The DoD will LIE about this with its $500M / year marketing budget
Trash will LIE that he WON where no other President could: disarm NK and beat the Taliban
This peace treaty is really
"$800B / year USA military can't beat a bunch of sand knitters / ragheads in two decades, so USA declares a peace"
Was same story in VN against "kooks in black pajamas and sandals"
Germany and France (cheese eating surrender monkeys / freedom fries ) were absolutely right: "USA, don't go into Afghanistan"
And Pootin, whose Russia had their asses bloodied and defeated in Afghanistan, is LMFAO as USA deteriorates further before the world.
Hardly a surprise. Russia couldn't do it and it wasn't halfway across the world like the US. For them it was like us invading Mexico. We were dumb to ever go in attempting regime consolidation to start with.
I don't consider myself "we" with the Repugs
Dumbass. Obama is the one that declared Afghanistan "the real enemy". His first year in office troop levels went from 30,000 to 100,000.
They’ve been fighting for 2000 years and will probably be fighting 2000 years from now.
our military is like our soccer team
lots of hype but can only beat teams like Granada and Panama
Not really. The real war started in 1979 with the Soviets.
The real objective should have been just to find Bin Laden and dismantle Al Qaeda. Taking out the Taliban was extracurricular.
Hey, Panama is pretty good!
Mujahideen doesn’t equal the Taliban.
Um, there's some overlap.
Some but the Mujahideen were a mixture of different groups and tribes while the Taliban were a specific group of Pashtuans trained by Pakistani Intelligence to help take over the country in the 90s.
Correct, it equals Al-Qaeda.
3 posts above are all correct
No. Weird that it's still unclear after 20 years.
It was a group of Jihadists funded by Bin Laden.
crushingly gross overgeneralization tbh
Mujahideen is literally the Arab term for jihadist
Yours is still a crushingly gross overgeneralization tbh
