    Giving the taliban 4 billion dollars is definitely going to improve the living situation

      Holy shit, right? Is lemmy populated by children?

      “Hey let’s give the Taliban 4 billion USD. That will surely fix the country”

      Absolute insanity. I feel like I’m in the bizzaro world.

      The taliban may not have taken control if the puppet government we established there had any funds to pay their employees.

        Yes. And we shouldn’t give the Taliban 4 billion dollars.
