An American who lives in Afghanistan recently told me that attacks on former US allies are purely personal revenge attacks and not related to the current Taliban governments policy.
This attack clearly calls that assessment into question. A man formerly unknown to him attacked him, who sent that person?
This is another example of the perilous nature of the lives of our former allies. They stood with us we need to stand for our shared values and support them
Actually it’s a scientist involved in a rural farming self sufficiency initiative partner is Afghan.
I think it’s true it may not be written policy, or public policy, but it’s not sought out as a crime and generally it’s a person in authority committing these crimes.
Arrest without sufficient evidence often mistreated, tortured, some killed.
The US had and has a duty to protect these men, women and families who stood with us during this war, not just leave them to suffer and die because they helped protect our troops.
Given the lack of an effective opposition to the actions of the current duly elected U.S. administration I expect things to get much worse before they could possibly get better. As of today we are all Abrego Garcia.

What kind of American is living in, or would even be allowed to live in, Afghanistan other than a Taliban sympathizer?
