Taliban Conquers Much of Afghanistan, Bans COVID-19 Vaccine
As the Taliban takes over Afghanistan, they’ve started banning the COVID-19 vaccine in certain regions of the country.
Shamshad News, an Afghani news platform, reports that the Taliban banned COVID-19 vaccine distribution in Paktia, a province in eastern Afghanistan, after it was captured by the group last week.
Walayat Khan Ahmadzai, the provincial public health director for the region, said that the Taliban has warned regional hospital employees to stop distributing the vaccine.
They’ve since closed the COVID-19 vaccine ward in the regional hospital.
The existing (now fallen) regime in afghanistan was unbelievably corrupt. Degenerately so.
Other things that have happened in the last 24 hours is people in Kabul have had electricity running for more than 4 hours straight. (they had random rolling blackouts/brownouts - people couldn't get more than 30 min of electricity etc.).
Nice, now they can finally get online long enough to place orders for your favorite funcopops!!!
Isn't it peculiar that in the same 24 hours the existing regime is removed, they get power back.
Perspective right now, from people in Afghanistan, is they are way less extreme, and a much more political organisation now - trying to get rid of the corrupt us supported gov. (it also seems power has shifted within the 'organisation'.). It seems like a lot of the population is in support of Taliban (hence why they've taken over SO fast). Another thing that is peculiar is HOW fast they were taken over - since the US supposedly supported and trained this new government for 20 fuckin years to be able to do so.
It is also true that sometimes one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. Absolutely. The winner usually writes history, right? Are they better fro Afghanistan than the now previous government - which was/is like I wrote - extremely extremely corrupt. A lot of the videos we've seen coming out from e..g women escaping to other countries and crying their heart out - is supposedly those who've been in cahoots with the corruption - and THEY WOULD BY DEFINITON have had to be if they were in any way successful - because that's how the corruption worked/works there. Be woman, wanting success, have to give up sex and other things to the corrupt regime in order to... That's first hand from women I rust there.
Now, are they aligned with yours or my values? Probably not.
BUT we are in an age of not just mis-information but dis-information. And I will really try and refrain from absolutes.
Another angle is chinese involvement and (obviously the Biden regime is believed to be a CCP puppet by many)..
It's funny how the taliban leader is still on twitter, but old Trump was banned.
To many layers. So far, what we can see is most is not what it seems. The official narrative is definitely fake.
Another aspect is also the chinese fentanyl business cutting the CIA heroin/etc. business at the knees. Don't know.
This looks to me like propaganda, like them going door to door to gather up 12-year-olds for marriage. Neither of those things are believable.
