“Forget it. It ain’t gonna happen. To them this is a religious war. It isn’t about anything but their efforts to spread their sect disguised as a religion throughout the world.”

I’m going to respectfully disagree. I think it goes deeper. Afghans are Muslims, but they aren’t all about spreading Islam. They’re all about not being pushed around by outsiders. We are by no means the first Great Power to be forced to leave Afghanistan. Ask the Soviets or the British.

In my opinion we should have never invaded with the idea of sticking around. Go in, kill whoever needed to be killed and then get out. Invading Afghanistan never ends well for the invader. If we are lucky, they will let us withdraw peacefully. Look up how the 1st Anglo Afghan war ended.

You're talking about the history of failure. With each one within the effort to stop the Islamic nightmare, we illustrate their successes and our failure. "Go in, kill whoever needed to be killed and then get out." We still haven't accomplished that goal and never will. Islam is the official state religion of Afghanistan, with approximately 99.7% of the Afghan population being Muslim. And with the attitude and belief of the religion, you have to destroy the whole snake, not just cut off the head. Plus the Ismaili follow their leaders uncritically. Told to kill. is just another action to be done. So how many do you kill and who? The population of Afghanistan in 2020 was 38.93 million. That means you will have to take out 38.81 million people to guarantee another head not growing on the snake just from that population alone and not someone like Bin Laden coming in like he's done before. He may be dead, but his template remains. And the rest of the world has become someone's cup of چای (tea). And the one thing the US has never learned from this whole thing is they can't be negotiated with, they lie like a rug, and they will kill you while you are at the tables trying to be stupid. And they are a lot more jubilant in doing so than everyone else is in doing it for them. rwood

Thank you for the entry.

“They’re all about not being pushed around by outsiders.”

If that’s the case, then why do they bomb their own people in their country, have wars in other countries, and try to infuse sharia laws into the countries they immigrate to? When they do that, are they not the outsider?

And the elected muslim mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has publicly backed that 20% of the city should be Sharia law zones. Country, too. And he has also stated that 23% of the country think MI5 is responsible for radicalizing Jihad John, who was observed in attendance at the beheadings in 2014/15.

This is how it happens and has in numerous countries.

Please observe Egypt, Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Guinea, Indonesia, Jordan, Kosovo, Libya, Mali, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria,....haven’t got past the “n’s” so I think it proves what is happening.

You can’t take out the ones we need to when they are living in your neighborhood. And they know that. They’ve shielded themselves before.
