Anti-American sentiment in Afghanistan

Anti-American sentiment in Afghanistan has been encouraged by the Quran burning incident and the leaking online of a video of US troops urinating on Taliban fighters. Drone strikes have also led to growing anti-Americanism in and beyond Afghanistan.^[1]

After the Fall of Kabul in 2021, Taliban parade 'mock funerals' coffins draped in UK and US flags for NATO powers, as they celebrate 'independence day'.^[2] Badri 313 Battalion released an image mocking the famed photo of US soldiers raising the American flag on Iwo Jima.^[3]
