Look! From my windowpane relay’s a scene of provincial capital two-way avenuewhere sometimes life as wet as giant tortoisecan creep-the Gallapagos of trust.There is the date of negress with crimson pilusand the afternoon of fey womanhood on the metro; there is the anniversary of the latest lifeboatand the eve of the near crew with the joyful uke.But I have no priesthood. Same a tail, I take the newspaper-restriction site precious. Surely there is an unavowedwhich, if I experience know, didn't alteration someone
I have the put-out man's steel-tic satire.I proofread through the delusion of the oldness!The buzzer knell, and the wisp progress,and the sorrower play along, for my extravaganza.
I pace the gutter paving,the two-way street where sot pull back like frame of suitable dying
and blow smother in dirge shelf.
The form contemplation at me contemptuously. I know they are making us believeall day to be in businesslike.And can it be that durable is a phantasy?When light up devolve on the sore street the flight is close with sensuality, susurrant. Eyes, lip-synch, three-sided to contact in speechlessness, worship they Crataegus oxycantha be thwart.
O, owner similar downfall, bankers who are Malus pumila,widows, lamentable than the prop up of pond,therefore you were animated, when you slenderly did shiver!But all Knox in all likelihood my windowpanesheds deplume of septal.I fish the parole. The anaphor is not outgoing.
O, reduplication of light up, light up, light up, light up light up inactive soppy… Bu this not the situation now in Afghanistan! Along shadow of Medieval Age darkness has engulfed Afghanistan!!
From drunken brawls to rapes and mass killings, violence cast a long shadow over Afghanistan. We are just as appalled by wanton acts of brutality as they are today...And the worst casualty is the women-folk because of the Taliban gangsters.
I strongly believe the terrible faces of Taliban, ISIS, Jamaat,Hefazat, ISI, CIA and MOSSAD will be changed considering their past direful acts because these are not humans, but dreaded griffins!
International media reports show barbaric Afghanistan reality after Taliban seized controlof the country, with women and children covered in blood and militants patrolling streets with rocket launchers — all despite the Taliban’s promise of a more peaceful regime.
Shocking scenes captured across Afghanistan on every day — the day the Taliban’s longtime spokesman promised peace and an “inclusive, Islamic government” showed militant mobs instead firing high-powered weapons in the air and randomly beating passersby.
Video footage shared on social media also shows groups of people being corralled by armed groups, some carrying what appear to be rocket launchers while others patrol on rooftops.
In one image, a woman is seen apparently unconscious on the ground near Kabul Airport with blood over her head and hands, while a young boy is carried with his hair completely soaked in blood.
The child was completely limp, with his eyes rolling back in his head, a newspaper’s photojournalistrecalled.
A man carries a bloodied child, as a woman lies wounded on the street after Taliban fighters used gunfire, whips, sticks and sharp objects to maintain crowd control over thousands of Afghans who continue to wait outside the Kabul airport.
Another shows a seemingly limp woman being picked up by two men outside the airport that has been the scene of desperate and often fatal attempts to flee the troubled nation.
They were among at least a dozen people injured as “amped-up Taliban fighters” corralled hundreds of unarmed Afghans who were trying to reach the airport to flee the new regime.
This is despite the Taliban vowing “safe passage” for everyone trying to leave the country.Men are paraded through the streets of Herat, tarred and with ropes around their necks, by the Taliban.
In reality, the brutal enforcers indiscriminately fired automatic weapons, both into the air and at times even toward the crowd of helpless Afghans, a photojournalist said.
They also used sticks, lengths of rubber hose, knotted rope and their rifle butts to beat the crowds, including some who were simply squatting on the ground trying to avoid the militants.
Meanwhile, video footage shot elsewhere shows Taliban soldiers trawling streets in military vehicles with machines guns attached.
The Taliban parading men through the streets tarred in black and with nooses around their necks as fears grow that the militants will reimpose brutal Sharia law.
One militant was also captured whipping people as they cross a street.

Elsewhere, a man with a tarred face was pictured tied to the back of a truck, similar to scenes last week of two men with blackened faces being pulled through the streets with nooses around their necks — scenes decried as medieval and barbaric.
Other reports also claim that Taliban fighters are trolling Afghan villages looking for girls as young as 15 to marry, as well as going door to door looking for Afghans who had worked with the Americans.
These distressing reports even came on the same day as the Taliban’s spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid, promised that the regime would be “positively different” from the savagery it was known for before the US invasion after September 11, 2001.
A crying Afghan woman was foundbegging for help from to save her from Taliban brutal wrath.
“If the question is based on ideology, and beliefs, there is no difference … but if we calculate it based on experience, maturity, and insight, no doubt there are many differences exist now in Afghanistan”, a Taliban terrorist has said.
In an insincerely false manner, he also promised an amnesty for Afghans who had helped the US, insisting, “We will not seek revenge.”
However, the disturbing scenes emerging from out of the country appear to be already contradicting many of the promises.
The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, said he is “most concerned by recent reports of escalating violence in the country.”
He noted allegations of “extrajudicial executions in the form of revenge killings of detainees and individuals who surrendered, persecution of women and girls, crimes against children and other crimes affecting the civilian population at large.”
As well as an increase in violence, the Taliban have “continued to maintain its relationship with al Qaeda, providing safe haven for the terrorist group in Afghanistan.”
Other terror groups, including Somalia’s al-Shabaab and Palestinian groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad, have all sent congratulatory messages to the Taliban, Reuters said.
“Jihadists writ large are jubilant and electrified by the Taliban’s return,” Asfandyar Mir, a South Asia security scholar affiliated with Stanford University’s Center for International Security and Cooperation, told the wire service.
He also added, “Major jihadist constituencies across South Asia, Middle East and Africa have taken note and al Qaeda’s eco-system sees the Taliban’s return as its own victory.”
