      Taliban and ISIS are very different religiously. Taliban is extremist but generally practices traditional Sunni Islam: Maturidi Theology, Hanafi Jurisprudence, Naqshabandi Sufism (Spirituality). ISIS isn't just extremist, it follows a modern religious sect called Salafism. They reject traditional Sunni Islam and consider them heretics and should be murdered. Their Theology is anthropomorphic and literalist; they follow no school in Jurisprudence and they interpret directly from the sources however they like; they reject Sufism in its entirety. That's why they hate each other as much as they hate Shiites. People keep called Al-Qaida and ISIS Sunni when they have been taking direct aim at Sunni establishments. They are far more insane, brutal and deviant.

      @@DoubleBullet The idea that ISIS is non existent in Syria and Iraq is another misconception. They're still there, they've just retransitioned back into a guerilla army from a more conventional force. They hide in the desert between Syria and Iraq and among Bedouin communities that inhabit the area, most of whom hold sympathies to IS. They are have a significant presence in almost every Sunni majority governorate in Iraq, with a more limited presence in the predominantly Shia south. They also have a large presence in their former Syrian territories now occupied by Kurdish communist forces. With regards to IS-KP, IS as a group maintains consistent contact with their worldwide branches, or as they call them, Provinces. But they also allow a lot of autonomy for those branches too far from Iraq and Syria, such as IS-KP, ISWAP (Islamic State West Africa Province), ISCAP (Islamic State Central Africa Province), and many others.

    Taliban and ISIS-k are mortal enemies. Believing Taliban are complicit. The idea of a shadow government isn't known in the United States. Dunno if NATO allies explained that negotiations with Taliban, is like negotiating with Labor and not even including Boris Johnson. Those bombing were to destroy Taliban credibility and draw recruits.

    Lemme point this out.
    The ANA did not want us there. From the track record of green-on-blue to the consistent retreat of its forces, to the almost immediate surrender a couple weeks ago, you can see it. I was on the ground for maybe a day when i noticed it first. Half of them are former mujahedeen or their kids, and the other half are terrified. Also, this war is civil in nature to their eyes, so both sides wanted NATO gone. Every time a leader said so, he was conveniently replaced (except for Kuwait, which retained its monarchy).
    The only reason ISIS and the Taliban are fighting each other is political- which also makes them all the bad guys, as according to Sharia, you go to hell for killing outside of jihad.
    So, why they still fighting? Sorry, but its the same answer- money and power. And we have precisely zero place interfering with that, regardless of our interest in the matter. They didn't want us there, and the moment we left, they picked up and kept right on finishing their war.

      Taliban and ISIS are very different religiously. Taliban is extremist but generally practices traditional Sunni Islam: Maturidi Theology, Hanafi Jurisprudence, Naqshabandi Sufism (Spirituality). ISIS isn't just extremist, it follows a modern religious sect called Salafism. They reject traditional Sunni Islam and consider them heretics and should be murdered. Their Theology is anthropomorphic and literalist; they follow no school in Jurisprudence and they interpret directly from the sources however they like; they reject Sufism in its entirety. That's why they hate each other as much as they hate Shiites. People keep called Al-Qaida and ISIS Sunni when they have been taking direct aim at Sunni establishments. They are far more insane, brutal and deviant.
