Please tell me what "foreign policy" is at work in Afghanistan.

There is none.

The U.S. hasn't had a coherent policy in Afghanistan for at least 15 years.

I mentioned fighting for total victory in a previous post. If that means wiping out the warlords along with the Taliban and criminalizing Islam, so be it. Never mind putting the fear of the true God into Iran and Pakistan.

If there is “none”, then there is none applied. I absolutely agree that what has been in practice in Afghanistan is utterly incoherent.
