We could honestly pacify the region in about five years if we had the resources. Men, money, and machinery to build up the infrastructure and make the locals too fat and happy to do hood rat shit. There's a reason commies in 2020 wouldn't make it in 1917.
Define win? If by win you mean prop up the Afghan government, we can do that forever with little investment.
If you mean eradicate Islamic extremism from the region, it's going to require at least a generation.
My general idea is the US should just build thousands of schools there and provide security for the schools, providing a safe environment to create the future leaders of the country, and then let them take it from there.
Super smug upperish middle class Neo liberals and Neo conservatives don’t go to war, they go to college, to one day post snarky remarks on Social media, about how never ending wars are acksually necessary. Both serve a pivotal role in the military industrial complex.
Yeah, bombs these days are fucking lazer guided and cost a fortune, so someone smart enough needs to build a proper loss cost precision guidance system, before the US goes broke from dropping so many of them.
And that won't happen until and unless "It's such a shame that we have to use overwhelming firepower on a bunch of ill-educated indoctrinated and poor desert dwellers, but the security of the global hegemony leaves us no other choice" becomes a valid and celebrated position.
Yeah, and bombs these days are fucking lazer guided and cost a fortune, so someone smart enough needs to build a proper low cost precision guidance system, before the US goes broke from dropping so many of them.
And that won't happen until and unless "It's such a shame that we have to use overwhelming firepower on a bunch of ill-educated indoctrinated and poor desert dwellers, but the security of the global hegemony leaves us no other choice" becomes a valid and celebrated position.
So what's your family background? Are you from a filthy rich family that actually stands to gain from this debacle? I doubt that, you're probably just some smug upper-middle class fuckwad who thinks he is hip and cool using shitty early 2000s boomer arguments to justify endless war. Retard.
Germany, Japan, and South Korea would probably disagree. I imagine you will take the subhuman route in your response though so idfk why I even made this comment.
It probably does. It doesn't mean they are lesser as people. There are a multitude of geopolitical reasons why they are in the situation they are in, some of which are significantly out of their control. The cultural disparity between an Afghan and a US soldier is pretty intense to just in terms of quality of life, again, neither of their faults, just the way it is. Japan, SK, and Germany were pretty close to the US in terms of development. I kind of agree with Pizzashill that it would take a generation, building schools, ensuring attendance to said schools, and providing security for those schools.
Depends on why you're going to war. Honestly, if I was in command of muttistan I'd have just ordered a carpet bombing till Laden was handed over. Burgers keep LARPing about how anyone invading their country will find a patriot behind every blade of grass but forget other countries can be the same way.
No. Muhammed didnt. And he united the arabs which never happened before. Crackers seethe and cope that the start of our religion was through glorious conquest.
We are doing a lot of that. I worked for the Institute for International Education, 50% of foreign ambassadors to the US went through one of their programs and 33% of heads of state of ALL NATIONS on earth went through IIE programs. Their leaders drink American jizz, but youre right we should work on the goat fuckers herders as well because thats where the bombs come from.
It's a good call, if we're going to be withdrawing from Afghanistan than it needs to be done in a way that doesn't fuck it up even more like we did in Iraq. Daddy has been trying to make this is first foreign policy victory and I'd rather not have the Middle East get even more unstable so that Daddy can be in the white house until stage 3 dementia kicks in

The ANA are supposed to be in charge of things, so in other words the Taliban are in a better position than they were in 2014.

More like "randomly pulling out of a war you started isn't good policy in the long run."
It's about the US establishment trying to do damage control because Trump has destroyed the US on the international stage.

How many more years do you think it'll take for us to win?

Burgers aren't hanging out in Afghanistan so much for winning as to avoid the concurrence like China or Russia to settle in their inluence instead.

2 Pepperglue 2020-07-02
Not gonna happen if they keep getting Taliban-affiliated politicians.
Plus, building school isn't military's job. We've spent almost twenty years in getting them back to shape, and with limited to no success.
We should just admit we suck at nation building, cut our losses, and fuck off and never try this shit again.

Here's how building schools that don't teach theology would go over in rural Afghanistan
Fucking lmao, Pashtuns shoot polio vaccine workers in Pakistan and you think you'll be able to run schools normally in Afghanistan?
1 MinerHornet 2020-07-02
It would take commitment and effort but as Machiavelli said don't go to war in a place you don't intend to stay.
