    How can my concern be “untrue?”

    The idea that they “could be” ignores the fact that they’ve been actively governing their territories since (and before, I guess) 2017, and they haven’t started a Taliban-style brutal regime there. I mean I guess it’s not impossible for them to suddenly change their style of governing, but what I’m trying to say that they have a track record we can use to try and predict their future behavior.

      So maybe next time have a conversation rather than just telling somebody “that’s untrue”? No need to be weirdly adversarial…

      That said - you raise some good points. I’m not ignoring anything though. You’re acting like my “concern” is saying “things will go bad” when it’s not.

        That… is fair enough.

        Wasn’t my intention to be adversarial but that is also fair enough.
