In #Afghanistan after pol leaders fled & soldiers surrendered, #Taliban have talked about an inclusive national #army curently being reorganised. But what hardware/capabilities will they have

🧵ImageImageImageImage
They have
-Millions of rounds of ammo
-10s of thousands of guns, radios other hardware
-1000s of MRAPs & Humvees
-Dozens of aircraft
-100s of technicians/operators

@AJEnglish had exclusive access to what #Taliban says is the beginning of its own #AirForce
Military analysts say much of the estimated $88 BILLION firepower built by US in its 20-yr #Afghan war is either obsolete/inoperable. The coalition destroyed large amounts of hardware on its way out.

Now some being rebuilt from scrap and spares.

I asked a senior leader of the #Taliban

Whether they're...
- violating peace agreement terms
- disingenuous during peace talks
- tactically buying time before withdrawal deadline
- behind targeted killings and spike in violence
- not severing ties with groups like Al Qaeda
(1/n)
The Taliban leader accused the Afghan govt and allies of violating their deal.

"According to the agreement after three months of initiating intra-Afghan dialogue, all prisoners are to be released. It’s been five months and they haven’t released a single prisoner"
He says "After nine months of commitment Taliban continues to be blacklisted, Kabul & USG continue to ignore the deal. The agreement makes it clear they will not carry out bombardment, drone attacks, artillery strikes, or night raids – they continue to openly violate terms"

Organisers say they tried insulting our prophet in 2015 and now under Macron they do it again. The garb of free expression has been unmasked by the naked aggression.

Protesters shout "the hands which reach for our prophet will be broken" Image
Protesters accuse France of oppressing muslims. They say Macron is feeling the pain from Libya, the Mediterranean and Aarmenia, he wants to take it out on the Muslims by allowing #Charlie_Hebdo to publish insulting caricatures.

Pakistan's media is being squeezed to a conformist model by what pro-regime journalists call a "hybrid-government"

- Journalism must be PR
- Opinion intolerable
- Criticism illegal
#JournalismIsNotACrime

International observers, from the UN to human rights activists have refused to believe Pakistani govt's repeated assertions that there's a free press and no culture of intimidation with impunity. The space for free speech continues to shrink #FreeMedia

Lessons for countries with
-rotting economies
-reliance on loans
-shrinking industry
-devalued currency
-inept bureaucracy
-endemic corruption
-powerful clergy's clout in politics &
-bloated military
The abyss awaits should you not make tough choices NOW while facing the pandemic
Forget running tanks and planes ... if you do not get your finances in order, your hospitals will shut down.

So many lessons from #Lebanon for failing economies.

For diapers!...
