“We were in Afghanistan for 20 years”
We lost because we did not learn the lessons of four thousand years of history. Everyone going to Afghanistan to conquer the Afghan people will be defeated. Everyone.
If ever someone wants to conquer Afghanistan they must be willing to kill every last man, woman, and child. All of them. And as brutal as that sounds I mean it because if you’re not willing to do this THEN STAY THE HELL OUT OF THERE!!!
But yeah, in forty years some idiot country will think it’s a good idea to invade Afghanistan again.
It doesn’t really matter the reason, the fact is we left Afghanistan after 20 years, left behind enough equipment to outfit multiple armies and the Taliban are in power.
There is no other way to say it, we lost.
Tell that to Alexander the Great.
