What are the trumpies saying about 30 veterans committing suicide every day

Really? 30 a day .

Bush went into Afghanistan because Enron desperately needed a gas pipeline across Afghanistan to their Dabhol power plant.

It's a vanity to think we can fix Afghanistan.

Thanks for the conspiracy theory. Didn't you also make claims that explosives were used to bring down the towers too?

You should do some homework

I did and the conspiracy theory doesn't hold water.

I did and the conspiracy theory doesn't hold water.

So you believe that completely different asymmetrical damage by two different planes hitting 110 story Towers it's going to cause them to both collapse in the Identical same way symmetrically straight down?

By the way each twin tower had 47....14" ×14"- 2-in thick Steel box columns from the ground up.

You can balance a cinder block on four toothpicks as an example of how strong vertical columns are

 

[the other mike]

No buckling over... no jolts.
No equal opposite reaction from the underlying Towers

Your sources are good... University of Alabama. As many as 44 a day is shocking, but I agree with counting accidental overdose.

Nope. 9/11 was a cascading structural failure. I was surprised the towers didn't collapse sooner.

Bush invaded Afghanistan right after his negotiation with the Taliban over the gas pipeline failed.

By Jason Criss Howk

In August, The National Interest organized a symposium on Afghanistan one year after the U.S. withdrawal and the Taliban takeover of Kabul. We asked a variety of experts the following question: “How should the Biden administration approach Afghanistan and the Taliban government?” The following article is one of their responses:
The recent killing of Al Qaeda leader and 9/11 mastermind Ayman al-Zawahiri in a Taliban-Haqqani safehouse in Kabul should give American leaders and allies of the Afghan people a reason to reassess their current policy. If the clear links between the Taliban-Haqqani leadership and Al Qaeda are not enough, policymakers should quickly scan the reports about the deadly and misogynistic system that has been installed by the terror regime in Kabul. The Taliban are not going to change their thinking based on current diplomatic approaches, as this statement from Minister of Interior Sirajuddin Haqqani at the beginning of August made clear.
~Snip~
Independent research has assessed that Afghanistan is unsafe for anyone that does not subscribe to the extremist ideology of the regime. Every day, Afghans whom the regime defines as their opposition are murdered without trial, often after enduring brutal torture. Women, girls, former members of the Afghan National Security Forces, and religious or ancestral minorities are at extreme risk. Women and girls are simply objects to the terror regime, stolen and sold or gifted into arranged marriages. The majority are now denied education and economic opportunities.


Commentary:
Afghanistan is more or less the same as it was before the United States and its allies got there. Many people have pointed out at the time and since then, as soon as the US left it would go back to being the same. We were already there for 20 years.
Was Joe Biden's orders to slink away from Bagram AFB in the middle of the night the right choice?
One of the few things Obama ever said that was true:
“Never under-estimate Bidens ability to FUBAR things”.

The US could have stayed, and been used by terrorists who wanted to kill some Americans, or it could be a backwards country that doesn't get some Americans killed.
Two choices really. It was never going to be a proper functioning country, Bush made that happen by putting in a puppet government and not dealing with the reality of the situation.

It could have been all sorted out at the beginning 2001 if the US had been interested in that happening. They could have let Abdul Haq carry on with his plan to overcome the Taliban. Many Afghans had already told him give the word and they would move. Afghanistan was ready to get rid of the Taliban. However the US wanted war and the left Abdul Haq who was one of the few people left who still had the respect of all the people, to die.

Obituary: Abdul Haq

The veteran Afghan resistance commander Abdul Haq, who has been executed by the Taliban aged 43, was regarded as one of the few homegrown political figures who could have restored unity to his benighted and wartorn country.

I know that ISIS is a tiny minority in the Arab world.

So you don't remember how quickly they grew into a global terrorist organization? And you believe that could never happen again? Or make new alliances with the Terrorist Taliban that now has been given legitimacy by the bumbling of Biden and the Democrats?

Isis wasn't a global terrorist organization. The Taliban stays in Afghanistan and western Pakistan.

Afghanistan is known as the Graveyard of Empires for a good reason.
Ask the USSR what they think of it.
Oh, can't do that, the entire empire crumbled less than a decade after leaving in shame.
The Mongols & British also played that game & lost.
That backward-ass pile of landlocked rocks & violence was always going to revert back to factory settings

Kipling Warned Us About These Mountain Apes

"When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains
And their women come out to cut up what remains
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
And go to God like a soldier."

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

They don't have to carry out terrorist attacks when they let al Qaeda and ISIS use their country for training, much like they did for 9/11.

Now enjoy your next terrorist attack. I guarantee it won't be in my neighborhood.

Chickenhawk Litter

Sissyboy Bush, who weaseled out of fighting in Vietnam like all Preppy scum, loved his sheltered Cold War lifestyle so much that he tried to bring it back when he got his legacy election. He occupied Afghanistan as an outpost against Russia.

They have no reason to attack Iran.
