Maybe if we hadn’t just cut and run after the Russians retreated, we could have done some good there. Billions for arms but none for schools that they asked for.
Thank you for pointing that out. The Taliban is far more a creation of desperation and global neglect than the CIA. Allegations to the contrary are more about partisan bickering than understanding of Afghanistan. Few want to acknowledge the consequences of not nation building.
