The Taliban has put up a spokesperson to issue a response to President Trump's incendiary statement about being able to win the Afghanistan War in a week if he was willing to kill 10 million Afghans, and that spokesperson is she:
She spoke in slightly broken and heavily accented English, but it wasn't bad, and I think it's amazing that she could speak it so well. And, it certainly sounded like she understood what she was saying. This is what she said:
"Mr. Trump: don't mess with us. You better know that Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires. It is good that you are (caught in) lies. You are not fighting with a group, but with a nation, a nation which is not defeated throughout the history."
And this is what she did when she said "the history."
Donald, you're not going to kill her, are you? You've already killed a lot of little girls like her, and so did both your predecessors, Obama and Bush. You've all got a river of the blood of children on your hands, the three of you. But, you're not going to kill her now, are you? It's not going to make America safe. It's not going to make America great again. It's not going to stop terrorists. If you want to stop terrorists, stop being one. You've admitted that the Iraq War was a "mistake," and it 's an odd way to describe the killing of a million Iraqis. But now, you need to admit that that the Afghanistan War was equally a mistake. Both wars were crimes against humanity. You need to get out of there. And stop thinking you are going to leave behind a large intelligence force. This little girl is telling you no.
