This is the commission who said Ghani, with Hazara and Uzbek running mates, a christian wife, and impeccable pro-american and western credentials, lost almost all of northern and central Afghanistan (besides Dostums enclave), but made up for it with landslide numbers is the deep southern provinces like Helmand. Right?

It means that the US military is 100% incapable of accomplishing any objective aside from “bomb this preschool” but we already knew that. speaking as someone who once fell for the poverty draft, please allow me to confirm for you that the us military exists mainly as a justification for why we need to pay the cousins and buddies of policymakers in order to provide contract support services trauma and conditioning camp for poor people seeking some form of upward mobility, trauma and immiseration engine for occupied populaces, all of that is important and used to be about equivalent with supply appropriations skimming but things changed in the 1950s and now all of that other poo poo is really more on the level of "since we have to keep spending all our money on the hammer, and we have these other problems, we might as well..."
