The two bravest dudes on the planet: Locals in Kabul replace the Taliban flag with the Afghan national tricolour
[CFP] Original title: These two won't be alive long

Historic defiance against Taliban by Afghan nationals. Locals in Kabul replace the Taliban flag with the Afghan national tricolour flag at the famous Abdul Haq Square. Loud noise cheering from behind audible. Several protests against Taliban held, waving the Afghan flag.

Also: It's raining gunfire outside Kabul Airport. How could any American possibly get through this gauntlet.

#2 The Taliban are going door to door confiscating any weapons BB6454, probably because they fear exactly what you suggest.

#3 Apparently the Panjshir valley is less than enthusiastic to see them back. What comes of it remains to be seen.
