Belaqua on Afghanistan:
No, the US and its allies fought very hard to establish some sort of victory over the Taliban. In fact, I was drafted in 2002 and I was even asked if I wanted to go there. Many of us did not want to go there because of the imminent danger.
Than there was this completely disorganized retreat. With corrupt Afghan officials leaving the country with helicopters full of cash. Most of the “Afghan” army was completely corrupt. They seemingly had 350,000 soldiers while they only had about 100,000. With all the money coming from the US. When the Taliban arrived, they just left. The US retreat was also similar to Vietnam in 1975. All this chaos. All collaborators simply left behind (or facing the risk of expulsion due to Trump’s policies today). And all those helicopters, airplanes, tanks and hummers simply left behind as if gifted to the Taliban.
Let us not forget that some 2500 US soldiers died to take this country in the first place. So U.S. and European policy makers are known to make this type of poorly informed decisions in many instances. So call me emotional but that’s not how I would do things. I suppose it had a lot to do with the election of Trump after Obama. But I don’t know a lot about that either.

Europe is doubling its efforts for Ukraine. With or without the US, Ukrainians will keep getting the lasts pieces of European Military technology:

The only issue is this: Russians and Chinese may now have a possibility to study the newest NATO military technology and this in turn may put the US is a more difficult situation in the long run.
