Taliban fighters complain that they “have to be in the office from 8am to 4am”, their daily commute and how boring life has been since they took over Afghanistan and became civil servants, with many admitting “I miss jihad. ” “.

It has been less than 18 months since jubilant Taliban fighters returned to power and overran the Afghan capital as Joe Biden withdrew his troops in a retreat that shocked the world.

But the excitement of taking control of the war-torn country appears to have waned for the groaning militants – many now miss the battlefield and are bored with the 9-5 grind of leading the impoverished nation.

After decades of war, the bloodthirsty fighters have expressed their disdain for the office routine, reminding them of the Taliban’s past and their life, which they say is “free of constraints”.

In a study that spoke to bloodthirsty Taliban members who traded a life of war and misery in the mountains for desk jobs, the Afghanistan Analysts Network found that they did not adapt to the typical civilian lifestyle of office work and transportation.

After realizing how everyday life works, former soldier Abdul Nafi claimed to miss the war as he complained that he spends his life on Twitter instead of roaming the country causing chaos and bloodshed. The 25-year-old former fighter said: “I sometimes miss the jihadi life because of all the good things it had.

“I have little to do in our ministry. That’s why I spend most of my time on Twitter.

“We are connected to fast WiFi. Many mujahideen, myself included, are addicted to the internet, especially Twitter.”

He added: “What I don’t like about Kabul is the traffic and what I fear are the thieves. I keep my gun with me at all times after two of our comrades were robbed.’

Despite the sadistic militants imposing draconian rules banning women from education and seeing people stoned, beaten and amputated in public, the isolated militants seem bored with civilization.

It seems that Taliban commander Omar Mansurhard is not ruining the lives of innocent people every day as heartless members are now forced to work for wages instead of roaming the country to find their next victim.

The 32-year-old said: “We had great freedom about where we went, where we stayed and whether we participated in the war.

“Nowadays you have to be in the office before 08:00 and stay in until 16:00.

“If you don’t go, you are considered absent, and [the wage for] this day will be removed from your salary.’

Born in North Waziristan and raised in the remote village of Yahya Kheyl, about 240 kilometers southwest of Kabul, Mr. Mansur became a middle-class civil servant after giving up his life as a soldier.

After decades of war, fighters have expressed their disdain for life in office, recalling the Taliban’s past and their life, which they say is “free of constraints” (stock photo).

Because of the high rent, he cannot afford to bring his wife and five children to the capital.

The former commander said: “What I don’t like about Kabul are the ever-increasing traffic jams.

“It was tolerable last year, but has become busier in recent months.”

Mr. Mansur was not the only killing machine to lament the boring life of traffic, and Twitter lamented how ex-sniper Huzaifa remembers the liberating life of war and how bored he is doing the same job every day.

The 24-year-old said: “The Taliban used to be free of restrictions, but now we sit in one place, behind a desk and a computer, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“Life has become so tiring; You do the same things every day.

Like many Taliban “soldiers”, Huzaifa grew up in a rural village and had never visited the capital before.
