Probably. Wow, this is laughably bad, though. We didn’t even invade Afghanistan primarily to turn them into a western country. We invaded because 3,000 Americans were murdered, and the regime was providing safe haven for the people who did it.https://twitter.com/realchrisrufo/status/1432538698797649924 …
Yes, and we achieved that in the first few months. Then pivoted to 20 years of "nation-building."

Maybe, but you're way overselling it. No one thought Afghanistan would become an elite college campus. A messy, corrupt, seriously flawed democracy in which girls could go to school (i.e. what was there before withdrawal) was a realistic improvement over jihadistan.

The problem is that you immediately return to the status quo antebellum upon withdrawal—meaning Afghanistan with its unique geography will once again become a safe haven and a staging ground for international Jihadist terrorism.
