it's an endless war, but a lot cheaper and safer for our troops than an endless war on the ground |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 7:23 AM Author: talented alcoholic base friendly grandma The whole country could be Taliban but Kabul will not fall as long as there is any western presence because it is INSANELY heavily defended and there are massive US military installations throughout. Bagram, Eggers and the embassy. The embassy is relatively large a huge base with land offset the center of the city. I say all this knowing there is some chance I eat my words. The Taliban flourished in Afghanistan when they were supported by the Pakistan government (they still partly are). They are all pashtu and Pakistan would rather have a Taliban government to effectively push its border west. We keep the Taliban in check by continuing to offer carrots to the Pakistan leadership to cooperate with us |

Date: August 15th, 2018 7:51 AM Author: talented alcoholic base friendly grandma I don't know what the other guy is saying but one of the smartest hot_takes in my opinion is that we have sat our asses down inn afghanistan for a staging ground to (1) push Iran from the east in the event of a conflict and (2) push Pakistan from the west in the event of renewed India-Pakistan fighting. Recall that the Taliban flourished at the same time the India-Pakistan tensions ramped up in the mid and late 90s. You can make the argument that Pakistan is emboldened to push east when they have a huge retreat/safety buffer to the west.

|
Date: August 15th, 2018 7:49 AM Author: talented alcoholic base friendly grandma Those are different conflicts with different objectives, but Kabul and the resources of the central government are important to protect if your goal is to limit the organized projection of terror abroad by the Taliban. The same can't be said about Vietnam obviously and a situation where the entire country but for Saigon became communist territory would obviously be a favor. On top of that and maybe more to the point we couldn't have held Saigon indefinitely against a well supplied NVA conventional force. The Taliban could not take Kabul if we sat there indefinitely (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4052372&forum_id=2#36619638) |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 8:03 AM Author: gold chapel factory reset button the taliban werent projecting terrorism, they were letting terrorists use their land for training. im pretty sure they realize that this makes their lives a lot harder
it took 2 years for N Vietnam to take saigon after we stopped propping them up, so i think you're way off in your assessment and that the parallels between our role in the two conflicts are very similar. we were trying to win militarily while ignoring the politics (communism and islamism are much easier sells to toothless villagers than abstract things like "freedom and democracy"), so there's just absolutely no way we can win |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 10:24 AM Author: Wine Property so there's just absolutely no way we can win
No one is thinking of winning at this point. Not letting this end in defeat at manageable cost is the best outcome. That might mean conventional forces in Afghanistan for many years. |

Low cost, no exposure to fighting for the troops, and no terrorist operating base. The reality check is there's no way to have it all. |

A better way to prevent terrorism in the US would be to ban Muslim immigration. Case in point, see Poland. |

|
Date: August 15th, 2018 12:55 PM Author: Wine Property Shutting down Muslim immigration is a start. It will prevent future San Bernardino type attacks but not the terrorism against the US and West outside of the US.
You two act like women in denial about not being able to have it all. No conventional ground forces in Afghanistan, the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban, and no terrorism against the US. That isn't going to happen. |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 10:22 AM Author: Wine Property "we just need to keep their heads down and not allow them to train openly like pre-9/11 taliban did"
Doesn't seem like airpower is able to preoccupy terrorists enough to keep them from planning and training. In Yemen, Al-Qaeda is able to plan worldwide terror. In Pakistan the terrorist havens are just attacking India but it shows they are able to operate even with drones constantly circling overhead.
Not having any conventional forces on the ground is cheaper but it's not going to end terrorism in Afghanistan. |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 10:24 AM Author: gold chapel factory reset button does the taliban control most of yemen like in a-stan?
but apart from that the terrorists are not out climbing ropes and running obstacle courses like they were in a-stan before 9/11. i guarantee they are hiding from drones and satellites constantly
pakistan vs india is not relevant |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 10:27 AM Author: Wine Property does the taliban control most of yemen like in a-stan?
Al Qaeda has its rump of the country around the third largest city.
pakistan vs india is not relevant
India/Pakistan fighting each other is irrelevant but relevant to the idea that constant drone attacks don't impact terrorists enough to stop training and pulling off attacks outside of their area. |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 10:33 AM Author: gold chapel factory reset button AQ =/= taliban
Pakistan/India =/= CIA/USAF |
|
Date: August 15th, 2018 10:51 AM Author: Wine Property Al Qaeda and Taliban get along well. Taliban thought they were pious guys doing God's work and they both hated America. They will get along well in the future.
The CIA and military aren't sending drones in Pakistan to save India but the same terrorists target all infidels, the West and India. A CIA drone that kills a terrorist leader in Pakistan weakens the ability of the group to attack India too. But years of drone strikes show that the effect is not enough to prevent terrorists from launching attacks outside of Pakistan. |
