Powell was the one that sold us on WMD. He was lied to, he regrets his part in it. No one else could have sold it and been believed.

As far as not knowing if they really had them or not, chemical weapons are not hard to make and they had in the past. Not hard to hide the making of them in a closed society.

Please explain. I seemed to have a memory laps.
What do you want me to explain? Obama supporting Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki, Al-Nusra (now they called themselves Tahrir al-Sham), Hizb ut-Tharir and a lot other groups now working for Turkey who invaded Syria now? Didn`t it happen? Ah, wait, Obama is republican, sorry.

We never had a chance. Just like Russia and...

Some of the invaders in the history of Afghanistan include the Maurya Empire, the Greek Empire of Alexander the Great of Macedon, Rashidun Caliphate, the Mongol Empire led by Genghis Khan, the Timurid Empire of Timur, the Mughal Empire, various Persian Empires, the Sikh Empire, the British Empire, the Soviet Union, and most recently a coalition force of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) troops, the majority from the United States, which entered the country in the first-ever invocation of NATO's Article 5 "an attack on one is an attack on all" following the September 11 attacks in the United States.
The graveyard of armies.

I was shocked at how fast it jumped back to be honest, but I have a great group of very smart people doing mine. I have a different account that I control and that’s doing horrible right now, I don’t have the time needed to stay on top of shit.
Five bucks a day in no load muni's starting when you are 20 will make you a millionaire at 60. No thinking involved. I didn't start saving until I was 30. And we built a house, then bought a house. . . . .

Let them go back to living in the stone age like the savages they are.

They're a bunch of fucking idiots. Twenty years of military training and millions of dollars worth of modern weapons and they just drop their guns turn around and run from the taliban. Now the Taliban is fully armed with weapons and vehicles courtesy of the United States.

It didn't have to end this way. Had we not kept that corrupt piece of shit Hamid Karzai in power for so long Afghanistan might have had a chance. He was flying cash out as fast as we could fly it in. Literally hundreds of millions in cash ended up in the hands of Karzai and his family. And everyone in Afghanistan knew it.

We should have destroyed every vehicle and weapon before leaving. Everywhere we go we end up arming the enemy. It's ridiculous.

Next up... Another conflict somewhere. There has to be one. There are companies that need to make weapons to survive. Profits, profits, profits...

Afghanistan is a complex place. Even the Taliban has to make allegiances with the different groups on the ground. But I would send a B52 over and make some of the military hardware there slag. Might piss off a few but is not like it will matter much now.

China is going to recognize the Taliban as the official government and the One Belt One Road Initiative will have fully guaranteed security..... China is going to make everyone in the ME get along in the name of $$$$$.... A different approach that the Western Imperialism style .... I have a feeling helping countries build their nations infrastructure rather faking than Big bad Boogie man will be much more productive.... Asia Minor getting a boost from Asia Major ....

In the larger scheme of things Afghanistan is insignificant. It sucks to be a normal person in Afghanistan just wanting to live a normal life but it sucks for many people all over the world. Life sucks for many Americans right here in the United States. I'm not going to lose any sleep. I feel for the women that will have to wear burqas and the girls that will not be allowed to go to school. But the crime rate will go down as the Taliban practice Sharia law so thieves will get their hands cut off like they did before. They had public executions and amputations in the soccer stadium. It's going to suck if you live there. Fortunately I don't.

Nobody has ever witnessed the type of politics China is gaming.... they've invested Trillions into the Silk Road rebuild.... making everyone on the route get along with one another is the only way it will work without issues.... We the US took our Trillions and wasted it with nothing to show.... Globalist run this World ...
