That guy is a right wing nutjob, so I wouldnt be surprised if his 'source' was from Facebook.
Plausible, it makes sense for white supremacist apartheid state like the United States to pin their failings on a coloured person as a fall-guy, the same way the LAPD will throw an asian police officer to the wolves to show how committed they are to combating anti blackness.
Not sure whether this was posted or how authentic the video is (unidentified and unnamed), but it's a sad feeling
Tears of an Afghan girl facing a grim future under Taliban rule goes viral as UN Secretary-General warns of women’s rights being ‘ripped away’ from them

- An emotional video of a tearful Afghan girl has gone viral on Twitter.
- The girl faces an uncertain, and likely grim, future as the Taliban gains control of large parts of Afghanistan.
- UN Secretary-General has warned that the “hard-won rights” of Afghan women are being “ripped away” from them.
As large swathes of Afghanistan fall to the Taliban at an alarming speed, a video showing a “hopeless Afghan girl” crying about her grim future has gone viral on Twitter.
“We don’t count because we were born in Afghanistan,” the unidentified girl says through tears in the 45-second clip.
“No one cares about us,” the girl continues. “We’ll die slowly in history,” she adds.
The emotive video, which now has over 440,000 views, was first shared by human rights activist Masih Alinejad. “My heart breaks for women of Afghanistan,” she wrote in a post accompanying the clip. “The world has failed them.”
Under the previous period of Taliban rule, Afghan women were not allowed to work, study, or be treated by male doctors unless accompanied by a male chaperone. Those who violated the misogynistic laws faced imprisonment, public flogging, and even execution.
Following the Taliban’s ousting from power in 2001, the international community worked to open schools for girls and allow women to return to work.
Now that the Taliban has seized 18 of Afghanistan’s 34 provincial capitals and controls more than two-thirds of the country, Afghan women once again fear for their future.
“I cannot stop thinking and worrying about my friends, my neighbors, my classmates, all the women in Afghanistan,” an unnamed female journalist in Afghanistan told The Guardian.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on Friday that the Taliban is already imposing severe restrictions on women’s human rights in the areas currently under their control.
“It is particularly horrifying and heart-breaking to see reports of the hard-won rights of Afghan girls and women being ripped away from them,” he added.

What you're seeing is the start of the US propaganda campaign against Afghanistan.
The kind of BS warmongering news the Australian people are exposed on almost daily basis in Australia for the propaganda purpose!
The 9News is a major mainstream media channel here, uses Nine as the corporate branding and belongs to the holding company Nine Entertainment Co. Pty Ltd, with assets include the Nine Network (which includes its main TV channel, Channel 9), Nine Radio; major newspaper mastheads such as The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and The Australian Financial Review; digital properties such as nine.com.au, 9Honey, Pedestrian.TV; video-on-demand platform Stan; and a majority investment in Domain Group (or simply Domain), an Australian digital property portal and associated real-estate industry business.
Actually there are not many countries in the world that are not within the striking range of a DF-41 long-range missile, perhaps just a few countries in the South America. The DongFeng-41 is estimated to have an operational range of 12,000 to 15,000 km, which would make it the longest range missile in operation.
Funny that the Australian major media just realizes it by now, the Chinese solid-fueled road-mobile intercontinental ballistic missile DF-41 has been in operation since 2017!
Not going to lie, this video is emotionally more powerful than the airport videos
Maybe to the audience of involuntary celibate western male white knights who are going to be easily swayed by the tears of a woman, but ironically a taliban society would prevent incidents of rape and sexual harassment that woke feminists appear to be so militant against.
Perhaps what she is crying about is what them mgtows are going on about how she won't be able to use her sexuality to get good shit in life or afghan society anymore; nope, it's gonna be get back into that burka and try to teach your husband how to have sex with females for a change.
On a side note, the taliban/afghan society with its apparent disregard for the nuclear family and high regard for brotherhood of arms, are perhaps the closest to a Classical Spartan society.

Think about it, she's got a smartphone and dresses fashionably in a country where the vast majority of people live on subsistence farming and herding.
She's already far more fortunate than 99% of her countrymen.
