What infrastructure did they have?

Limited. We built lots of power plants and diesel generators that Afghanistan didnt even need.

Gotta keep Bechtel and Haliburton happy.

Where? Do you have the names of specific towns?

During the Bush years China built Port Gwadar which seemed obvious as hell to me. China is their neighbor and will be long after we're gone.

I dont understand your question.

Why do you think we are still in Afghanistan?

When the Taliban offered to give us Bin Ladin, we should have taken him and stopped the bombing.

So they counted the money and saw the invoices? Sounds like some really dumb gossip to me.

I find it interesting that leftists no longer dislike war.

I feel like that happened around January 2009.

What happened to BUSH LIED, KIDS DIED?

We spend billions on SECURITY....most of it went to local warlords and corrupt members of the Aghan government. Through many shell accounts and then to their personal accounts.


We also paid bounties for useless information. We would offer $5k for anyone working with the Taliban....and people would just settle old feuds and lie about their enemies.

Afghanistan has beeen an utter fuckshow for 20 years.

WHAT HAVE WE GOTTEN FOR THE WAR?

 

[JustAGuy1]

I dont see that we have gotten anything for the $1 trillion tax
Payers have spent.

Why are we still there, specifically?

What are your thoughts? I definitely have mine and will share them.

Poppy fields.

Billions of US Dollars Wasted in Afghanistan

The United States poured billions into building stuff in Afghanistan, but much of it has been unused or abandoned.

thediplomat.com

The most expensive capital asset in the list was the Tarakhil Power Plant, constructed under the auspices of USAID, at a cost of $335 million. SIGAR found it being used but not as intended and in a deteriorated condition. While its output had improved in the five years between SIGAR’s 2015 reports on the facility and the 2020 follow-up, it remain underutilized — operating at up to 77 percent of capacity during the winter of 2019-2020.

It may be an invitation for a Taliban move into other countries in the region if we are not a threat. More upheaval.

We have significant presence all over the region.

Do you think we should have kept killing children once the Talban offered up Bin Ladin?


Has anyone ever defeated Afghanistan in a war on their turf?

Is our presence in the region enough to keep them at bay?

It's amazing to me why no one ever asks why we are still there wasting all of this money.

In the end it's what Wall Street wants and they get whatever they want.

Just like eisnehower said.....mic. JFK criticized the cia and it got him dead. Unjust, multitrillion dollar wars, military spending billions etc. This is big business for them and the contractors who make all the new darpa toys. They have to test out their new gadgets through endless warfare. Sad, but it is one of the major key elements that end a nation.

Best damn post on this thread.

Trump said he wanted end the wars....then he was a quick mark to be removed from office.

Look at how Tulsi was attacked the moment she was antiwar.

THE WASHIINGTON INSIDERS LOVE WAR!

Trump pissed of the establishment when he told the truth wars are always started so defense contracters can profit.
