Perspective from a South Vietnamese American

[lark]

6. I was afraid to open and read this, but am so very glad I did.

Thank you for wring this, it provides a much needed prospective. It's so important to realize that the majority of Afghan men never wanted to change, never wanted to give women any freedom. We are the invaders, the occupiers and never had the buy in of most of the people. This was pretty much inevitable. I do fault the military guys for wearing blinders of choice and that pisses me off. They could and should have done so much better on the evacuation but the drumpf enabled taliban was way too strong and the afghanis writ large don't give a shit about protecting the women.
