Said this in a previous post. Very predictable. Nation building was never gonna work and the taliban proved that they were gonna bide their time no matter how long it took. They were determined on returning to power once we pulled out.Blaming Biden for Afghanistan is like blaming Gerald Ford for Vietnam.
But, this is an opinion thread.....
Had we focused on Afghanistan rather than the distraction in Iraq, things might have come out differently. But, realistically, who among us wouldn't have predicted the exact result we've seen this week as the end of the war?
The speed at which they were able to do it was really a kick in the nuts especially given how much time and resources were expended just to see it end up back to square one.
As a matter of fact I think an argument could be made that the taliban are even more formidable now than they were before this whole debacle even began.
