  1. 20 years fighting a war against goat herders and at the end of it the goat herders own more territory for their goats than at the start. It’ll still be trumpeted as a win for the USA though, and no mention of the huge increase in poppy production in U.S. controlled areas or how all that opium has been getting into the United States

  2. Also about how they fought a heroic war against goat herders and, erm, “won”. You know, like they won in Vietnam

  4.  @perhaps579  if they take over the government they'll be lawful. Like how it's lawful for the police and fbi to use violence and intimidation

  5.  @perhaps579  lol so international law trumps national law now does it? That's an interesting perspective from an American. It doesn't really matter, the Taliban have already routed the American trained afghan army who have fled to tzjakistan, they've made the biggest one day gains of territory by any force in the history of Afghanistan. 19 years of war and occupation and they couldn't do squat against the Taliban

  9.  @matthewevans5486  and all the other countries house huge numbers of us nuclear weapons and troops which makes them a primary target if the cold War goes hot which is exactly what the us wants, it wants the hot war to be fought in Europe not in the US, so yeah they shouldn't have to pay to be a target for Russia so the us gets off, the us should be paying countries for making them a target

  10.  @matthewevans5486  and while we're at it us troops and their spouses have been getting away with rape and running people over age killing them with absolute impunity for 70 years in countries like Germany and the UK, who wants to pay for that
