Its time that the West worried about the rest and left the rest of the world to their own devices.
The Americans had invaded this hell hole almost 17 years ago. And still it is the same hell hole it was for the past 2,000 years. Before that, it was the turn of the Russians.

At the same press conference NATO's Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that following a Taliban attack on Kabul airport that day, which he described as "a sign of weakness, not of strength," he "would like commend the Afghan Security Forces which are handling these kind of attacks and it is yet another example of how professional they are, how committed they are and how they are able to handle this kind of security threat." (In September the US Air Force dropped more bombs on Afghanistan "than in any other month for nearly seven years.")
In the following month, from October 17 to 23, there were six major insurgent attacks which demonstrated that the militants are far from weak:
