Patient.............LOLSuper powers fall from within............from being stretched too thin..........from corruption from within............The problem is that the situation is so screwed up no one really knows what to do there.........the Middle East is quicksand to everyone that has ever been there........has always ended badly there.............We abandoned the Kurds once & they came back & fought with us again, have no answer to what to do, just stating a fact.
No one has ever really figured it out including Ghandi..........No one ever wins there but the under taker.
no one won over the roman empire either----The REICHS---
AND THE CALIPHATE
Rome was a super power of the day..........still the same.........history repeating itself as always.........
Just as the Caliphate repeats itself as always...........
I am not so PATIENT and FATALISTIC as are you
Had I been in charge after 9/11 Toro Bora wouldn't exist anymore..........nor would the Taliban in that country.....I would have killed everything there including the ants to send a message.........and saved us 17 years of War there....................You don't occupy the Middle East.........you temporarily beat them into the ground like a tent post.........then leave and give them nothing to shoot back at......
Would have saved us a lot of time, blood and money.........but politicians fight political wars........why we are stuck there now.
