    If you had 20 years to prepare for war
    Would you do better than afghans did vs the taliban.

    What would you have done differently.

    What should the afghans have done.

      4-1 numbers over Taliban and didn't even fire a shot. Now their wives and daughters get to be raped while they are torchered and killed.

      Makes no sense to me. At least die standing if things go the wrong way.

        You have the question all wrong. The Afghans are not fighting the Taliban. The US is. Afghanistan is a province of the US.

        All the preparation has been done by the US.

        What should the US have done differently, probably not destroy the country entirely in the 1980s.

            People are always upset that the Afghans will not do the US fighting for them. Would you fight for a crooked US govt if you were an Afghan? What are they going to do for you? What has the US ever done for anyone?

              The USA made it worse. Just like they do every time they try to help someone.

              Surrounding countries need to protect themselves. Protect their borders.

              Not, the USA’s problem

                Why fight? It's easier to stick to the plan and migrate all over the world to spread islam

                  I get the idea that this war was similiar to Viet Nam. (Playing hide and seek)

                    I heard the Taliban will bring diversity into their tribal fighting force. Recruiting not only women, but transgenders, gays and White people. Appearance is more important than ever for the new Taliban and Al Qaeda.

                    No more throwing homosexuals off of buildings greater than 8 stories.

                    Stoning to be replaced by Russian roulette.

                    Dragging girls off for marriage will still be allowed but not on weekends

                        The guerilla warfare part for sure. I always thought America should have bombed Hanoi to rubble. Get the leader and the capital.

                        Why America was afraid to ambush Charlie on the Ho Chi Minh trail doesn’t make sense. It would have been easier to fight Cambodia,Laos, and Viet Nam if you had perimeters established than to fight North Viet Nam who also got in behind American troops by slipping around behind and pinning the troops in the middle
