Whatever is happening they wanted to happen. They have the intel, they knew Taliban were using Facebook/Whatsapp to tell everyone they'd be in control after the Americans left. The idea that "they had no idea" is utter bullshit -- feigning ignorance is just a ploy.
What their purpose might be I have no idea, but I know they wanted it this way -- like Clausewitz said, within chaos lies chance.
If I had to guess they're doing the same thing they did in Lybia: using the chaos to move weapons.
