The proxy Afghan Olympic team is flying the tri-coloured red, green and black flag, not the black & white flag in Paris. Just like the Afghan proxy embassies scattered around the world, most Afghans from the 'democracy-project-generation' don't live in Afghanistan anymore. So while this inclusion in the Olympics is progress for the Afghan diaspora, it's certainly not the Taliban opening up. The Taliban were banned from the Sydney Olympics in 2000 and now again in Paris 2024.

THE WATCH OR THE TIME | Documentary Australia How the West failed Afghanistan through the eyes of those who lived it.

TRAILER 🎥 RELEASED🚨The Watch or the Time is an uncomfortably honest look behind the lives of seven ‘Kabulians’ and their lived experience from the longest war zone in modern history. Drawing on over 100 hours of footage filmed over seven years at the height of the Afghanistan war, this film tells the stories of foreigners grappling with what they’ve left behind, Afghans struggling to make sense of the dramatic shift in their fates, whilst others celebrate the Taliban’s win. As America and its allies try to wash their hands of responsibility in Afghanistan, the film puts it front and centre again. The Watch or the Time presents the perspectives and ultimately asks, was it all worth it? Support this project by visiting LINK IN BIO. #afghanistan #costofwar #doco
