Hope this filmmaker will get the possibility to inform his story, as I really feel it will be fairly riveting.
And to not begin a political remark stream however the truth that the US went in there in any respect when Afghanistan has NEVER been “taken” is insane. That they went in on such a lie (That Osama Bin Laden was the one they wanted to seize for 9/11; as a result of gods forbid they threaten their oil-daddy Saudi Arabia) to start with makes it worse.
However yeah:
Alexander of Macedon
The Mongals
The Mughals
The British Empire….Twice
The Soviets
ALL tried to take and maintain the area and all failed ultimately.
So the USA and NATO getting into there in any respect was a mistake. Identical to Vietnam, Simply Like Somalia, Identical to Iraq, Even Korea was a mistake that they solely skated out of on the assistance of many different nations.
So now you will have a neighborhood individuals who received used to non-Taliban rule for what? 13 years…after which all of the sudden the US walks and the Taliban sweeps again in. I can not think about what the native Afghans are going via proper now.
This was inevitable 2 many years in the past, however the US conflict machine refused to see it.
