      Uh… I’m pretty sure that’s exclusively an American Christian thing. Other religions, and for that matter non-American Christians, don’t usually do the “we have to accelerate the end of times” thing. It’s one of those weird things Americans cooked up.

        This is/was is a core belief of ISIS as well. They even named their magazine after it.

    Yeah, but the Taliban are at least not so nationalistic that they can recognise the usefulness of the engineering chops of manufacturers like Toyota. Say what you want, 10 years from now those Toyota Tundras in the desert will still be running. It’s a crapshoot with the Ford F-150s.

    The differences are the brand of truck they use, and that the Taliban actually seems to use the truckbed.

      Lots of Christians believe that, come the end times, they will be bodily taken up into heaven. (That’s the reason for embalming, to preserve the body for judgement day.) Since, of course, they’ll take their trucks with 'em, they don’t use the bed now. It’d suck so much to spend eternity with scratched paint.

    I did some research on the Heritage Foundation, which is who is really running the country right now. They’re the people behind Project 2025s. Their president is a member of Otis Dia A radical Catholic group.

    In essence, our country is being run by a radical Catholic group… You’re on point.

      The Toyota Hilux is a guerrilla classic. Mega US trucks have nothing on it.

          Yeah because Isis or Taliban buys them brand new from Hassan the local Toyota dealer? They drive used imports with 200000 Km on the meter. If the Taliban can procure a used imported Toyota so can you.

          They might be right? AFAIK the Ford Ranger is supposed to be quite good, and I never see them. I’m kinda shocked when I spot one, like it’s an exotic car.

          And it’s bigger/more expensive than the Hilux.

        Meanwhile the USA possibly spent almost a bil on training camps in Pakistan, and who knows how much on the Pakistani ISI.
