Kabul Kaputt

Nicholas R. Jeelvy

Even Rambo wasn’t able to bring democracy to Afghanistan.

1,278 words

This essay is dedicated to the brave mujahideen fighters of Afghanistan.

After almost 20 years, it is finally over. The American-led coalition began to withdraw from Afghanistan in May, which then was retaken by the Taliban even before the withdrawal was complete.

Images have been pouring in all weekend of the fall of Kabul to Taliban fighters, with an iconic photograph being taken of a Chinook helicopter evacuating personnel from the roof of the US embassy, evoking a similar picture of a Chinook helicopter evacuating personnel from the US embassy in Saigon, at the end of the Vietnam war. The world watches with a mixture of amusement and elation as the world’s biggest, strongest, and gayest empire suffers an embarrassing defeat at the hands of a small group of toothless peasants armed only with AK-47s and unwavering religious conviction.

“Not true, we weren’t defeated, they didn’t beat us. The Biden administration just withdrew!” cries the cuckservative, echoing his Vietnam-era antecedent. But this kind of response is blind to the nature of guerrilla warfare, or indeed warfare in general. A guerrilla doesn’t engage the obviously superior enemy in open combat, but rather wages warfare by staying alive, deception, concealment, hit-and-run tactics, attacking soft targets, challenging logistics, and raising the cost of occupation. It is the ultimate in Bewegungskrieg — maneuver warfare — whose ideal is always to win by maneuvering with minimum engagement. To win a guerrilla war is to outlast your enemy. As long as a guerrilla exists, he’s winning, and when the occupying force buggers off and the guerrilla is still operating . . . well, the guerrilla wins. The notion that victory goes to he who wins the most battles, or who kills the most of the enemy, is a Rambo view of warfare, which is to say a view of war as spectacle and not as a serious matter of resolving conflicts of sovereignty and survival.

There’s arguments to be made that Biden arsed-up the American forces’ retreat. There were unconfirmed rumors during 2019 and 2020 that President Trump was negotiating a settlement with the Taliban which would have given them control of Afghanistan, in which case America could have received at least some sort of return on her 20-year investment in blood, prestige, and treasure but as we all know, the traitors in the Department of Defense refused to obey the President’s orders to initiate an orderly withdrawal from Afghanistan.

What has happened now, under the Biden administration, is that the Afghan government has fallen and has been replaced by a new Taliban government, which at the time of writing (August 16) has already been recognized by China, and will likely be recognized by Russia, Iran, and Pakistan soon enough, which will mean the international recognition of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. There were rumors that the Biden administration hoped to destabilize Afghanistan and in turn further destabilize China’s Xinjiang region, which is majority Muslim and borders Afghanistan, as it has recently seen unrest and internecine warfare by the Uyghur Muslim population and a heavy-handed response from the Peking government.

Unfortunately, the globohomo empire seems to fundamentally misunderstand the nature of order and chaos. Specifically, I can imagine that none of the over-130 IQ advisors, foreign policy experts, geostrategists, generals, and other types of swamp creatures had even the vaguest notion that Taliban rule might bring order and stability, and that US-enforced democratic rule only lead to ultra-corrupt governments where various tribes were jockeying for position in order to extort one another. In practice, there is no rule of law outside of Kabul. They could have looked at the example of the Soviet-backed Communist regime of the 1980s, which in practice merely acted as Kabul’s city council — but history and blind arrogance don’t really mix.

What will be the consequences of this 20-year-long war? Syrian Girl seems to think that the notion of the “humanitarian war” will finally be discredited, but personally, I don’t think that many minds will be changed as a result of this debacle. If anyone still believed in humanitarian war after the 2011 Libyan quagmire, Afghanistan won’t be able to teach them anything.

More immediately, we’ll probably see an influx of bootlickers, feminists, defectives, corrupt officials, and pedophiles who’ll arrive in the West as “refugees.” They’ll no doubt inflict their social pathologies on our already weakened and battered societies. But on the plus side, the Dissident Right had a very good year in 2015, when the migrant crisis hit Europe. Wave upon wave of the dregs of Afghan society might serve as a high-speed redpill dispenser.

