[KhaamaPress] Italian TG1 News Network has revealed an investigative report showing that Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi...
had paid Ashraf Ghani
...former chancellor of Kabul University, ex-president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. When Biden abandoned the country left with a helicopter, four cars, and part of the national treasury...

...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
fighters.

This network has published the document of receipt of this money by Ajmal Ahmadi, the special representative of Ashraf Ghani and the former head of the Central Bank of Afghanistan, from the representative of Qatar.

The Italian state-run network has published a document that indicates the receipt of $110,478,000 from Dr. Mutlaq AL-Qahtani, the representative of Qatar signed by Ajmal Ahmadi, the special representative of Ashraf Ghani on July 7, 2021.

The archive of Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs indicates that Mr. Qahtani was in Kabul, and had met with Ashraf Ghani at the Presidential Palace (Arg) on July 7, 2021.

It is further highlighted in the letter for what reason the money was granted to Ashraf Ghani. However,
there's more than one way to stuff a chicken...
five weeks after the payment of the sum at the Embassy of Qatar in Kabul, Ashraf Ghani fled, and the Taliban entered Kabul.

Filippo Rossi, a renowned Italian journalist who conducted this investigative research states that this report has been provided based on reviewing documents and talking to reliable sources.

He says, Ashraf Ghani in a speech in the country’s Parliament on August 2, called on the people of Afghanistan to fight against the Taliban, while districts and picturesque provincial capitals were falling to the Taliban one after another with the least resistance.

According to Mr. Rossi, the Afghan cops were commanded from Kabul not to resist and retreat, instead. Prior to this, other reports existed that certain high-ranking security officials across the country claimed that they were dictated by Kabul not to fight.

General Murad Ali Murad, former Deputy Interior Minister of Defense, in a special interview with Afghan International said that Afghan National Army was well-trained and militarily equipped, However,
there's more than one way to stuff a chicken...
due to a grand regional and global conspiracy, the government collapsed and the Taliban appeared triumphant.

#3  ...And this is suprising, why exactly?

The Afghan 'leadership' never regarded us as any more than a piggy bank, and they certainly never had any intention of actually trying to run a country.
