I thought the days of empire building were over?? It seems not. A quality article as always @doitvoluntarily My #politics tag mentor ;)

the logic behind it would be either russia is doing it, protecting assets, fighting terrorism or whatever explanation they can pull out their ass, yeah protecting freedoms :)

Blah, blah, blah, blah etc etc....

those opium fields must need good guarding...

Just imagine if those funds were used for development and employment plans...this world would be a better place.

well America is pretty developed so they have to keep their opposition down, can't have someone equal you, it's sad they are destroying themselves with this bullshit, it's not the worst thing they have done, still it ranks pretty high up, the sad part is how it divides people in their own country, many are tired of the endless wars that were never official, but are pretty much either cover ops or occupations.

seems not safe

I agree to each and everything said in this post. There's no threat to American's freedom from Afghanistan. There has been no benefit from the war which has lasted more than a decade and trillions of dollars have been wrongfully spent while people are struggling with health and education affordability.

No to stupid wars!!!

This is not keeping Americans safe rather families will lose loved ones who will die in unending war. Its time for the Afgan people to take care of themselves with training support for their intelligence officers and military.

Yep, looks like the heroin epidemic is only going to get worse...fucking hell.

How true! I would send John McCain to Afghanistan first. Without ticket for return.

Good post lovely friend ..... hope this stupid wars stop and we start concentrating on world hunger ,and createa a way to have a good stay on this planet for us our children and our childrens little ones 💖
