    So the Bush-era humanitarian pretext for extending that intervention was bunk all along? Go figurehttps://twitter.com/AndrewCMcCarthy/status/1076847224653578240 …

    FWIW: I don’t give a shit about helping the people of Afghanistan. And never have — that’s where this went off the rails. This is about defeating our enemies. If we don’t have the will to do that, fine. But that is called *defeat*, not ending our ‘help’ mission. https://twitter.com/amsteelpres/status/1076845642478206976 …

        Wasn’t it all about the Taliban playing soccer with human heads and little girls not being allowed to go to school? Liberals like Ocasio Cortez demand changes here so women can be covered up in Congress, but US soldiers need to die to keep them from wearing burqas in Afghanistan?

        It was always about poppy production as well. From the year the Taliban cut poppy production in 2001, which directly affected the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry for opioids, our occupation of Afghanistan has been largely about poppies and stabilizing production.pic.twitter.com/XcMhtFyGf3

        The problem was even 17 years ago it wasn’t about defeating our enemies. The American people had the stomach to wage all out war then, but civilian and military leadership never did.

        Defeat all the enemies you like...US foreign policy will just make more. The only way to defeat the idea of 'terrorism' is with a better idea. I have never heard anyone articulate what that 'better idea' is. Who knew oppression, exploitation and suffering would be so unpopular!

        Some fights can't be won. Invaders are 0-fer against the Afghanis since Alexander. The fight against ISIS in Syria is poised to become similar to the fight against the 'defeated' Taliban - a endless round of guerilla conflicts against an embedded insurgency. Time to get out.
