  • America’s retreat from Afghanistan marks the end of the era of Pax Americana, the “long peace” that has prevailed since World War II. Many analysts can recognize this, but very few understand the real reason why this is happening. The Bible gives clear answers.
  • The Taliban didn’t chase America out of Afghanistan alone. In fact, they were being helped for years by one of America’s greatest enemies: Iran.
  • The Biden White House and a number of media reports say the Taliban today are different from when America went into Afghanistan to attack them 20 years ago. We’ll see why this is wishful thinking—or a flat-out lie.
  • We finish with a word about a crucial biblical prophecy that explains what is going to happen as a result of this loss in American power.
