OscailtA Saigon moment looms in KabulIn this article by Pepe Escobar who is reporting on the situation in Afghanistan where province after province has rapidly fallen to the Taliban, he compares the current situation to the chaotic evacuation from Saigon in Vietnam after the USA had killed at least 2 million there in a brutal war that lasted more than a decade. In the case of Afghanistan the USA and NATO have achieved zero and spent over 2 trillion dollars but in the process have further destroyed the country and killed untold hundreds of thousands of Afghans.
Now as told by Escobar the Taliban are avenging America's invasion way back in 2001 and as Kandahar the second city of Afghanistan has already fallen, the only obstacle that remains is Kabul itself and as one commentator suspects they may be hoping to take that on Sept 11th which would be a fitting slap in the face to the Empire. That though remains to be seen whether it will occur on that date but it will happen one way or another.

<p>The Taliban has created momentum in a brilliant way. The retreat from the provincial capitals is not complete. These forces have not yet received new assignments in Kabul. Without waiting the Taliban are pushing their advantage.Checkmate, game over, truly unbelievable, I am flabbergasted.</p>
US is offering its citizens LOANS to flee Afghanistanhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/107952#comment3020232021-08-15T22:16:35+00:00TNever an opportunity missed to promote the Covid propaganda.

From RT.com report.
<blockquote><h3>As the Taliban closes in and the troops rush to avert disaster, the US is offering its citizens LOANS to flee Afghanistan</h3>
<p> The US exit from Afghanistan is beginning to look more and more like 1975’s humiliating fall of Saigon, but American citizens fleeing the country need not fret – Uncle Sam has offered them loans to buy plane tickets.</p>
<p>That’s right, those decapitation-phobics who don’t want to fall into Taliban hands can get a “repatriation” loan from the US State Department. The usual terms and conditions surely apply.</p>
<p>The US Embassy in Kabul dangled the offer last week, when it advised all American citizens in Afghanistan to leave immediately “<em>using available commercial flight options</em>.” It provided a State Department email address for those who needed to apply for airfare financing. The loans were mentioned again when the embassy sent out a similar security alert on Thursday, offering essentially the same advice.</p>
<p>On both occasions, it made it clear that Americans shouldn’t expect much more help: “<em>Given the security conditions and reduced staffing, the embassy’s ability to assist US citizens in Afghanistan is extremely limited, even within Kabul.</em>”</p>
<p>Among the dangers cited were “<em>crime, terrorism, civil unrest, kidnapping, armed conflict, and <strong>Covid-19</strong></em>.” Of course there’s Covid-19. <strong>Be sure to get your shots and mask up. You wouldn’t want to have a fever and shortness of breath when trying to outrun militants in a Toyota Hilux pickup with a mounted machine gun..</strong>.</p>

But don't worry nothing of the sort happened and the capital has been taken peacefully.