The balance of power in Central Asia might also be affected. A look at a map tells us Afghanistan is a land bridge between Chinese-held Xinjiang and Chinese-aligned Iran on the one hand, and between Russian-aligned Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, through the Khyber pass and Pakistan to India, on the other. It also sits on a trillion dollars’ worth of known mineral reserves (which the previous government was too incompetent to mine). Both Moscow and Peking will therefore surely rush to court the Taliban, and indeed, the Chinese have already hammered out an understanding with the Taliban.

In all probability, these deals were made a long time ago, and were just waiting for the fall of Kabul to go into effect. What is certain is that with the loss of Afghanistan and Pakistan’s realignment towards the Chinese sphere, America has lost almost all influence in this region. I have a theory that as American power wanes, we’ll see an intensification of the Sino-Russian geopolitical conflict, as Moscow and Peking may no longer consider Washington a big enough threat to cause them to put their many differences aside. The aftermath of Kabul’s fall will provide empirical evidence for or against my theory. I fully expect a diplomatic race between China and Russia to court the Taliban. It’ll be a seller’s market in Afghanistan.

But the most relevant effect for us might be the response of the white American population to this event. Whereas 20 years ago, Americans cheered as the US military toppled the Taliban regime and established the “democratic” Afghan government, the reaction today to that same process playing out in reverse has been a mixture of disinterest and enthusiasm for the Taliban. People are making comparisons with the fall of Saigon, but significant segments of the American public didn’t cheer the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese army as they conquered South Vietnam.

Considering that white Americans are the primary recruitment pool for globohomo’s armies, their reaction to this defeat is a portent of the weakening of the American Empire. As I predicted some time ago, the American military’s biggest weakness is its incoming dearth of personnel, as economic and cultural factors deter white Americans from serving. The withdrawal from Afghanistan comes on the heels of a sustained program to humiliate, demoralize, and ultimately destroy white Americans. Why should they feel patriotic? Why should they serve in the military that enforces anti-white rule and cordons off the nation’s capital to protect the corrupt ruling class? Why should they weep for globohomo’s defeats in far-flung regions of the world?

Having alienated its soldier caste through its domestic program of anti-white hate, the American Empire is now living on borrowed time as the best and brightest white young men increasingly refuse to serve in its armies and staff its institutions. Does this mean that we will win? No, we are but one faction vying for power in the wake of this declining empire. But it means that we’re closer to the end than we were last Friday. And for that, we should thank the brave mujahideen of Afghanistan.

    We should shut up about Afghanistan, now. Simply do not comment, online or irl. Think of the motherly adage about saying nothing if we don’t have anything nice to say. The establishment is preparing to associate the right with the taliban. Don’t give them the rope by which they will hang us. Expect that every comment on every website is cataloged somewhere. It’s no wonder that pro-white ideas don’t achieve traction with mainstream America with articles like these. Thousands of Americans were maimed and killed by the taliban. Biden supporters are so far gone that they will try and run interference for him even on this geopolitical calamity for the US. The wise thing to do if asked your opinion at work is to attack Biden as normies would for his pathetic weakness/malfeasance, not to ghettoize ourselves with edgelord takes. There are few faster ways to alienate normal people than talking about how based and red pilled islam is. Life is not a game.

      No one cares about ‘optics’ anymore. Worrying about what your enemy is going to do to hurt you only matters if you have a way to deter them or exploit it. I’m not pro-Taliban. I’m anti-ZOG. ZOG lost and that makes me happy no matter how it happens and there’s no reason for any pro-White White to ‘hold their tongue’ for fear of what ZOG’s media minions are going to do. For every person appalled by the ‘oo-rah’ of the White Right on the loss of Afghanistan, there are five people who are saying ‘Damned straight’.

      Some of Trumps base is to brain-broke to remember that they supported getting out of ME war but a bunch aren’t. That’s the group that matters.

      A ragged band of armed men who believe in something overpowered the proxies of a transnational order that preaches greed, materialism and the compulsory abnegation of traditional values. Radical Feminism, Transgender Liberation, Depolicing and all the other demoralising cultural insanity that gets recycled daily via the elite media suddenly look brittle and vulnerable! One does not have to endorse the Taleban to see a lesson in that.

