'No compromises' Terrifying footage shows Taliban with brand new US weapons and vehicles

[JustAGuy1]

The Taliban never did anything to us to start with. We took the pressure off those who did when we decided to spin our wheels in Afghanistan and then Iraq as opposed to going after them in Pakistan.

None of this was about what we were told it was about.

Actually, we have a good reason to go after the Taliban, they were sheltering and aiding Bin Laden and Al Qaeda

But once you do that, you finish the damned job.

We didn't.

We haven't finished a "job" since WWII.

 

[Likkmee]

We've turned weapons over to our "enemies" for decades. People are just now upset?

Now all of a sudden YOU arent upset? What changed this time?

Upset because we are leaving? (I hope). I've been calling for us to leave for years but I'm suppose to get upset because we are (if we really do)?

No, you said we have turned our weapons over to enemies for decades. Now all of a sudden you DONT care that we are turning over weapons to enemies?

I answered your question. We have always left equipment behind. The solution is to NOT take it there to start with. I was upset that we took it there to start with.

Except this time. This time you are stunned that people are upset? Why?

Except this time? I'm still upset we were there. This is what we do. How is it that people just now realize this?

So you are ok with letting the Taliban enslave people? Turning women into things; not people? Youre ok with that? You dont think someone should stop it?

20 years and nothing has changed. 50 years and the answer will still be the same. What do you want to do, make it the 51st state?

Change can only be brought about from within.

So your position is, fuck them? Should we take this same approach with black people? Your criminal behavior has been like this for 50 years. Does that mean you are incapable of behaving like normal people, like you are suggesting is the case with Afghanis?

Change can only come from within. We are trying to change from within the discrimination of blacks in this country.

No mention of your communities rampant crime? Yeah, you arent going to change shit until you recognize what the actual problem is.

My community? There is very little crime in my community.

Oh, you moved to a white community?

Does this mean my "lighter da skins da lesser dem sinz" is true ?

That in no way changes the fact that we haven't fought a war to win it since WWII.

 

[JoeB131]

There was nothing the Taliban could have done.

The same people who drove the Soviet Union and now the US military out of their country couldn't hunt down one asshole and his porn stash?

 

[JoeB131]

Did we really "Finish" World War II? We still have troops in Germany and Japan.

We did. WWII was about the Nazi's.

The Taliban fought off two of the biggest military's on the planet? Al Queda wasn't bothering the Taliban so why get in a fight with them?

OH, I don't know, they might commit a terrorist act that will bring the wrath of the world down upon them...

Oh. Wait, they totally did that.

The rest of the world no longer cares.

 

[Quasar44]

Let the Taliban do what they want
20! Yrs and nothing accomplished

 

[JoeB131]

Not the point you were arguing, Slick.

You were arguing that the Taliban should leave Bin Laden alone because he wasn't bothering them. In fact, prior to 9/11, they took the position that "We won't hand him over, but we will keep him from causing trouble', which they promptly broke as Bin Laden set up training camps for terrorists.

They'd have been much smarter to have captured Bin Laden, handed him over to the west with a nice bow.

But you are right, the rest of the world stopped caring. And I'm sure when they start making women wear veils again and start stoning teenage girls, the rest of the world will wring its hands about it.

As we have learned this isn't about Bin Laden. What we need to learn is to bugger off and mind our own business.

No, we need to pick our battles carefully. The window to win in Afghanistan was there, we just missed it.

Nobody heard you whining and bitching about leaving Afghanistan when Trump was talking about pulling out. You were cheering Trump on when he talked about pulling out, now all of a sudden you want to stay.

Nope, i never cheered that. I hate the Taliban.

Establishing a stable, democratic government in Afghanistan that wouldn't allow it to be a haven for terrorists.

Bush missed that opportunity by rushing off to get Saddam.
Obama made matters worse by turning a blind eye when Karzai stole the 2009 election.
