Not seeing anything which could be done at scale now. Short of threatening to glass the place which is not a credible threat.

My hope is that Taliban can learn to rule with less force and more kindness, be more understanding, and be more democratic even within Islamic rule.

Best thing I've seen from you in some time. Straight-up love, empathy and compassion: no poisonous partisan politicking. I knew you still had it in you.

You are flat out wrong. We been in the middle east so long that all this seems natural but it's not, If Afghanistan is unstable without us their, after 2 DECADES of us being there, We DIDNT DO ANY GOOD. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

You’ve actually changed my mind on this. We should have been more considerate to the ppl we are leaving behind. I’m not saying we shouldn’t have left but maybe we could have evacuated ppl with us instead of abandoning them.
