So when does Trump get the Nobel Peace Prize? Oh, I forgot. It’s only given to America-hating m*slim-promoting liars.

Who cares?

GTFO.

There is a very real reason for Afghanistan being labeled the "Graveyard of Empires"

GWB listened to that idiot Colin Powell who said you break it you own it BS and started this quagmire of trying to build a modern nation in a country and culture willfully stuck in the 7th century. Who’s crazier the Afghanistan goat humpers or the Colin Powell’s which infest the US government and military.

We killed bin laden, we destroyed al-aqaeda, and punished the Taliban, declare victory and go home!

In South Vietnam we were aiding an ally who lost nearly 1.4 million people during the war; the footage of those people scrambling to escape communism in April 1975 indicated what we were fighting for.

I don’t believe that ally exists in Afghanistan; the USSR was there for the same reason, and had the same problem with Afghan troops turning on them. As in South Vietnam, the government the USSR supported lived a few years after their departure, then it fell apart.
