Re: Parliament to be recalled re: Taliban in Afghanistan
Quote:
Quote from The Sun: Triumphant Taliban leaders are reportedly already offering a safe haven to Al Qaeda as it bids to create a "cradle of jihad".
The revelation made by a Pentagon watchdog report came the day after president Joe Biden claimed the war had ensured Afghanistan could not be used to launch terror attacks.
The US withdrawal and fall of Kabul came just weeks before the 20-year anniversary of the September 11 2001 Al Qaeda attacks that sparked invasion by Western allies the following month.
The objective was to topple the Taliban regime, dislodge Al Qaeda and capture its leader Osama bin Laden - after the jihadis carried out the attacks on New York and Washington that killed nearly 3,000 people.
But now, with the Taliban back in power, a new report claims the terror group again has a safe place in which to plot mass murder.

So after all the effort, expense and lost lives we're right back where it started from. 
Next time we have to take out the vipers nest it should be done with drones, bombs and missiles. Not ground troops.
