      Hmm Was the war in Afghanistan a mistake? Did you support it at the time?

      It was unexpected to me how few people polled in original post said Afghanistan was not a mistake Fascinating Do we just not talk about that because Iraq was so much larger a production

          iraq actually went better than afghanistan, it is very frustrating how poorly understood this is

          (part of this is that by the end in Iraq we were doing something completely different than what we set out to do)

          I figure there was a decent case for a punitive expedition, we just had no reason to go nation-building afterward if we'd been out and done in a year, I would probably not have any quibble even in hindsight

          Agreed, and that was my vote, too. There was a reason to show up and make it clear that harboring terrorists carries a heavy cost. Everything that happened after that was a combination of bad ideas, bad execution, and resources being diverted to Iraq.

          Striking against the Taliban was not a mistake, but numerous mistakes were made in the aftermath and occupation. (In my opinion)

          We had to try. 18 years is a bit long to figure out that you failed. And in many ways... there was no second 9/11. San Bernardino, etc, etc is bad, but it does not shut down the country for a week. 10, not 3,000.

          The second 9/11 was all the combat deaths the US had over there. If we had stuck to the initial CIA operator / proxy war style we had for about the first month of the Afghanistan war, I think it would have gone a lot better. But that wasn't telegenic enough.
