    there are lots of ways Alphabet agencies can fuck with the situation.

    On the other hand, if the alphabet agencies really had substantial power to fuck with the Taliban, they would have done it by now.

      Maybe maybe not. The taliban as a hostile insurgency is different from a neutral governing party. Also having a enemy occupying your homeland has a way of unifying very mutually hostile factions temporarily.

      The US leaving very likely could leave it with a stronger hand on many ways. While it is fun to jeer and mock the empire for its stupidity, it did manage to climb to the top of the pile of corpses so i wouldn't underestimate it.
