I'm actually questioning whether it could've been done better, you're the one asserting that it's all or nothing and that the aftermath we see right now was 100% inevitable as long as we decided to leave the country at all. You have yet to substantiate that with anything beyond vague gestures to how ****ed the 20 year quagmire has been. But yeah, I'm the one being lazy by wondering whether maybe the **** I'm watching unfold couldn't have been handled better. Got it.

yes clearly my statement was very smug where as yours was as humble as Christ

. Keep giving me free psychoanalysis though i don't mind. Though of course you get what you pay for.

Yes it's better that we perpetually destabilize the region and oversee a civil war killing thousands every year so long as hate for us drives recruitment. If you care so much I'll pay for a one way ticket to Afghanistan so you can go fight the Taliban.
