Good day ladies and gentlemen. A new topic to discuss today.
Disclaimer*********
I am NOT from USA. I am a foreigner simply trying to be objective and create a discussion about the whole Afghanistan mess. With that said, I have no loyalties to any US political parties.
Alright, as for you Americans please try and be objective in how we approach this question. Let us put the blame in an objective manner if we can?
I will ask some questions for us to ponder about who gets the ultimate blame.
1) Was USA justified in invading Afghanistan? Could it have been handled another way?
2) Why did Bush shift focus on a false flag war when Taliban were on the ropes? Why didn't Bush send the same men and equipment like in the Iraqi invasion to finally destroy the Taliban or chase them out of the Country? Could Bush have won the war in the early stages but screwed it up instead?
3) For the Trump supporters here. Why didn't Trump pull the troops out under his watch? Trump had 5 years to do it. Did he pass the buck to Biden on purpose knowing it would be a failure in some way? No withdrawals are ever clean and easy to do in war zones.
Yes, we can criticize many things done wrong under Biden watch concerning the withdrawal. Was it always doomed to failure? I mean not like he could take back all the weapons from Afghan Army thinking they would mostly fall into Taliban hands. One would assume any President would expect Afghan Army to fight it out with US supplied weapons right? Not complete defeat and surrender in weeks right?
Does the ULTIMATE blame go to George Bush? Could Bush have won it in the early stages with an Iraqi style surge? Was every other President doomed to failure after Bush left as President? Would Trump have done a PERFECT withdrawal or done right way whatever that means?
What do you all think?
