Vengeful Thievery by Biden and the Pentagon with Afghanistan by Jacob G. Hornberger!

Throughout the invasion and 20-year occupation of Afghanistan, United States officials portrayed themselves as great saviors and benefactors of the Afghan people. Perhaps the best example of this phenomenon is the Pentagons application of the term "Operation Enduring Freedom" to its deadly and destructive operations in Afghanistan. There was also the supposed concern for "womens rights" within the country.

It was always a lie.

That was demonstrated by the fact that there was never an upward limit on the number of Afghan people who could be killed during the invasion and occupation.

Why, early on, the Pentagon and the Central Intelligence Agency even established a policy to not keep count of the number of Afghans they killed. It did not matter. Any number of deaths and injuries, no matter how high, was considered acceptable. The idea was that those people who survived the deadly and destructive United States violence would enjoy "enduring freedom" and "womens rights."

The truth is that United States officials never cared one whit for the well-being of the Afghan people, including all those people at Afghan wedding parties who were periodically bombed during the 20-year occupation.

Today, the United States governments viciousness is, once again, on display, with two things: (1) The decision by President Biden and the Pentagons to enforce one of their patented systems of economic sanctions on the Afghan populace, and (2) President Bidens and the Pentagons decision to steal more than $7 billion from the Afghan government.

The sanctions are a pure display of viciousness. Why target the Afghan people with more death and suffering?? The war is over. The Pentagon and the Central Intelligence Agency lost. Get over it.

Leave the Afghan people alone. Enough is enough. Can they not be satisfied with the large number of deaths and the massive destruction they wreaked for the last 20 years on the Afghan people??

Why kill and impoverish even more with a brutal system of economic sanctions?

The dark irony is that they are enforcing the sanctions in the name of fighting "terrorism." But is it not the reason they condemn terrorism is that it targets innocent people as a means to achieve a political goal?

Well, that is precisely what their evil system of sanctions does. It too targets innocent people with death, impoverishment, and suffering as a way to achieve a political goal - i.e., to make the Taliban regime look bad or even maybe - (hope springs eternal!) - brings regime change and another corrupt United States puppet regime into power.

Prior to the United States invasion of Afghanistan, the Taliban central bank had deposited more than $7 billion in the United States for safekeeping. That money rightly belongs to the Taliban central bank, which has demanded it back. It matters not that the Taliban defeated the Pentagon and the CIA and forced them to exit the country. The money still rightly belongs to the Afghan government.

President Biden and the Pentagon, however, have decided to steal it. They say that they are going to use half the money to compensate the victims of 9-11-01 and the other half for "humanitarian aid." Oh, are they not such good, caring, and compassionate people? Who would have known?

But they are not. They are nothing more than common thieves. They have no moral or legal right to steal that money, no matter what they do with it. The money belongs to the Afghan government.

Moreover, the Taliban regime never had anything to do with the 9-11-01 attacks, and no one, including the victims of 9-11-01, has ever provided any evidence to the contrary.

The only reason that the George W. Bush regime ordered the invasion of Afghanistan was because the Taliban refused his unconditional extradition demand for Osama bin Laden, which the Taliban had the legal right to do given that there was no extradition treaty between the two countries. The Bush regime never provided one iota of evidence indicating that the Taliban were complicit in the 9-11-01 attacks and neither have any of the 9-11-01 victims.

Moreover, the notion that President Biden and the Pentagon are going to be "humanitarian" with the Talibans money is laughable.

They could not care less about humanitarian concerns among the Afghan people. Remember: There was never an upward limit on the number of Afghan people they were willing to kill, maim, and injure in the process of bringing "enduring freedom" and "womens rights" to Afghanistan.

Keep in mind also that 99 percent of the people they killed, maimed, and injured and whose homes and businesses were destroyed by United States bombs for 20 long years had nothing to do with the 9-11-01 attacks.

After wreaking so much death, suffering, and destruction on the people of Afghanistan, President Biden and the Pentagon need to do the right thing.

They need to lift those deadly and destructive sanctions and finally leave the Afghan people alone.

They also need to return the Afghan governments money to the Afghan government. Behaving like vicious common thieves seeking revenge and retribution for their defeat does not reflect well on the United States.
