The Taliban is attacking Iran in what might be one of the most blatant fucking proxy wars in human history and the Pro-Ukraine talking heads can’t even pretend that they didn’t immediately switch teams. I hate them so much it’s unreal.
I am putting a correction notice here, there is/was a water dispute between Iran and Afganistan, and while there have been clashes, the border seems to have calmed down,
Hey, could you elaborate a little on this?
The instant the attacks started, Ukrainian news orgs took credit in a way because it was implied that this all had to do with Iran’s drone production. They definetly jumped the gun on it because suddenly supporting the Taliban was already starting to discredit them. Still though, the timing of all that was fishy as hell.
