They are helpless sitting ducks.
Soon to be lumps of decaying cold meats along the opium field,
known as the blessing of the Holy Allah.
I am sure they shouted as they are killed, "Allahu Akbar" (The God is Great).
Don't you envy them??
Such a thing will not happen in Korea, no matter what regime comes upon them.
It's because they do not rely on the blessings of Allah.

At the end of 2019, Afghans still constituted the third-largest forcibly displaced population in the world, at almost 6 million refugees and internally displaced people, with some 380,000 added in 2020 alone. Due to persistent insecurity and instability in Afghanistan, coupled with economic and environmental challenges, external and internal displacement are often intertwined, as people are forced to move repeatedly either within the country or across borders. Although the Afghan economy has almost doubled in size since 2007, Afghanistan still ranks 169th (out of 189 countries) on the U.N.’s 2020 Human Development Index, particularly due to its fragile education and healthcare systems. As one expert noted, under these conditions, Afghans have long used mobility as a coping mechanism, “and they are unlikely to stop any time soon.” Scarce socio-economic prospects in neighboring Iran and Pakistan, which host 87 percent of Afghan refugees, is leading to secondary migration by Afghan youth and some desperate families hoping to find sustainable livelihoods in Europe.
*Is Taliban Afghan people's enemy? It is certainly the enemy of U.S. and NATO nations.
I would like to see what happens after Taliban takes over Afghan government.

One thing we should make clear is that "Afghan Withdrawal by the U.S."
is not done by Joe Biden. It was negotiated by Donald Trump in 2020 with the Taliban
without the participation of the Afghan government.
Trump promised the Taliban that the U.S. would withdraw entire American forces by May 1, 2021.
Joe Biden could have ignored Trump's promise but he had to follow the Trump-Taliban treaty
under the pressure of the American people.
Trump had said it and Biden said the same thing.
As one of the beneficiaries of America's help for Korea,
I feel that America must rescue all the vulnerable Afghans described
in this report. God help America and all those vulnerable freedoms loving
Afghans, just as HE did with 흥남철수 and Saigon evacuation.
