  1. Interestingly - the US military recommended pulling out pf Afghanistan in 2002. They had overthrown the Taliban as punishment for 9/11, the Al Qaeda bases had been destroyed, and the longer they stayed, the more chance they would get sucked into a quagmire. It was Blair and some of the other European leaders who convinced the Americans to stay until Afghanistan magically turned into Switzerland.
