That really doesn’t suit USA as that’s how not were they planning to paint Taliban. So the spin machines had to be set spinning again and concoct something else. That’s a lot of work!
CIA inside job?
Should consider himself lucky his fate isn’t that of Hussein or Ghadafi. Is Taliban more civilized than the democrats of the West ??
The Iraqi and Libyan leaders never left their countries so they were assassinated?
Given minimum casualties and speedy overthrown of central government, I may call this the most “peaceful” war I have ever heard of!

None of this level of concerns pointed to the actual culprits of the Invasion itself and, the ones in Iraq, Syria and the ongoing in Yemen! Who caused millions civilians replacement, refugees & deaths.
