Yes, those militants are right, this is Afghan land and they should manage it themselves. What are you doing in America? In the past N years, the situation there is still so chaotic, the people's life is still not good, and bin Laden can't even find a shadow; on the other hand, the dead American soldiers have brought tragedy to many families, and more limbs or Mentally traumatized soldiers, and the damaged families behind them are countless.

Either kill your partner or you are killed, if you were given this choice, how would you choose? To be honest, there are only a handful of people who are willing to sacrifice themselves. They have their own wife and children at home waiting for you to go back. Living is the only way out, even if it is the life of a companion. No matter what choice you choose at this time, it is difficult to evaluate right or wrong. Even if you survive, the scene of killing your companions with your own hands is enough to become a nightmare for your life, and you cannot really escape the condemnation of your own conscience.

    The elder brother was tortured by the Taliban in Afghanistan, and the younger brother captured the elder sister-in-law and her daughter at home. That's the benefit of having brothers.
