I saw this Tim Anderson tweet in a Niqnaq post: a story from the Tehran Times, "U.S. Caught Helping ISIS Commanders Escape from Taliban Prison in Afghanistan," about U.S. special forces busting "40 Daesh ringleaders" out of a Taliban prison in Badghis Province, Afghanistan, and helicoptering them away to safety.
It makes you wonder if Islamic State's presence in Afghanistan has been orchestrated by the United States from the very beginning. I'm watching the Netflix series Narcos. I knew next to nothing about Pablo Escobar and the Medellín Cartel. The Medellín Cartel is eventually superseded by the Cali Cartel thanks to the intercession of the CIA and the ultra-right anticommunist paramilitary organization of the Castaño Brothers.
Afghanistan is no different from the Narco wars in Colombia. Fight terror with terror; it's a preferred method of the CIA.
