The Jerusalem Post quoted an Israeli writer and expert, Seth Frantzman, as saying about Israel’s outlook on the fall of the Afghan government and the Taliban’s takeover of the country and its impact on US political power, especially in the West. Published by Asia.
The article says that the rapid fall of the Afghan government and the shock of US political and military officials, as well as experts, on the speed with which the Taliban have taken control of Afghanistan represent a major challenge facing the United States now. Now, after the fall of Afghanistan, the United States must reassure its allies and partners where it will stay in the world.
The author of this article added that while US officials are talking about endless wars and wasting billions of dollars around the world, there are concerns about what will happen next. This is especially true in the Middle East; Where US partners and allies ask themselves whether Washington is only pursuing its own interests in other countries?
The article goes on to describe the US position on Saudi Arabia and Egypt, two countries that were once pillars of US foreign policy, and there are concerns about that. In addition, US support for normalization agreements between Arab countries and Israel is a major issue.
On the other hand, there are concerns about the US role in Iraq and Syria, the Jerusalem Post wrote; Whether the fall of the Afghan government will erode trust in Washington and its claims to regional affairs.
According to this Israeli article, the United States has a long history of intervening in various countries over the past few decades, leading to small wars and long wars, meaning that the United States had set its strategy to start in a country like Iraq. Under the pretext of humanitarian goals and claiming to prevent the use of weapons of mass destruction, the country entered it and then said that it seeks to fight terrorism. But all this is just a claim and a myth, and what happened in Afghanistan is the result of that.
The Zionist writer emphasized, but the United States, wherever it went, destroyed those countries in general, and the nations suffered terrible poverty and misery; From Iraq to Syria, from Afghanistan to Somalia, from Haiti to Panama. The United States has sent troops to a large number of countries around the world, and it has since become clear that the results are not good for them.
“Perhaps this is one of the consequences of a turbulent world order, and perhaps the turbulent situation in countries like Libya and Yemen cannot be blamed on the United States in general,” Seth Frantzman wrote. But the United States is a factor, and its mismanagement or failed attempt to establish internal security forces in those countries has created this situation. In this regard, an important question for Afghanistan is where its air force has been among the Taliban in the past month and a half.
