Money and lives wasted for what?

I’m sure the Deep State gained something.

US should have pulled out after Osama was killed.

Now they’re back to square one.

USA really tried for Afghanistan, it's painful to see that their efforts wasn't sustained and replicated by the Afghan forces.

The USA funded and created the people they now called Talibans
They used same group against the USSR and now the group has turned as against the USA

USA helps county that helps themselves. It's obvious that Afghans love the Talibanis. So let them sort themselves.

USA doesn't have the funds to sink in a hole. That $2trn is what the USA government needs to invest on infrastructure in USA

War is bad, no doubt it. I can't imagine the US really lost so many men and money against a terrorist organization like Taliban. I mean the US are miles ahead of them in terms of Finance, Strategy, and Technological equipments. This shows that even if a country like US were to battle with a small country that they're miles ahead of, they're still bound to lose many soldiers. Those who are wishing for world powers like Russia or China and US to go to war should know that that would bring about the end of the world. A disaster
