A few days before the Taliban took over Afghanistan President Trump predicted that the Taliban would raise their flag over the U.S Embassy and now it looks like his prediction was almost spot on.

Picture are floating around Twitter that shows the Taliban’s flag painted directly in front of the U.S Embassy in Kabul.

The Taliban flag is completely white with an Islamic Oath written on it that says “there is no god but God and Muhammad is God’s messenger”.

It appears the Taliban is continuing to flex their muscles and mock America every chance they get.

It was reported that U.S. Embassy in Kabul cost over 800 million tax dollars and now it is in the hands of the Taliban.

The Daily Mail didn’t stay silent and reported these details:

A Taliban flag was painted on the walls outside the former US embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, new photos show.

The flag appeared to have been painted in the past few days, and was shared by photojournalist Jake Simkin on Monday.

The embassy was abandoned by US diplomats on August 15 as the city fell to the militant group amid America’s chaotic withdrawal from the country.

Embassy operations have since been moved to Doha, the capital of Qatar, and are focused chiefly on processing immigrant visas for refugees.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on August 30, after the last US troops had left the country, that he anticipated the embassy would remain closed for the foreseeable future.

Fox News added to the story too:

Fox News on Monday obtained an image showing the Taliban’s white flag painted outside the former U.S. embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan.

The flag was painted in the last few days, while the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s coat of arms is seen on the righthand side of the image.

The U.S. embassy in the Afghan capital closed on Aug. 15 following reports that officials there were destroying sensitive documents and equipment prior to the Taliban’s takeover of Kabul.

During that time, Fox News also obtained an image of the U.S. embassy flag being flown out of the Afghan capital.

Now that the United States has withdrawn their diplomatic presence in Afghanistan; China, Russia and Iran have cozied up to the Taliban in order to seek the resources that the country of Afghanistan sits on.
