Times obituary this morning of my brilliant friend and co-author Matthew Leeming, gone far too soon.

[World News Tonight @ABCWorldNews]

AFGHANISTAN IN CRISIS: It has been nearly a year since the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan and withdrawal of U.S. troops. @IanPannell reports from the country in crisis- more than half of families now going hungry. https://t.co/pM9yJA9Mx8

[Good Morning America @GMA]

Taliban celebrates ‘Victory Day’ in Kabul. @ianpannell reports from the frontlines one year one year since Taliban forces took control of Afghanistan’s capital. https://t.co/kWY5S6eOU4

[Afghan Peace Watch @APWORG]

As a show of resistance against the Taliban, an Afghan girl writes #FreeAfghanistan on a wall in Afghanistan, during the one year anniversary of the collapse.

KABUL: Taliban’s “victory” rally one year on takeover in #Afghanistan: No women to be seen, poverty + bread shortages (95% going hungry), Al Qaeda back in Kabul, teenage girls banned from school…

"We were inept across those twenty years. It was a one year war fought 20 times over. There was a series of inconsistent and fundamentally flawed strategies. Why did Kabul fall? It fell because we defeated ourselves" Fmr US National Security Advisor

A privilege to be back in #Afghanistan to mark a year which turned this country upside down...upended lives...a time of profound change @jackwgarland @AamirPeerzadaa

[The Spectator @spectator]

‘A year after the withdrawal there is an overwhelming sense of loss as the Taliban have entrenched themselves in power.’

Engagement will not necessarily lead to recognition. No country is willing to confer this without the Taliban moving towards a more inclusive government.

How The Silk Roads Began:
The Greek historian Strabo described the region of Afghanistan as a ‘land of a thousand cities’ and Kabul was known to the Chinese as a wealthy and “large kingdom” with “excellent traders”. 1/3
