Not sure what you’re getting at. ISIS-K seem determined to make trouble for the Taliban. Would you rather they didn’t?

I wouuld really rather they got a new national sport - other than killing each other.....

A sad case of Darwinnowing. Things that came out of "our" killing many of the people "over there", and the bomb vest people killing their own people, is that that is also a winnowing of the "stupid" population. The fact is, those people dying probably made the collective IQ higher. I suspect that women (not lowering the collective IQ, but still being forced to suicide bomb) and retarded and/or Down's Syndrome kids being forced to wear suicide vests means that the remaining men (since women and the others rate lower) are resisting that.

ETA: Maybe add in lower religious fervor to get those virgins before one's time. Life is indeed sweet.
