“The Islamic Emirate doesn’t want women to be victims” Samangani said, using the militants’ term for Afghanistan. “They should be in government structure according to Shariah law.”

He added: “The structure of government is not fully clear, but based on experience, there should be a fully Islamic leadership and all sides should join.”

Pretty sure they also did not expect to win so quickly

      I really don't want to go to much into it, but while there are material differences between the groups mentioned the idea that the US government is NOT terroristic is quite funny. The only way to hold that point of view in my opinion is to take the US elite definitions of terrorist and ignore others.

          The Taliban et al. have beheading videos as an official communication method. Not exactly conventional.

          The US has drone strikes, airstrikes, execution videos, letting people die for economic reasons as official communication method. Not exactly conventional.

              I think a lot of people here are used to arguing with redditors, so they'll see disagreements when there are none.

            These methods are unfortunately so conventional that must people actively ignores them.
