Ah yes, establishing a democratic country by pillaging it's resources, letting the drug industry grow and then giving the whole country wrapped up in a bow to the Taliban. At least your country's propaganda budget isn't money wasted.
I'm not praising the Taliban, a group btw built by the US. I'm saying if they managed to so easily destroy the opium industry, there is no reason the US couldn't on their "peace keeping" mission. Except there is a reason, and knowing the CIAs track record, it's easy to guess what it is.
But keep drinking the Kool aid. "America number one. It's not called pillaging if we are bringing democracy to savages. Our guns only shoot rainbows and we only bomb civi city centers when they deserve it."
I guess all logic goes out the window if you can utter the word tankie just like in the 70s when you could ignore a person points by screaming commie. Not like that word is being instilled in you specifically so you can blindly follow your leaders. I bet you don't even know just how far down your face is bent.
