“Bin Laden is dead, but the Taliban, once nearly vanquished, continue to replenish their forces.”

Of course the Pittsburgh Post Gaz6ette doesn’t care who ran foreign policy between 2009 & 2016. Nope. Can’t do that.

It would be interesting if The One’s foreign policy was regularly criticized by this paper. I highly doubt it. Regardless, who is more anti-interventionist? Trump or Obummer?

I don’t think that matters all that much. Consider Vietnam. Who should be blamed for that terrible tragedy? Nixon? Ford? I would say neither of them. LBJ owns the Vietnam debacle, entirely.

The same goes for Afghanistan (and Iraq as well). It’s all on George W. Bush. Obama just played the bad hand that was dealt him. And that’s also true for Trump today.
