Knock out ISIS, if the people of Afghanistan want Taliban, it is no longer up to us to stop them. We need a graceful way to pull out.

We started fighting in Afghanistan in 2001. Now 17 years later we capture a raghead capital. Ultimately we are not going to defeat the Islamists with our current strategy.

After this operation we should declare victory and leave.

We will never change them. They are dead enders.

We should pull out, go back and smash them if we have to, then pull out. Repeat only as often as necessary.

We should declare victory, leave, and then nuke it.

No one has ever tamed Afghanistan, though many have tried.
We will not tame Afghanistan no matter how long we are there.
Should never have gone in on the ground.
After 9/11, pound them from the air until nothing moves to teach them not to harbor terrorists.
Repeat as necessary.

Islam is not amenable to civilization.
We should stay out of Islamic countries.

I was not in the Army so I don’t know but is it unusual to have that many Green Berets in one operation? I’ve never heard of a concentration this large of Green Berets.

This is right around the area of Tora Bora, where bin Laden was holed up, just after we invaded Afghanistan - not far from the Khyber pass, South of the Jalabad/Peshawar road near the border with Pakistan.
