"The Soviets lost Afghanistan. And they had twice the population back then."

And? America has four times the population than the Soviet Union did back then and we lost too, horribly. Please explain how that happened?

The U.S. spent twice as long in Afghanistan than the Soviet Union did, and the Taliban is in control today.

A quick look at the record:
Since WW2, the US is batting 0.00
Mainly because it’s about forever war. Peace don’t pay the bills.
