The Documentary of Key Logistical Factors that Accounted for the Takeover by the Taliban in 2021
On August 15, a day of sorrow and grief,
Afghanistan was taken over by the Taliban, a thief.
Known as terrorists, spreading fear and dismay,
They shadowed a land that once knew a brighter day.
O, my beloved flag, with colors pure and bold,
A symbol of unity, stories yet untold.
Black, red, and green, a triumphant embrace,
Conveying love profound, in each vibrant trace.
In a glass house, ruled by stone men’s might,
Ethereal panes shimmer in the moonlight;
A delicate fortress, where secrets reside,
Whispered tales locked in shadows, they confide.
In a city of dreams, shadows are cast,
Where Kohl’s sellers dwell, enchantments amassed.
Eyes blinded by wonders, a sight to behold,
A tale of allure, though often untold.
In Evils’ cave, where shadows reside,
A captive soul yearns for love’s gentle tide.
My heart, encased in sorrow’s steel embrace,
Longs for solace, a fleeting warm embrace.
My surface gives you life,
But below is death;
Afghanistan is rife,
And I take out the wrath.
The weapons
Wrapped in the clad
Sealed up with the
Stamp of religion
On one hand
An elegance looks
Qur’anic countenance and hermeneutic tresses
Speaks verses of love
Physique as sculpture of Ajanta
Roman and Rumi’an rumination
Afghanistan, a country rich in mineral resources, has been a battleground for various factions vying for control over its lucrative mining sector.
The fall of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan in 2001 marked a turning point in the country’s history. However, the aftermath of their rule has been far from stable.
The takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban has had far-reaching consequences, particularly for the millions of Afghans who have been forced to flee their homeland.
The takeover of Afghanistan by the Taliban has sent shockwaves across the globe, raising concerns about the fate of women’s rights in the country. With a history of oppressive rule, the Taliban’s return to power has once again plunged Afghanistan into a dark era, particularly for its female population.
The United States failed to make Pakistan cooperating the way it was needed; United States could not put the required pressure on Pakistan to use its influence on Taliban for the peace process that had taken at least three years.
