Iraq and Afghanistan were a waste of American soldiers and money.
We haven’t accomplished a thing in either place, because we never meant to. Viet Nam, Korea ,Iraq, Afghanistan, limited wars that only killed our forces without accomplishing a win.
There is no good reason for any American to still be in Afghanistan.
I’ve been saying for a while now we should have left Afghanistan after the punitive expedition phase and before the transition to the meals on wheels phase.
Until we are again willing to crush a serious enemy and forcefully reset their society and government, as we did with Germany and Japan, I am very against long term military actions. And am for much more forethought on choosing to engage in any short term ones.
