      The US has already killed a nearly a quarter-million Afghans and made 5.9 million refugees. I think they've done enough damage to Afghanistan already.

          Why are you rolling your eyes at the mention of the deaths of 250.000 people and the displacement of almost 6 million?

          They also killed Tarek Kolache, Khosrow Sofia and Lower Babur. Those aren't Afghans, those are Afghan towns. That they killed by...wiping them off the face of the earth.

          And the USSR killed far more than that, and that didn't work either.

          How many American cities would be gone if we applied the same logic to our actions instead?

          It's fascinating that you attribute the Taliban's death and refugee counts to Americans. Absolutely fascinating.