      It’s not be the dissident right arming the Taliban with Colt M4’s, javelin missile systems and black hawk helicopters. It’s Joe Biden and his merry band of degenerate globalist idiots doing that. Everything they touch dies of cancer and rot. And they KNOW it now. They can see the shadows growing long. They will look for a domestic proxy to blame. Someone to push around. An easy enemy to fight and destroy. But all they will do is forge an even greater enemy than the Taliban by doing this. And when it’s all over nature will rush back in and reassert itself here just like it did in Afghanistan. And everything they spent their lives and generations our or people trying to create will be torn down and thrown to the four winds and forgotten about.” There can be no war of attrition against the infinite.” Comes to mind…

      As a Christian, I certainly do not advocate for Islam. But there is much to appreciate and respect about the brave Taliban lads who defeated this satanic empire. They rejected feminism, Zionism, and other poisonous ideas foisted upon them by the occupying forces. They embrace the natural order, hierarchy, patriarchy, tradition, and frankly a much more sane world view than that which we in the West are currently subjected to by our ruling class. I think if these things are pointed out to normal conservative white men (with the exception of the Zionist part for the most part), me would find few disagreements. Probably best to avoid the topic with women though.

    hmmm. I don’t know about that. Maybe there weren’t cheers if jubilation, but I think there was a significant segment of the left who harbored pro-communist sympathies and spent the better part of the 60s undermining the Vietnam war. Not that I don’t agree that Vietnam was an enormous waste of blood, time, and treasure, but I do believe the geo-political struggle of the Cold War was justified, and Vietnam was just one Act in that struggle.

          He said more or less the same thing you said about the US war in Vietnam. There was going to be a specific fight with the wider world of communists someplace and it just happened to be there. Maybe it’s true. I do suspect the airfields around Saigon were vitally and strategically important to hold in order to deny USSR bombers a home base that could quickly attack Singapore and Manila.

      Over at the Z Man blog, he makes the point today in his latest post that the chaotic fall of Kabul is a good example of why optics DO matter. This is all very bad optics for the cloud people who rule us. It will be an albatross for them as the American people become further disillusioned.

       

      At the same time, optics do matter for those of us who are dissidents. It is possible to voice sympathies toward the Davids of the world in their conflict with Goliath without openly celebrating this or trying to give the Taliban a “facelift”. Our people, normal working class type people who have nationalist and populist sympathies, will never embrace fundamentalist Islam. The best we can hope to do is explain to them that it is *not our business*, and that they have a right to their own system and customs and that imposing our system on them is never going to work.

      It was real but subdued out in flyover.  Keep in mind they weren’t too sure about ANYTHING happening in Vietnam, but they sure hated blue collar whites, the early version of deplorables.  Between the movie Joe with Peter Boyle (the most hate-filled movie ever made in the USA!) and the trucker’s strike, by the time Saigon fell there were too many reasons to hate the working class without the war.  This was why Jane Fonda (etc) moved their protests to nuclear power and feminism.  Just like now you’re just going to see a doubling-down on the crap du jour — White Privilege 2.0 and some heavy promotions of perversity.  Get ready.

    Printed this, highlighted the most important notes, and will present it to my 17 year old son tonight. He wants so badly to be patriotic, join the military and fight for the “good” side. I am heartbroken to tell him that hasn’t been the US government for quite some time. I don’t know where this all ends up, but I am not handing over my boy for their grotesque games. Maybe teaching him to think like a guerrilla isn’t such a bad idea.

    “There were unconfirmed rumors during 2019 and 2020 that President Trump was negotiating a settlement with the Taliban which would have given them control of Afghanistan.”

    Can you elaborate on this?  What did we get in return for the Taliban getting control?

    I hate to put on my tinfoil hat, but this has the look of a manufactured refugee crisis.  I think there’s already a plane load of Afghans at some air force base.  You can be sure there will be even more and they’ll get resettled in red districts and red states and will be part of an amnesty deal.

      “What did we get in return for Taliban control?” How about a massive dose of hope that victory against the satanic system currently in place in the West is possible for us, and inspiration? We are going to get massive amounts of 3rd world “refugees” from wherever, no matter what, until we regain control of our destiny. That’s the unfortunate current reality. There are positives and negatives to any situation, and in my opinion the situation in Afghanistan is a net positive for us.

