The only war left in Afghanistan is a CIVIL WAR between the Taliban and the Afghan government. The USA cannot and should not get involved in a civil war in Afghanistan.

The Taliban is a militia that has been thrown out of Pakistan. They have no place to go and they like being a militia rather than ridding themselves of weapons and going home to farm.

The reason the Taliban doesn't simply give up and go home is because the USA never rid the region of the poppy culture. The only sane time that exists in Afghanistan is the winter. It is too cold and miserable to carry out the drug war between the Taliban and the Haqquani network.

The other reason it is going to settle down in Afghanistan is because the USA won't be there to restock the munitions that is used to rob banks and set prisoners loose.

The place will go back to being a desolate country with wrecked military vehicles used as a playground. Sad, but, true.

Then some day one of the militia groups will become convinced they can invade Turkmenistan and they'll be sorry they crossed the boarder. Because Russia will go back to bombing the living hell out of the region. And it will be like old times before the Taliban and Russia paused long enough for the USA to attempt to tame them.

TROOPS OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, yeah. Be sure the USA military transports their war machines and munitions out of the country to a place like Turkey that will appreciate them and use them appropriately.

Nation Building doesn't work.

Oh, one other thing.

Since the USA found the poppy culture important to Afghanistan it might be a good idea to legalize things like heroine under the direction of doctors and health clinics that will attempt to treat the addicts. But, if the USA has QUALITY CONTROL over the drugs from Afghanistan maybe less people will die of drug overdoses in the USA. Oh, Methadone clinics? Most heroine addicts find methadone worse than heroine. The reason methadone is accepted for treatment is because the doctors and clinics have control over the quality.

If the drug cartels of Afghanistan and other places like Columbia now have legitimate control over the production of drugs, the people of the USA would be safer.

Just sayin.
