Taliban’s one-eyed Mullah could be handed 150 NUKES | World | News

John Bolton has warned that the Taliban could get their hands on nuclear weapons if the Islamists take control of Pakistan. Mr Trump made a peace deal with the Taliban that promised a US withdrawal if the Taliban did not harbour terrorists or attack US forces or allies. Speaking with the US station WABC 770 on Sunday, Mr Bolton said: “The Taliban in control of Afghanistan threatens the possibility of terrorists taking control of Pakistan.

“That means maybe 150 nuclear weapons in the hands of terrorists.”

One-eyed Mullah Nooruddin Turabi is among the Taliban’s top brass, who could be set to cash in on such a haul.

He has now become the official in charge of Afghanistan’s prison system.

He issued a grim warning, stating that brutal executions and amputations will return to Afghanistan under the militants’ rule.

Speaking to Associated Press he said: “Everyone criticised us for the punishments in the stadium, but we have never said anything about their laws and their punishments.

“No one will tell us what our laws should be.

“We will follow Islam and we will make our laws on the Quran.”

The Biden administration completed a catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan on August 30.

Mr Bolton served under President Donald Trump between April 2018 and September 2019.

Since Mr Biden’s withdrawal of US troops, he warned that the US President could have “lost his grip on his own administration’s foreign policy”.

However, the US President has laid the blame for the chaos in Afghanistan on his predecessor Donald Trump.

After the US departure, the Taliban paraded dozens of US-made armoured vehicles and weaponry through Afghan cities.

In the southern city of Kandahar, a Taliban heartland, the militant group performed a fly-past with a Black Hawk helicopter.

The US-made helicopter flew a Taliban flag.

On the ground, in Kandahar, a long line of green Humvees and armoured fighting vehicles drove in single file along a road.

The former US vehicles now flew the white and black Taliban flag.

Footage posted on social media showed a helicopter flying overhead trailing the Taliban’s standard behind it as fighters waved from below.
