The Republican Senator, Lindsey Graham recently made an ominous prediction, stating that the United States will be re-deploying troops to Afghanistan.

He said the US will go back, 'like we went back into Iraq and Syria', because the Taliban will turn the conflict-ridden country into a 'safe haven' for radical Islamists.

'They're going to give safe haven to Al Qaeda, who has ambitions to drive us out of the Mideast writ large and attack us because of our way of life. We will be going back into Afghanistan like we went back into Iraq and Syria.'

Graham's remarks came less than a week after the US completed its military evacuation from the country and ended its 20-year engagement in America's longest war, DailyMail also reported.

The South Carolina senator noted that Afghanistan will soon be "a cauldron for radical Islamic behaviour."

He expressed doubt that the Taliban would remain in control of Afghanistan because they were, in his words, "hated by the Afghan people."

Graham reportedly predicted that the country and the government the Taliban were trying to build would soon collapse.
