This was the thread I was looking for. The author keeps mentioning "that's another 3k people to evacuate" (the US military force). Get off it, dummy. We're trained to hop on a ride and didi mao. Look how fast they left last month
I'm for just flat hammering the Taliban. I know some expected a different answer from me
But that's about the Taliban and teh people of Afghanistan to me, not Afghanistan itself. Couldn't set a better ambush than luring them out into the open as they are.
We'd have to have a government that was conducting a war, not playing at it with politics though.
