Why did the Taliban fail to establish an independent country after purges the Américans?
Five years after the U.S. and its allies withdrew:
\>Zero economic development whatsoever
\>Infrastructure in even worse condition and with no investment of any kind
\>War with Pakistan—because, lol, why not?
\>China tried to invest in the country by setting up mines, but locals murdered the Chinese workers and robbed them (which is why China still doesn’t recognize the Taliban government)
\>Now they're asking the hamburgers to come back so they can make some money, suggesting they serve as a base against Iran.
