Just now: Fox News had a quick clip of a couple of Taliban soldiers that looked an awful lot like non-middle eastern men. Looked like white folks to me...mercenaries, maybe? One had sunglasses on and had dark beard and other had red/brown hair and black plastic bag or black silk scarf for face amd head covering...holding AK and wearing woodland camo.

Anyone else see that?

Had the same thought about black silk scarf guy. More Anglo than middle East.

It wouldn't surprise me. When ISIS was in it's heyday it seemed like every week some white American idiot was running over there to sign up with them. Some probably ended up in the Taliban

I've seen a lot of pictures of Afghanis with different colored hair and beards... They aren't strictly a Semitic (Jew/Arab) people with middle eastern features... Dark complexion, black hair, brown eyes.

Reddish hair/beards are not uncommon amongst them.

But you very well may have seen a foreigner too.

Ive seen pics of many Afghan people....very light skin, light-colored eyes...

..but those 2 dudes would pass for US special ops guys.

Boco is probably right...Russian mercenaries.

You think China will fare better than USA or USSR ?? China ain't going to get mired down in Afghanistan, they got world domination plans. Afghanistan don't amount to a fart in a whirlwind....


you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

Alexander the Great plowed a lot of fields and sowed a lot of seed in that region. Im sure his men helped too.

Is it Russia Russia Russia or Americans? whistle
In my defense, i dont really want to know the answer either way.
It pains my heart, but yeah, they seemed "off" to me as well.
Not the same as those who have lived the desert life.
Full cheeks, well fed.

They sure caught my suspicious eye. Lol

If they hadnt been standing along street with other obvious Taliban I would have they were another country's special ops guys....or maybe ours.



You saw it too!!!

The Chinese will walk through those guys like they are blades of grass. And there wont be one word of backlash from the folks back in China. Well not that anyone will hear of anyways.

I didn't see that, but they'd better make sure they vet these "refugees" they bring over here.
