The withdrawal of US and NATO troops from Bagram airbase marks a reckless end to a two-decade occupation, leaving behind not just military debris but also a glaring neglect of the region's ancient heritage. Bagram, or Begram, is a crossroads of history rich with tales of empires, yet the current narrative is overshadowed by political mismanagement and historical ignorance. Why haven’t we harnessed the potential of Begram’s archaeological treasures instead of treating them as mere footnotes in a failed geopolitical strategy? This is an outright failure to respect and promote a site that could serve as a cultural beacon, not just for Afghanistan but for the entire world. It’s infuriating to watch history being buried under the weight of contemporary blunders!
