We also spent 20 years in Afghanistan blowing shit up as a result of some Saudis hijacking planes, then just left all the terps and their families to be killed by the Taliban.
The argument about invading Afghanistan was that the Taliban was in cahoots with Al Qaeda and were harbouring Osama bin Laden.
Whom we eventually found in Pakistan, after the boardwalk in Kandahar had been around for years. Instead of putting pressure on the royal family to turn over the black sheep we invaded a country of goat herders and poppy farmers. Bin Laden was killed in 2011 and that fuckin TGI Fridays didn’t close for like 5 years after, UBL was the excuse to fire up the military machine but its inertia makes too much money to stop just cause you got your target.
