Not only does war improve the economy but after the war “nation building“ offers great opportunities for corruption.

You're an idiot.

The tariffs will put us into a recession. Putin has used a lethal poison and the EU has put sanctions on putin but tRump says putin is a nice guy. Just about anything and everything tRump has touched or got close to is a failure.

Nothing Trump did while President or has ever said matches the incredible incompetence Joe Biden has shown in his embarrassing withdrawal from Afghanistan. Joe orchestrated a fiasco of Biblical proportions and it is far from over.

This wouldn’t be an issue if Mitt Romney had been elected president. He accurately assessed that Russia was “the greatest geopolitical threat to the U.S.”. Barack Insane Obama - with unlimited access to national security briefings - mocked him.

This is a prime example why you don’t electe an amateur to the White House. Obama couldn’t see the forest for the trees and thought he could “kumbaya” the world into submission. Now Russia is more powerful and more emboldened.

$10,000 Invested in Defense Stocks When Afghanistan War Began Now Worth Almost $100,000

Was the Afghanistan War a failure? Not for the top five defense contractors and their shareholders.

theintercept.com

IF YOU PURCHASED $10,000 of stock evenly divided among America’s top five defense contractors on September 18, 2001 — the day President George W. Bush signed the Authorization for Use of Military Force in response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks — and faithfully reinvested all dividends, it would now be worth $97,295.

This is a far greater return than was available in the overall stock market over the same period. $10,000 invested in an S&P 500 index fund on September 18, 2001, would now be worth $61,613.

Moreover, given that the top five biggest defense contractors — Boeing, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and General Dynamics — are of course part of the S&P 500, the remaining firms had lower returns than the overall S&P returns.

These numbers suggest that it is incorrect to conclude that the Taliban’s immediate takeover of Afghanistan upon the U.S.’s departure means that the Afghanistan War was a failure. On the contrary, from the perspective of some of the most powerful people in the U.S., it may have been an extraordinary success. Notably, the boards of directors of all five defense contractors include retired top-level military officers.

Several commentators address this dynamic in the 2005 documentary “Why We Fight,” about a warning that President Dwight Eisenhower issued about the military-industrial complex. Former CIA contractor and academic Chalmers Johnson states, “I guarantee you, when war becomes that profitable, you’re going to see more of it.” A retired Air Force lieutenant colonel says, “American people who have a son or a daughter that’s going to be deployed … they look at the cost-benefit, and they go, ‘I don’t think that’s good.’ But when politicians who understand contracts, future contracts, when they look at war, they have a different cost-benefit analysis.”

US spending in Afghanistan fueled rampant corruption, reports say - The World from PRX

Corruption played a toxic and central role in hampering the United States' efforts in Afghanistan from day one. Sarah Peck, a lawyer and former diplomat who served as the anti-corruption officer at the US embassy in Kabul from 2009 to 2010, tells The World's Marco Werman what she observed.

We were responsible for Afghan security. We surrendered it. None of your nonsense bullshit propaganda can rewrite that history.

We conducted a 20-year occupation of a foreign country. We're not responsible for their security.

 

[otto105]

Just think about you supporting the former president peace accord with the Taliban and withdrawal by May 1st to wanting to continue the war now.

Dude, we supported the withdrawal of the troops. You maga fuckups now want to stay in country.

Nope. Orderly withdrawal not this shit show. Optics matter.

No, no they don't. Existing the occupation was all that mattered.

Tell that to the families of the 13 dead soldiers. Styles make fights. You’re out of your league, leftist. Most of the country agrees with me as illustrated by Joe’s 43% approval rating and it’s likely lower given the left leaning polling.

Truth over Facts

That is the ignorant thinking that led to 9/11. We’re responsible for OUR security and OUR security is compromised when terrorists have a friendly nation state for recruiting, training, and planning terrorist attacks.

You tried your best, you’re just dead-wrong. Thanks for playing.

The 9/11 terrorists didn't use Afghanistan to launch their attacks.

 

[P@triot]

The 9/11 terrorists didn't use Afghanistan to launch their attacks.

Actually, they did, dumb shit. Al Qaeda's training camps were in Afghanistan. The Taliban granted them "save haven" which allowed them to run their operations (funding, recruiting, training, planning, etc.).

This is simple shit. Since you're uninformed about it, you shouldn't be discussing it.
