Told You So

As I explained previously, the reason why the US had troops in Afghanistan for twenty years was to prevent exactly this.

Americans couldn’t appreciate their own greatness, convinced themselves that they needed to be very small and expiate non-existent sins, and now we have two conflicts involving three nuclear powers happening at the same time.

They can be left, right, it doesn’t matter. They went to school where they were told that their history is sinful and they should stop participating. Here’s the result.

    after India struck three Pakistani airbases earlier tonight

    This part is not correct. Pakistan fired a ballistic missile at Delhi which was thankfully intercepted. India retaliated by hitting their bases.

    I’m flying to India to see my dad next week. Doesn’t seem like a good idea at the moment.

    Are you saying that you didn’t want us to pull out of Afghanistan? Was that your opinion when Obama was president? When Trump was president for the first time?

    Did you criticize or praise Trump for wanting to end the war in Afghanistan during his first term?

      I had no idea why we were in Afghanistan until I talked to somebody who is extremely knowledgeable in the region and he explained how this works. This was years ago. Now I’m explaining to others.

      This was a mistake as ideated by Trump and as carried out by Biden. This is a big bipartisan mistake.

        Had you posted about it before? I don’t remember and the topic sounds interesting.
