Afghanistan is called the graveyard of empires for some reason. Osama bin Ladens idea was to lure the US into a conflict and war inside Afghanistan.
I think the reason why the US left behind alot of modern weapons in Afghanistan is probaly for a war or terrorist attacks against Russia/China from that region.
Recently terrorist attacks on chinese nationals increased in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi journalist and critic of the Saudi government, was murdered on October 2, 2018, inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey. He had gone there to obtain documents for his marriage. His death sparked international outrage, with evidence suggesting that he was killed by a team of Saudi agents sent from Riyadh. Investigations indicated that the operation had been ordered at high levels of the Saudi government, leading to widespread condemnation and strained relations between Saudi Arabia and several countries.
