PSA: "Taliban" are just the majority of Afghan people. It was the legitimate government before we invaded. It is basically EVERYONE of influence not a direct puppet of the US government. The Taliban did not plan or participate in 9/11. They did however allow Bin Laden to take up residence in their country knowing he was a dick faced terrorist. They were not blameless but they are also no threat to the US homeland in anyway.
Came here to say this. I was one of the first on the ground there and the taliban was really just the obstacle in the way of the terrorists. They was a side character. They can have that country back and force all the men to wear beards and not listen to music again. Its not our job to police the world.
We went over there because of terrorists training camps and the whole thing should have been wrapped up in a year. I cannot believe we are still there 20 years later

America always needs a boogeyman to fuel the war machine. Notice how the Middle East wars are winding down as anti-China talk picks up?
