Excellent thread. Disagree that corruption at the top is the cause rather than being another effect. The cause is that USG is run by a leftist egregore that has no goals other than "more power" and that Clausewitz was right - "war is the continuation of policy by other means"https://twitter.com/jlippincott_/status/1444806291713581058 …

Say what you will about Anne's proposal but at least it had a specific goal In Afghanistan, what would a "success" of "women's rights" look like? There is no such state ... because even if it reached the state of the US - that's still not a place where "sexism is a real problem"

So what else do you expect the top generals to do? Might as well cash out and try to keep the guys under your nominal command (not as if you could give them orders to actually do anything) safe (if you're inclined). The corruption is an effect - not a cause
