Afghanistan withdrawal is best decision for American people

Imagine going two decades back in civilization where you are sexualized for your gender, objectified for your attire and swayed from your basic human rights. 

That is now the case in Afghanistan, which just came under the law of the Taliban.

American troops have been in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban for 20 years. But President Joe Biden announced in April his decision to take the American troops out of Afghanistan. 

While some might see this as a betrayal, it was the best decision he could make for his people.

The Taliban—formed in 1994—is a group of resistance fighters that now has full control over Afghanistan. It is enforcing laws that are autocratic and demoralizing. 

With the law in hands of the Taliban, the future of women and children in Afghanistan is at stake. 

Afghan people are ready to flee from their own country. They just want to go to a peaceful place where they can have security for their family and life. 

When people are threatened, betrayed and unprotected in their own country, there is no way they can lead a quality life. 

Terrified Afghan people are waiting to be evacuated from their own country to feel safe. 

While it is the responsibility of other countries to feel empathetic toward the people of Afghanistan and extend them helping hands, it is also necessary for other countries to protect their people first.

An ally-ship between countries can be long term, but it shouldn’t necessarily last forever. 

The alliance between the American and Afghan governments was a true one, but unfortunately it could not last in perpetuity. It had to come to an end. 

A country is made by its people. The Afghanistan government could not protect the American people because it had to think about its own people’s safety first. 

And the U.S. had to think about  its own people first too.

While it’s not a solution to the problem, it was the best decision that could’ve been made.

Now that the Taliban has taken over Afghanistan, it is their duty to take care of their people too. It is important that people learn how to grow with the change. And it would be nice if the Taliban would bend its morals and do what is right for its people. 

Providing people with basic human rights like education, food and shelter should be the first initiative they take as the official government.

The conflict must come to an end shortly. The chaos between the Taliban and Afghan troops could lead to another world war. 

Women and children, who are the most vulnerable ones, should be protected and given the opportunity to uplift their social condition. 

Peace should be promoted and riots should end as soon as possible.
