Taliban made off with all the cash on the way out the door
Washington Post runs a front-page article on how the mullahs looted the country as the going got tough. They hauled the money away in sacks, five and six million dollars at a time, totaling around $100 million.
That's a lot of protection money. And a nice little retirement fund when Mullah Omar turns up in Monaco or Biarritz with a shave and a bath and a new wifelet or two.
