Yes I did. Did you understand what I was talking about? NoNot having a hard time at all, did you state the following?
Ok let's hear it. This should be good.Yes I did. Did you understand what I was talking about? No
Murica has the watches, the Afghans have the time.How did a group armed with assault rilfes and RPG's defeat the United States military.? The U.S. had tanks, B52's B 1 bombers ,helicopters, and other weapons of war, but were not able to defeat the taliban. How did this happen. Your thoughts.
It’s already been explained. Can’t help you any more than thatOk let's hear it. This should be good.
Whatever the argument is at this point, the Americans there should perhaps have left before we did. This is the main issue.Which one? The current and last two presidents withdrew from Afghanistan. I suppose we could strap a pack on you and send you over there to stop a bullet. or maybe someone you love?
Starting with Vietnam, we are in the business of going to war, but never in the business of winning it.
Today, we are more concerned about raising the rainbow flag at a military facility, and more concerned about "equity" in the military, than actually creating a fighting force.
When we do fight, we are not willing to do what's necessary to force the enemy into an unconditional surrender.
This is why I will NEVER again support sending our military into war OTHER than to repel an attack on our homeland.
Fuck 'em, I'm done!

They didn’t defeat the US military. Our installed senile leader choose to fuck up our withdrawal in order to embarrass the country.How did a group armed with assault rilfes and RPG's defeat the United States military.?

Tanks were not used in Afghanistan because they are not suited for the terrain. Helicopters are susceptible to those RPGs you mentioned. Those bombers have difficulty hitting targets in mountainous terrain.
We effectively lost Vietnam to even worse equipped insurgents.
Politicians would not let our troops fight in either conflict.
No. Sorry but you changed the question.No. Sorry. You are wrong.
What would it have taken to actually win in Afghanistan? John McCain in 2008 had it right. It would take 100 years. And I believe he was right.
Why? It would take generations of education to be able to establish a solid Secular Society and Government. And it would cost ten times per year more than we were willing to spend.
We would have to build infrastructure, technology, schools, industry, and the list goes on and on. We would have to establish representative government in villages where they had been doing it that way for 1,500 years. The way of the tribal chieftain.
We never got started in that. We made a few token changes. Schools for girls. A few clinics without a doctor.
We depend the better part of two decades training the Afghani Army. And when it came down to it. They wouldn’t fight. At some point they would need to stand on their own. If 20 years was too soon. How much longer did they need? See the answer above.
Because they were past of a Religious Sectarian Society the religious leaders held much sway. And the Religious leaders believe they should be the ones in charge to run the nation or villages based upon the religious beliefs.
The military won the battles. But the nation lost the war. Not because politicians refused to let the military fight. But because the nation was not going to build an Afghanistan that could truly stand alone.
It was just too expensive.
The US had no intention of winning the war, Corrupt American politicians just wanted to make the companies that supply the American Military rich so they could get their kickbacks,How did a group armed with assault rilfes and RPG's defeat the United States military.?

The problem is the tentacles cross both lines of the two parties we are forced to vote for. We are heading towards a government envisioned by globalists for centuries. They took their time and patience and slowly took control of most nations financial and economic systems which affects the Political class in which there is infection with in them. So now we have the decline and feminization of the West. And the rise of other nations around the world. A more equlibreum is the goal and the United States must be taken down. At least half our nation is on their side. We all are eligible for government benefits of some type at some time of life. That is important. At this point, the weapons people have are the only stop left to global dominance not including China and Russia.The US had no intention of winning the war, Corrupt American politicians just wanted to make the companies that supply the American Military rich so they could get their kickbacks,
