as for this...
Yep, entirely sure. They lost their whole country...every bit of it.... lost a generation of it's people, and didn't get it back until Trump decided to cut the afghan government out and negotiate directly with the taliban...who had always been negotiating with the regular government.
The whole point of the talibans pr blitz, which obviously has you so enamored as an islmaist, is to make them an accetible authority and equal as a partner to the us and wider global community in the coming years of rule. They must be seen to be legitimate, in order to cash in the benefits of legitimacy.
One group of collaboraters flies out, another group seeks to consolidate their collaborative position. Years ago they were given an ultimatum - give us bin ladin or else. They chose or else, and they got or else, and now they want a reset as if they'd given him up from the word go. The taliban of today is not the taliban of yesteryear - their only continuity being a commitment to human rights abuse as sanctioned by your shared god.
