We don't add 'contractors' into the military expenditures. That was Bush's favorite trick in Iraq.

I don't know to what "facts" you are referring. I don't pay much attention to any of the mashed potato mouth bullshit you post. I just noticed you and BidenPresident pulling each others' hair and loved it.

Gosh. How do you invade Iraq for no reason? Why invade Afghanistan? Just as irrational.

We went hunting for Bin Laden. Not sure why we chose to stay so long, but for a long time the excuse was proximity to Pakistan. Evidently, they aren't capable of defending their nukes.

It's pretty obvious that another two years of being in Afghanistan happened after that 2019 Brown study came out. More time spent, more people killed and more money wasted. This country can do plenty with the money we won't be sending down that rat hole any longer. I'm okay with paying taxes for infrastructure or programs to benefit the citizens; not so much for foreign wars.

Are you talking about the video? Biden made very clear, coherent comments at that presser.

Apparently you guys thought the Taliban could be trusted to keep their word on the withdrawal agreement. I thought we were done with trusting any Afghan officials after Karzai shafted us. Read what he said just three months ago.

"In May 2021, Karzai spoke with German newspaper Der Spiegel, where he expressed his sympathy with the Taliban, criticized the role of the United States in Afghanistan and praised the role of the European Union, at the same time, saying that the future of Afghanistan relies heavily on neighbor Pakistan.[SUP][142][/SUP] He also considered the Taliban "victims of foreign forces" and said that Afghans were being used to be "each against the other."[SUP][143][/SUP]
