America's Shame: The Destruction of Afghanistan

BidenPresident said:
Sadly, many American think all wars are good.

We ruined Afghanistan when we could have been helping them.

The US needs to apologize to Afghanistan and make repairs.

How can one turn a shithole into a shithole?
Apologizing to towel head savages is never an option.

Staying away from the Middle East, on the other, is usually a damned good idea.

You go there, you get it on you.

Afghanistan is a basket case and we can’t fix it and it’s stupid to try. Enough is enough.

We need to fix our own country. Then we’ll worry about saving the world. I suggest we start at the southern border.

Well that may be true, but to our south we have countries that are 2nd world @ best & a huge magnet to their north drawing them here.

Asylum from their poverty & jobs paying better than can be had @ home, underpinned by millions of Americans willing to hire them on the cheap

You sure have the Liberal disease! The disease which causes you to want to make everything fit your screwed up ideal of how things should be.

Some places just are. Some things just are.

And your arrogance is what makes them not only worse, but you make what wasn't a problem into a problem and to make it perfect, you'd make it our problem.

No wonder the world wants to defeat us.

They figure it's the only way to stop people like you.

Yea, whatever...

If we'd fought there like the Mongols or Alexander the Great did we'd have a whole country with no population in it to deport all our illegal aliens to...

I recall some ppl calling to turn the landscape there to glass (nuke it) which would not be easy for a place the size of texas & filled w/ huge mountains & deep valleys..

The Afghans were the first to break the invincibility of the Mongols but did succumb.. They outlasted them & returned, as they did the British pressure, the Russians, Americans & will the Chinese as well IMHO......... (That remnant of Mongols that remained~ Hazaras are second class citizens & hated by those Pashtuns)

No, just done it the old fashioned way... Transport! We empty our prisons and jails and send them there with guns. Tell them they can do whatever the hell they want, just leave the US military alone. The military chimes in doing daily target practice on anyone that pisses them off.
In between you knock down every mud hut in sight, shoot all the livestock and dump them down the local well, burn the crops, and salt the soil.

After all, a "nation," using that term very loosely, that's now populated with people that know what indoor plumbing, air conditioning, and McDonald's are will be far more conducive to a reasonable "foreign" policy than a bunch of people who still wipe with one hand and are stuck in the 12th century...

My comment was not only for you, but for anyone else like you. You who are actually out of control "control freaks" who can't run their own country well, but who believe they are fit to control other countries!

This is for you to think about, as much as you believe that what you do is 'thinking.'

You doubling down on it now?? :laugh:

I/we control nothing, we are not running the country or world.....

What we say changes nothing, it's opinions, nothing more...

Don't take what is said here, or most importantly yourself too seriously, no one else does........

State your opinion, have fun, be entertained, those that don't agree w/ you on some or most are not your enemies, don't forget that...........

Was America’s Longest War Doomed From the Start?
As American troops prepare to leave Afghanistan, it’s clear the conflict was never winnable.
BY FRED KAPLAN
APRIL 16, 2021


Now that our 20-year war in Afghanistan is grinding to an unsatisfying end, it’s time to ask the question: Was it ever winnable? The answer: Probably not, in part because, over the years, “victory” was defined either not at all or in terms implausibly grandiose.
