No. Aliens told Trump to withdraw because they have a secret base there.
We should have never been in Afghanistan.
Thirty days of air strikes after 9/11 would have been enough.
Nobody has ever tamed Afghanistan.
Send Mad cow there. Why lose our American men there? If we can’t get the job done in 17 years that tells me it is nothing but a prop for the Industrialized Military. We lost enough brave men there and I would rather save them for the war against Iran (Thanks Obama for giving them the $$$ to build their nukes and support Terrorism).
So now the left are war mongers? I wonder how this is playing with normal democrats. Sure they hate Trump, but they also hate military intervention in other countries. Trump may be separating them from the far leftest. That would be ironic!
Why does Ms. Maddow keep postponing her trip to Kabul to organize an organization to promote homosexual and transgender rights and open a Planned Parenthood clinic. If its a matter of cash sure people would contribute to a go fund me page if she guarantees she will actually go.
we should have left right behind OBL when we let hi slip into Pakistan.
I’m waiting for the first U.S. airstrikes as our ground troops depart.
(both Syria and Afghanistan)
Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires.
Just look at its history, and see how many foreign empires were forced into eclipse and obscurity because they tarried too long in the wind-blown high desert.
Going back to Alexander the Great, 330 BC. Afghanistan proved impossible to subdue. At best, Alexander had only an uneasy truce with them for a while until his death less than a decade later.
Everybody else that went into Afghanistan ended up busting their horns, and even Genghis Khan steered carefully as he passed through their lands, intent on subjugating all the surrounding provinces, but treading with caution and well-placed emissaries along the way.
Donald Trump can make liberals do anything.
Now he has them demanding that American troops be kept overseas to fight in foreign wars.
Rachael’s girl friend made her say that.
“When you’re lying and bleeding on Afghanistan’s plains/and the women come out to carve up what remains/ roll over to your rifle and blow out your brains/and go to your God a soldier’’.- Kipling.
No doubt, because Russia’s last foray into Afghanistan worked out so well for them and they want back in.
> We should have never been in Afghanistan. Thirty days of air strikes after 9/11 would have been enough.<
Joe Biden was advocating that approach at the time. Looks like Slow Joe might have been right. Because eventually we will see helicopters evacuating the US embassy in Kabul. It’ll be just like Saigon was in 1975.
And when Obama reduced troop levels in Afghanistan was it Russia who ordered Obama to do it?
Why would a russian news agency give a crap what some inconsequential US talking head says about Putin? Are there US news agencies that fret about what russian newscasters say about Trump?
THIS !
Maddow barking her talking points to her minions.
