        @BBCBreaking How can this be? Politicians tell us #Afghanistan objectives achieved. War won & poppy industry destroyed. #FantasyLand

        @terryllloyd The objective is to block the Taliban from coming back to power. Afghans will be trained to stop them. A just cause, imo.

        @RATZ92 Agreed. A very laudable objective. My concern is, as history shows, central gov't has little hope of long-term success #HeresHoping

        @terryllloyd Actually in Afghanistan before the Soviet invasion, the govt was strong for many decades.
