Biden considers releasing $$$ to Taliban

[Counselor706]

The Afghan news agency Khaama Press, citing the BBC, reported on Tuesday that the administration of President Joe Biden may soon unfreeze Afghan government assets, allowing the Taliban to access them, in the name of helping the impoverished people of the country.

The Taliban does not currently have access to Afghan government assets in American banks. Global institutions like the World Bank and International Monetary Funds (IMF) have also barred the jihadist terrorists from accessing funds that belong to the government of Afghanistan. The formal government of Afghanistan collapsed in August, however, leaving Taliban terror leaders in charge of the country.

The Biden administration is under intense leftist pressure to fund the Taliban. In a letter published Monday, dozens of far-left members of Congress – including Reps. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Cori Bush (D-MO) – demanded that Biden fund not only release frozen assets to the Taliban, but repeal sanctions on Taliban terrorist leaders.

Extensive evidence documented by Amnesty International and United Nations human rights reporters suggests the Taliban has little regard for the human rights they claim America is violating.

So Lauren Boebert was right?

Well, it is their money. When a new government takes over, they have a fair claim to all the old one's assets.

Probably not.

What did she say?

THIS is exactly the in-kind support that the terrorists
who took over that country rely upon.

You pay for peace; they increase the toll...


[double meaning there for the slow]

 

[bellisarius]

If the Tallyban needs the food, let's trade them for the military shit left behind. That would actually be a politically smart move for the administration, which is why it'll never happen.

The Taliban are no threat to anyone outside their own country -- they do not support ISIS or any form of international jihad -- al-Qaeda is no longer welcome among them -- they don't even care about China's oppression of the Muslim Uighurs -- nobody is paying them to be left alone.

What they're relying on is control over Afghanistan's mineral resources, for which they will probably work out some profitable deal with China.
