What did we accomplish in 18 years, that we didn’t accomplish in one year, and could have then left?

Lots of American troops killed for no reason.

I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been to Afghanistan can fully appreciate what a shithole it is. I was naively in support of the war there until I WENT there. Then I realized it would take 100,000 troops there for 100 years to drag it past 1500 AD.

Came home in 2007 wishing for an immediate pull out. Wish we had just bombed them and promised to do it again.....
