KABUL, AFGHANISTAN – The following is extremely graphic. Viewers discretion is advised.

The Taliban announced on Sunday, Aug. 15, that the war in Afghanistan is over as they have taken over control of the entire country including the capital city of Kabul.

This has caused choas throughout the country due to the extreme ideology. The majority of Afghan residents believe that they will be killed by the Taliban.

The following shows a few desperate Afghan residents cling to aircraft before falling to their deaths: 

A reporter for CNN is on scene with member of the Taliban. She said that the Taliban are screaming death to America but in an intimidating tone.

This is to  San Angelo Live. I see above that this article appeared just a few hours ago and there is a liberal that comments very often here that is already printed below this story. I commented on various stories last Friday and my comments still haven't appeared. This same scenario has happened a few times before. When this happens, by the time my comments are printed the story is 3 or 4 pages back. I wouldn't think much about it but, the liberal mentioned above seems to have almost immediate response from S.A.L.

Well, I commented on three stories last Friday and they were finally printed today. That only took 5 days and they are only 5 pages back.

I’m convinced me someone might actually be a paid troll to get views up on articles. If not it’s pretty embarrassing how brainwashed this person is.

I think most Americans are happy with a drawdown in troops. The problem is Biden tried and failed, and caused a complete collapse, which is now sparking off a giant crises where he’s sending in more than he pulled out. There is also all the military equipment including vehicles like Blackhawk choppers we just basically handed to the taliban because of this,  arming them better than ever. While also apparently having no plan on what to do with everyone still there.

It’s concerning because it went from a government we had a working relationship with to….. the taliban
