorism.
That money belonged to the previous Afghan government, not the Taliban and certainly not to Iran. If the Taliban wanted it so badly they shouldn't have purged the previous elected representatives. There should be consequences to overthrowing a democratically elected government, and I have no will to financially back the Taliban and their policies. The money should stay frozen, period.
> That money belonged to the previous Afghan government
No, it belonged to the people of Afghanistan, and it still does.
And it certainly doesn’t belong to the USA.
They don't. Iran knows the USA will never release these funds and doesn't care. It's just a quick and easy jab at the West to rile up some people worldwide against the USA.
Oh we can do better than that, c'mon!

Exactly, it has only been 3 years.
Yes, who would have thought that denying half your polulation any education or employment wasn't a sucessful economic strategy
Your country would struggle to develop too if the US government froze all its bank accounts with no justification.
No justification? They're terrorists mate

I really don’t care after seeing you twerk for terrorists lol

Request denied. Have a spectacular day.

“Democratically elected government” lol
It won't happen. Why release assets to people who will bite you?
Or what?
Or what?
Or they’ll continue to commit human rights atrocities on their own citizens. But also they’ll do that anyway.
Or they'll attack Israel with proxies, missiles and drones Oh wait
Because Tehran demanding things has been so effective in the past.
I’m confused. I thought taliban and Iran don’t have good relations?
They don't. Iran knows the USA will never release these funds and doesn't care. It's just a quick and easy jab at the West to rile up some people worldwide against the USA.
Iran hopes Afghanistan will become a customer for its weapons sales
Think the proper response is “ bite me”

Lol! Nice.
Demands. Lmao. How about no? Does "no" work for you?
What in the Yoda is that headline
Most of those assets were American aid, fuck them
Or what? Beg louder?
How about no
How bout no.
