- jonathankoren 7y agoWell, perhaps the Americans and the rest of NATO can go back to ignoring it. Afghanistan is a country that has been in a civil war for over 40 years. It’s a tragedy for sure, especially when you compare photos of Kabul in 1979[0] to today, but ultimately no one is going to impose a peace there. Neither the Soviets nor the Americans could.

- jacquesm 7y agoOf course there won't be. I just watched Trump in a press conference say that (literal quote) "If bad things happen there after we leave we will be back with a huge force". You really can't make this stuff up.
