ReplyDeleteExhibit A as to why the US cannot win in Afghanistan.
To win Afghanistan we would need to win in Pakistan, The US public would have to be convinced and that ain't happening.
It is not the military's fault that we cannot win. It is the US body politic's fault. We are going to have a civil war. Democrats are not going to give us an option to decline.
When The Democrat Speaker of the House says
"So, when they admit that, and have some suggestions that are worthy of consideration -- but so far they were trying to get away with murder, actually -- the murder of George Floyd,"
There is not a civil society.
Democrats and their media allies, a bunch of incendiaries, say that the Republicans have a a new police bill just because of the riots.
In truth Senator Rick Scott started the bill last year way before the riots. But you know Democrats, they lie.
Pelosi's lie should not be a shocker. When Senate Leader Harry Reid said that a little bird told him that Mitt Romney did not pay his taxes, he did not apologize before or after the lection.
Harry Reid lied about Mitt Romney’s taxes. He’s still not sorry. - Washington Post
Harry Reid’s appalling defense of his attack on Mitt Romney’s tax record
"Is there a line he wouldn’t cross when it comes to political warfare?"
“I don’t know what that line would be,” - Reid.
If Democrats win, Moscow is going to be a smoking, radioactive hole.
How? Why? Once Democrats win and suppress all dissent the US will not be a big enough and box for them. The Iron Law of Oligarchy will apply. Ask Hari.
And of course no Republican President is going to be able to convince enough Americans to War against Pakistan for their stab in the back. A Democrat President maybe could, but with a Republican President, he will be opposed every step of the way.
Best to pull out and let Russia worry about its' soft southern under belly. Let China worry about rat lines from Afghanistan or the other stans into Western China.
We hope that Imran Khan will soon join Bin laden as a martyr.
