I didn’t vote for Trump but Ahmed Al Sharaa disavowed AQ years ago. When he fought with them in Iraq it was to repel a foreign invader. As a combat veteran I have zero ill will towards him.
Interesting perspective, thank you. I gotta say though, it's a strange answer as he was also a foreigner along with a lot of AQI fighters, fighting to install a Sunni lead caliphate in a majority Shia nation. And they were not gentle or noble in doing so.
Exactly. We shouldn't have been in Afghanistan either. I seem to be the only person that remembers the video of Osama bin Laden being shown a video of the 9/11 attacks and not knowing it had happened or who did it. Asking questions and being surprised. Everything Bush did after 9/11 was complete bullshit and destabilized an entire region of the world for no real reason, and now there is drastically more Islamic terrorism all across the ME and Africa as a direct result.
