Yes Panzer , like Iraq its another lost war .Just like Iraq?
Actually its the colilition and government in Kabul who control very little and are losing that little steadily .The Taliban has no control over anything
Whats it down to now ? less than a third of the country
Sounds like Vietnam ehThe US military has heavily armored humvee convoys driving around southern Afghanistan as we speak looking to provoke Taliban attacks just to crush them.
Which you ain't doing .The goal is - and should have always been - to keep the Taliban out of power.
Like a Saddam ?The best option would have been to prop up a relatively secular local strongmanThen again you do have Dostrum , a nice ally who changes allegience more aften than a hermit changes his robe and doesn't give a damn about anything apart from making money from the opium trade .
There is absolutely no way they will be able to retake and hold land any longer than the US allows them to.
They don't have to , all they have to do is wait .
