Afghan Goverment in Peril

                 With the Taliban advancing on the Afghan goverment in all directions the Goverment of Afghanistan could fall in a matter of days.  The U.S. embassy and forces look prepared to withdraw.  All 500 soldiers and the embassy personal including the U.S. ambassador could leave the country.  As the U.S. expedition in Afghanistan has been there since 2001 what have we done in Afghanistan?Are we fighting terror. The Taliban are terrorists but more resemble other things.  Running drugs and weapons they more resemble the Mexican  and South American Cartels.More like drug dealers although the Taliban goverment fell they remained the local underworld in Afghanistan.Who the shiek is in the Arab world sometimes matters. Allthough Bin-Laden and the Taliban after the 2001 Afghan War where forced to retreat to Pakistan what have we done in Afghanistan matters.Although we won and "civilized" Afghanistan giving the Central Asian country a taste of the greater world's pleasures unfortunatly it may not last.  What to come and will Afghanistan fall again.  It might not be 1973 Saigon as the U.S. withdraws. If the Taliban want to keep power maybe they will be forced to conceed a little. If not do we really abandon our ally in the region.

Atari VCS 800 Part 2

         I am still find myself enjoying not putting down my new Atari VCS 800 system.  The system a Ryzen powered downloadbox is discuised as an old Atari.  I started my own account and gave myself a few games from the store. And the Antstream account free for a year.  I found the games they gave me fun and simple. Tailgunner was fun and I had loads of pointless fun shooting down planes keeping my pilot's SBD Dauntless dive bomber safe.Also a second Atari Arcade was added to my original arcade of 30 games I got with the system.  Antstream was instresting I'm still figuring it out but hey free account I have to hand it to them.
