The bloded summed it up..... Afghanistan may have ended differently if Russia or china was the one fighting the war.
Soviet was defeated after 10years in the 80s. Afghanistan is empire graveyard.

Afghanistan has not known peace for hundreds of years.

The only time they had semblance of peace was during taliban era coz they subdued other warlords around the country.

Kind of invalidates your position that the US has never won a war since Vietnam.

Also, the US drove Iraq out of Kuwait in 1991...and also beat a (depleted) Iraq in 2003.
Am aware of America's wins.....the title was largely to troll.

America has realized getting into unnecessary war is only giving the country bad names.

China really changed the mindsets of the top world countries about involving in war.. Apart from China providing you with intelligent, they can never send their troops to go fight unnecessary fight in another country
China sent hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Korean War

Largely because the nature of warfare has changed.

As someone on Reddit put it.

1.World War 2 was a different war. It was 2 armies facing each other, with well defined fronts and lines, and with battles largely fought away from civillians.

2.Afghan war....a group of irregulars who don't observe rules of engagement, shoot from anywhere, and run to hide, and don't fight to defeat you, but to wear you out.

You have two options in this kind of war

1.Stay there for decades, and ruthlessly kill as many people as possible for every small attack on your troops. Exile large numbers of people, keep thousands in jail, forcibly educate and even in some cases convert people there to your religion and way of thinking, and only leave the country when you have finished. That's how the Romans ran Palestine from 66bc to 135 CE. And after Bar Kochba...the area was peaceful for centuries.

Unfortunately that means severe human rights abuse

2.Or you train up a group of people to continue the fight after you have gone. Good,.,,but the key problem is that many of these macs don't want to fight for the occupier, they just want to do it for the paycheck. Once that stops comming...they had over and go home.

The US lost because they have forgotten that war is not supposed to be humane.

Both Haftar and Osama bin Ladin are rogues trained by FBI
Bin Ladin orchestrated terrorist attacks that killed thousands of Americans. Wether he was a rogue agent or not does invalidate America’s justification for going after him.

Major security threats in the world today are caused by America.

America trained to oust and disintegrate the Soviet Union. They equipped them with sophisticated weapons and the Taliban successfully ousted the Soviet Union in Afghanistan.

America planned with terrorists to oust Saddam Hussein in Iraq because the latter was a critic of American ideology.

American trained and equipped Osama bin Laden to fight "American enemies".

Libya was once a peaceful and blossoming country before America entered the country to topple Gaddafi's regime. The African countries are facing security challenges due to arms and ammunition in circulation during the Libya revolution.
The citizens of Afghanistan detest the president's alliance with America because many ideologies alien to Islam have been introduced such as Clubs, relaxation joints where Alcohol is served, and many others. Many citizens are sympathetic to the Taliban because of these and wholeheartedly supported the Taliban to take power from a Puppet of America called President

Tell us why Bokoharam hasn't been defeated in Nigeria for 20 years that's what concerns you.

America distracted by wars in Afghanistan and Iraq became overtaken by China as the Number1 world power. They thought once they eliminate Saddam Hussein and Mulla Omar, their position would be solidified, but hell no, they were wrong.
They created bigger problem(isis) by eliminating saddam hussein, saddam knew how to deal with his people, he knew how to tame them but usa brought their human right nonsense and the result is what we see in middle east today

Some of you guys have little information about foreign affairs..

Let me tell you the story about Libya crises..

Ghadafi was fed up with Usa interference in some Africa countries, he refused almost all the policy imposed by Usa to Libya which got Usa confused cos he was inspiring other African countries to do the same.

Ghadafi sent Haftar to a proxy war outside Libya, which Haftar was captured by American troops.. Haftar was in prison for so many years until he was ready to negotiate for his release. Haftar gave all the necessary info to get to Ghadafi as he used to be his right hand man but abandoned when arrested.

America entered Libya, kill Ghadafi, install their puppet as the leader of Libya.. Was it not same Haftar that went after the installed government in Libya?

The summary is, America are only reaping from their evil doing in the past.

Both Haftar and Osama bin Ladin are rogues trained by FBI

Hush we know your sympathy lies with Al Qaeda, Taliban and all Islamic terrorists world wide so your trash comments are not considered useful.

Fact is America didn't cause the Criss in Libya , at the point they entered they people were already upset. Did America cause the young man in Egypt to set himself on fire which led to the Abra spring rising that toppled governments in Islamic countries across.the world ?

The thing about people like you who are religious extremists is you don't see the truth. You peddle falsehood and lack integrity

Like I said you are so ignorant it's sad. You have no knowledge other than bring down America syndrome which is synonymous with most Muslim extremists. Sameway you were running around this forum supporting Pantami saying were is the proof. You are a known Islamic terrorist sympathiser on this forum. So I am not surprised the only argument you can bring up is America trained them.

Rubbish

NK is only a threat so long as the Chinese continue to back them....and the US does not want to fight a war with China who it has a lot of trade and investment relationships with.

Otherwise if it was a one on one war, the US would win. NK is not as advanced militarily as you think they are. The only way they can chase off the US is via irregular warfare.

Then there is the fact that South Korea does not want to pay for the rebuilding of NK up to South Korea's level. Yes, the Germany's reunified , but West spent over a trillion dollars over the next ten years to get the East up to its level, money many Wessis resent

Finally, a unified Korea may be a threat to China...because China has large indigenous korean populaiton in the North East, who may want to reunify with their brethren
You have summed it up perfectly

Well said

Wrong sir!
America fears the madness of north Korea's dictator. Unlike US that wants to protect its citizens in the event of nuclear war, Kim would sacrifice his entire population just to destroy america. So really, Its the other way round. America doesn't want to engage china for fear of north Korea, while north Korea benefits from china's economic intervention.
You are talking rubbish. China is more afraid of a unified Korea than USA. How can the US fear a unified Korea when the entire southern Korea who is double the population of North worship the USA? Are you confused?

China would never want a unified Korean republic. Can't you see why they are trying to crush Southern Korea to bring it fully under the control of PRC?

American didn’t go to Afghanistan to fight a war, they went for peace keeping and one of the campaign promises of the Biden administration is to bring their troops back home.

In a real war case scenario, the taliban stands no chance. The USA has dislodge their activities before, killed their active commandos and will do so when the need arise again.

Don't mind them, they caught saddam hussein and executed him publicly but buried osama binladin that bombed 9/11 secretly? Does that even make sense, they gave someone that bombed America citizens secret burial, isn't that funny
