    Yeah, but we aren’t reporting at the level we used to.

    But to be fair, we still ignored Afghanistan a lot during the occupation.

      Why should we? Honestly, if I was American, I would be salty about this as hell. So much money spent and then they give up the moment US leaves? Apparently they got exactly what they wanted. Sure, not everyone likes it, but don’t blame the world “forgetting” about you, this shit is entirely of their doing.

      it’s weird to use the word “occupation” because it implies the Taliban is the rightful rulers of the country
