@abdulsalamibrahim8581 : USA could not defeat the Taliban because the Taliban ran away in 2001 and hid in northern Pakistan - and waited 20 years for the US troops to go home. Pakistan refused to allow US troops to defeat the Taliban on its own soil, and also refused to defeat the Taliban itself. So it's all Pakistan's fault.

@vinayakpatil355 : Correction: The US Army didn't abandon any of its own weapons in Afghanistan. The weapons captured by the Taliban belonged to the Afghan Army. Although the weapons were manufactured in the USA, they were not US government property - they were the property of the government of Afghanistan.

@bestopinion9257 : Exactly. And 2 US aircraft carriers are capable of taking on the entire Syrian air force.

 @willrobinson9767 : No. A full division of S400 with 72 launchers has 384 missiles. That's not the same thing as tracking 384 targets at once.

@willrobinson9767 : Actually, the S400 can only guide missiles at 20 targets at once, not 350. Anyway, this isn’t WW2, it’s the 21st century. No air force can put up 350 aircraft in the same area all at once, not even the USAF. Even 35 aircraft would be a huge air raid in today’s world! So there would never be any need to track that many targets at once in the real world.
