If we're going to talk unrealistic solutions, I wish we could go back in time and prevent the US from arming and training the mujahideen, hopefully culminating in a secular, left-leaning Afghanistan on par with what Iran was on track for before our meddling.

If we're going to talk reality, though, I hope the Taliban are successful, that their deals with China bear fruit, that Afghanistan enjoys peace for the first time in half a century, and that the Taliban take a devolved approach to governance that allows these villages to organically modernize as they become interconnected through trade, roads, and cultural exchange with the urbanized parts of the country.

Military intervention isn't unique to the republicans, and I doubt Al Gore of all people would have been able to break the wave of warhawks angling for invasions.
