So, if I have this correctly, we are leaving Afghanistan without a "victory," no matter what anybody says. We are leaving one of the most corrupt governments, top to bottom, in charge of billions of dollars of our funds, and funds of other NATO countires, plus giving them Billions more over time after we leave, and tons of equipment, mainly used to haul dope. We are leaving our relationship with nuclear power Pakistant in worse shape than ever, and we've allowed Iran to increase their influence in Afgh. during our campaign. We have allowed Afghanistan to become the one of the largest, repeat, largest drug growers and processors in the world, with little NATO activity to interrupt their activity, which supports the Taliban's terrorist and guerilla efforts. Military commanders say that it would take another 150-200,000 troops and at least three years to defeat the Taliban, and that effort would also result in failure without getting control of the tribal areas of Pakistan, and the border territory with Iran, which, big secret, is used to provide literally tons of Iranian military gear, including IED's and advisors, to guess who?
