Not to dig into this too much, but what I meant was that US wasn't there to permanently make Afghanistan a territory of USA.
- freeflight 5y agoThe US rather prefers to vassalize countries instead of straight up annexing as it used to, like with Hawaii or Texas. Already got enough states trying to take care of and some territories existing in weird places, so I doubt there is much incentive to add even more of that, except maybe Cuba.