    I have a theory that as American power wanes, we’ll see an intensification of the Sino-Russian geopolitical conflict, as Moscow and Peking may no longer consider Washington a big enough threat to cause them to put their many differences aside.

    True, although it’ll be a very slow change, in my opinion (unless USA implodes faster than expected). Russia being the weaker great power needs allies against China, which means Washington would have to play another “reset” farce with Moscow. That means solving the ukrainian crisis and telling the rest of the eastern provinces to go piss up a rope for now. Belarussian “democracy” would also need to wait for better days.

    There is also the pipeline-politics issue. Ukrainian crisis sanctions forced Russians to sign the gas contract in 2014 (between Gazprom and CNPC) on less favourable terms than they wished, but the chinese economic cooperation (fuel purchases among them) is crucial for Kremlin.  Military/space technology purchases, economic revitalization of the Russian Far East with investments. To provide a counter-incentive American Empire would need to pump at least an equivalent of 50 billion USD worth of yearly investments and trade contracts into the russian economy. Sure, Kremlin isn’t happy about China getting bolder in Central Asia and Mongolia, but they’re not powerless in counteracting their moves. Plus, the Russian diplomacy is several class higher than the American one which means they don’t waste resources on pointless buffoonery.

    As for the Empire of Nothing disgracefully scrambling from the Graveyard of the Empires, like with all its political endeavors lately, it ended with a farce. While this event should bring joy to all enemies of the liberal superpower, it was somewhat cheapened by the way everything crumbled silently almost overnight. As if nothing (heh) was there in the first place. (White) people bled for this for generations, including the auxilia from my own country. Money made predominantly from white sweat and blood was pumped into this unmitigated disaster of an expedition. And in the end it was all for naught, white nations will only collect the immediate fallout in the form of immigrants. Complete political bankruptcy that will be bailed out by the oligarchy again, with public money and white blood. Cutting this pipeline that allows to burn away the social capital and deteriorate the biological substance of the nations should become a paramount objective for those who bear ambitions of stripping away the imperial carcass in the future. No more cannon fodder for the globalist mercenary forces, no more support for upholding “human rights” worldwide.

    I salute this victory of the Afghan people. Mullah Addul Ghani Barardar has issued a general amnesty and an invitation to the women of Afghanistan to participate in the government and life of the nation—under islamic guidelines. They’re probably saying this to keep the development aid from Germany and Scandinavia rolling in.

    What they are actually doing so far is removing any and every image of women from public view; billboards, magazines, beauty shops, TV and internet. As well, actual women are going back under the drop cloths and tarps.  They are keeping the airport open because they want all foreigners to leave; they only slap around the Afghans who want to leave the country.

    The Taliban hate everybody Allah hates. They hate Chinese communists who eat dogs, cats, and bats as well as Russians whether Marxist Leninist or Orthodox. They hate Shi’a, Hindu, and Nazarini, but above all they hate those who persecute Muslims or oppose Sharia. The last twenty years has not been an insurrection to them—it has been a Jihad which they have struggled and won.

    I doubt this victory will lead to national unity and stability. Far more likely the place will revert to feuds and tribalism. The largest ‘unexplored reserves’ of copper, coal, iron, gas, cobalt, mercury, gold and lithium will remain in the ground.

    The only perspective we should ever adopt is that of white interests. Is issue x good or bad for (or perhaps immaterial to) ultimate white preservation, and short term white power? Every non-racial issue should be assessed from this perspective. And when contemplating “larger world” issues, prowhites need to think of ourselves as an already diasporic people. The only Great Game that we should involves ourselves in, either politically or emotionally, is the one focused on stanching the hemorrhaging of white power and security on all fronts. The Biden-caused (and yes, the fall of Kabul is directly attributable to the incompetence and deep unseriousness of the current Admin, and esp its “leader’) Afghanistan disaster will benefit whites in myriad ways in the future, from souring our gullible population on future nation-building exercises, to greater public examination of the “wokeness” of our modern military, to haunting the Democrats politically for the next several years.
