We should have never gone into Afghanistan in the first place. We should have paid the Russians as mercenaries with a total hands off treatment for them to get done, the job we needed to have them do.

They would have cleaned it up easily without the logistical mess. And if they were to stay....all the better.

Huh? Do you remember the 1970s?

Just in case you don't, the Russians WERE there, and they LOST.
