Многие из крупнейших противопожарных самолетов штата Орегон недоступны, потому что министерство обороны отправило их в Афганистан для участия в войне, которая длилась 20 лет.
По словам Ли Кэмпа, мир, по-видимому, имеет чрезвычайно, смехотворно, смехотворно плохое время, это последнее время в Афганистане.
This is not a column defending Donald Trump. Across my career, I have said more positive words about the scolex family of intestinal tapeworms than I have said about Donald Trump.

America’s relationship with the Taliban has always been determined by how useful they are at advancing US interests in the region and the Trump administration’s recent efforts to make “peace” with the group are no exception.
President Trump, who is up for re-election this year, has added another “peace” deal to his credentials, a deal that the president, his re-election campaign and his supporters have promoted as proof that Trump is willing and able to resist the U.S. foreign policy establishment and its ceaseless push to keep the U.S. embroiled in “forever

Катастрофа в Афганистане — это только один случай в коренной ошибочной политике США с последствиями для всего мира. Новые квази-правительства, созданные США «сменой режима» в стране за страной, оказались более коррумпированными, менее законными и менее способными контролировать территорию своей нации, чем те, которые США разрушили.
The trove of U.S. “Lessons Learned” documents on Afghanistan published by the Washington Post portrays, in excruciating detail, the anatomy of a failed policy, scandalously hidden from the public for 18 years.
