Afghanistan: It defeated both Russian and American invasions. They are the greatest war power ever.

[bigrebnc1775]

Afghanistan is clearly no priority, and we've been there wasting money & lives because of Southern bozos

Trump is from where? Obama was from where? Where are your congress critters and Senators from? The South? Who doles out the money? Southern congress critters only? Who agreed to the 1.4 Trillion budget? Southerners only? SMH-

The South has always propped up war mongering, without that we never would've been in Afghanistan.

Not so fast

Failed war in Afghanistan?

What exactly are you talking about?

In 2002, Osama Bin Laden was being housed by the Taliban.

The goal of the invasion was to remove the Taliban for power over Afghanistan, in order to either capture Bin Laden, or at least deny him safe haven, and push him out where we could get him.

This happened. Taliban is not charge of Afghanistan, and we got Osama just a few years later, because he wasn't being protected by the Taliban.

So... I don't what point you think you are making, but it doesn't seem to fit the facts.

The Taliban have never lost power over Afghanistan. The US is leaving, they will be out in force,
fully in charge of the place. So tell me, what was won there? As Osama was in another nation after say

Can you name that nation?

Spoiler: For the Stupid DOPers to know some facts Just click this box

In an October 2004 opinion article in The New York Times, General Tommy Franks, who was the general commander of U.S forces in Afghanistan at the time, wrote,

We don't know to this day whether Mr. bin Laden was at Tora Bora in December 2001. Some intelligence sources said he was; others indicated he was in Pakistan at the time ... Tora Bora was teeming with Taliban and Qaeda operatives ... but Mr. bin Laden was never within our grasp.~Wiki. It seems Osama was in Pakistan from late 2001 on. OOPS!

So any other words, your assumption, and unsupported historical claim, is all you need to declare this a Taliban win.

When Osama went to Pakistan is debatable. The Taliban itself was in Pakistsan too.

Whether he went to Pakistan before or after the Bush invasion is debatable, but regardless we did not know exactly where he was, and it was widely believed that he was under the care of the Taliban.

Further, only cowards use the 20/20 hind sight, to declare wrong actions. It does not matter what we know in retrospect, because..... idiot.... we didn't know that at the time.

The operation was the correct course of action, given the information we had at that time.

That's how life works. You can't operate based on future knowledge that we don't have, because we don't have it. If the positions were reversed, and you are the one being condemned, based on information you didn't have, you would be outraged at the unfairness of that.

But like all cowards, pretty easy sitting behind your computer criticizing people with knowledge they didn't know.
And we don't even know if you are right. Osama might have been there, and might not. But this idea that pathetic snots, who have never had to own the responsibility of a choice in their life, sitting around crying real men who make decisions.... really sad.

This OP can only be written by a huge tool of partisan politics... There was NO CHOICE but to go into Afghanistan after 9/11... Cleaning up the remnants of Al Queda there... Deposing the Taliban for making the bad choice of allowing that group to train and shelter there.

The problem was always that USA sucks at setting goals for victory.. And YOU SUCK at honesty about YOUR solution to the problem.. Don't think you have an alternate scenario that allows you to skate off as a hero without putting Obama into this picture... OR -- a CONSISTENT view of what America's foreign war committments should look like...

You're just chucking shit at latest Admin that is making the hard decisions..

Bush should have agreed OBL be handed over to a third country to be tried. The CIA could still have hunted him down if they wouldn't have hanged him. No one would have objected seriously had some al Qaeda training camps been reduced to rubble. After that horrible crime on 9/11, basically the whole world would have stood behind the U.S. of A., and behind pretty much every intelligent effort at eradicating AQ, and that depraved version of Islam would have suffered a devastating blow.

Instead, because "NO CHOICE", there's 20 years of war, and the end result, except for a six-figure body count in Afghanistan alone (not to mention Iraq), looks desperately as if Afghanistan is about to get what was there before, the Taliban taking over, town by town, province by province, and two decades wasted.

Yeah, "NO CHOICE". Frankly, Flac, I sort of, kind of, understand in a moment of grief and rage imbecilic decisions are being made, namely, what should largely have been a police- and intelligence-driven operation was declared a war, and conducted as a war. Stupid, stupid, and interminably stupid. The effects of that stupidity we get to observe these days in the form of complete failure. Still, the CIA had to hunt down OBL, had to hunt down his henchmen, and the deposed Taliban will take over completely when, at long last, the U.S. slinks out of town.

What I do not, cannot understand is that same pap repeated on here, on this day, that led into the tragedy of Afghanistan, with almost two decades' worth of distance to the original event that entailed it. Is learning something from this utter failure due to nothing so much as imperial arrogance and stupidity really not a option?

BTW, if Trump actually gets the U.S. out of Afghanistan, I will, for once, for the first time, laud him for doing the right thing (albeit probably for all the wrong reasons).

There is no war. There is no chance. Maybe you are fighting a war but America is merely exercising a police action according to the constraints of the international community who value innocent lives over beating Persian dogs at any cost. If it were just a matter of kicking ass, the USA could take Afghanistan in 24 hours. But then, what is there but dirt? You've won dirt.

Probably right, but then, we all know how the military loves to play with its toys and justify its budget, that and the fact that I think maybe half the people working in intelligence/military are there in the first place because they are all latent paranoiacs who feed off the fear that everyone is out to get them yet never seem to be looking at the right people in the right places at the right time, but somehow have time to spy on the 99.9% they don't need to worry about because we are fundamentally incompetent at telling the real bad guys from the rest of us.

 

[there4eyeM]

Afghanistan is a place where life is and always has been painful and short. Add to that the dominant religion assuring the faithful a direct path to heaven if dying a martyr, and the perfect formula for getting men to fight is in place.
American soldiers want to live. They also know they're not where they should be.

yet never seem to be looking at the right people in the right places at the right time, but somehow have time to spy on the 99.9% they don't need to worry about because we are fundamentally incompetent at telling the real bad guys from the rest of us.

A great example of that is the Syria War.. 41 diff factions in that scuffle.. Including Iran and Russia.. Whoever we chose to train there for years was a mistake due to identifying the friendlies..

Afganistan should have been put under unique 24/7/365 surveillance from space.. We have that capability.. Just need a dedicated asset in space.. Would have been cheaper and saved us the human cost of keeping that pile of dirt - terrorist camp free... Can read license plates and tee shirts from 100 miles up.. Would have been a better ending to the incursion that really DID have to happen...
